Tbf to Paul he's been outstanding for us since he moved, didn't see it coming but he has.

Thought Brett Kearney would be a shoe in for the Exiles side as I think he is a far superior player to Brett Hodgson at full back.

Agreed. Kearney's one Country Origin cap in Aus shows up the 200 NRL games & 6 NSW caps that Hodgson achieved was just a flash in the pan. So what if he has kicked 800 goals & scored 130 tries as well.

You are Steve McNamara and I claim my £5.
I am talking about on current form, not what some did 10 years ago as that seems to be the basis of picking the current England squad. Showed last night when Kris Welham outshone the always terrible Leeroy Cudjoe.

Selfishly given our injury situation I'm not too disappointed to see our players have been overlooked. However if we're to prove to be an attractive proposition for new signings whether they be kids or established players we need to show that coming to Bradford isn't a barrier to representative honours.

The only way we'll manage that is for us to get in the 8 and string together some consistent performances and improve. Injuries have made that very difficult this year but hopefully if we sort the finances out and get no more knocks we can start to get players more in the thoughts of international selectors.

From what I've seen, only Lulia deserves a shot for the Exiles. That said, I don't think any of the Leeds players would be in if McNamara had been looking at current form (aside from Burrow and maybe Hall).
