Quote: Newton-Le-willows-Warrior "so with ellis,burgess,morley,westwood all likely to be out england could be looking at a team like
1. Sam Tomkins
2. Josh Charnley
3. Michael Shenton
4. Chris Bridge
5. Ryan Hall
6. Gareth Widdop
7. Danny Brough
8. James Graham
9. James Roby
10. Jamie Peacock
11. Joel Tomkins
12. Chris Heightington
13. Sean O'Loughlin
14. Kevin Sinfield
15. Gareth Carvell
16. Lee Mossop
17. Luke Robinson
Move O'Loughlin into the second row when Sinfield comes on.
Farrell, Wilkin and Hock in back up.
Mossop must be in the side as 4th prop he has been immense this season and would stand up big time against the aussies and kiwi packs.'"
I would prefer:
1. Sam Tomkins
2. Josh Charnley
3. Michael Shenton
4. Chris Bridge
5. Ryan Hall
6. Gareth Widdop
7. Danny Brough
8. James Graham
9. James Roby
10. Eorl Crabtree
11. Gareth Hock
12. Ben Westwood
13. Sean O'Loughlin
14. Joel Tomkins
15. Gareth Carvell
16. Lee Mossop
17. Luke Robinson
No Place for Peacock any more in my book unfortunately, too old. Joel on the bench gives us injury cover for the backs as well as a rotation for the 2nd row. Hock can be pushed into the front row if necessary. Westwood should be back for the 4 nations. Crabtree has been coached well in a good side all season and has looked good for England in the past.
