IMO I think Sinfield is a good player for Leeds but he doesn't seem to be able to always produce it on the international stage. I can't recall one match I have seem him play that he really stood out.

I thought he played ok last week against Aus but the problem I see is I never once thought he was going to take the line on and beat that 1st defender. I wouldn't even say he is the best we have in that position.

I don't agree with people changing nationality so this Brough saga doesn't bother me and don't even get me started on Chase! (if we were going to name a overseas half back in the England team why wasn't it Dobson!)

I'm more concerned that M.Smith or Myler both of whom teams made the GF weren't named anywhere near the England Team.

Is it because Sinfield tends to have a good kicking game? or with a Squad with a lot of younger players he offers international experience in the big competitions?

The team that England should be built around in IMHO is:

1. Tomkins
6 Widdop
7 M Smith
13 Burgess

I struggle to see the relevance ??? My point is KS isn't world class and your reply is that I'm wrong because other English halves aren't world class ???

We posted 20 points against the Aussies in game one despite having very little of the ball or field position in the second period.

We then put 30 on Ireland in as many minutes in the second game, before cruising to victory.

I fail to see what is wrong with this current structure.Our main concern should be cutting out silly errors and penalty's in the wrong area of the field.Do that and we we won't be far away.

The relevance is that it doesnt really matter whether hes World Class or not if he is the best we have!

So you not read my input in the thread before posting then no ???

When did I say you were wrong?

It was you who spoke about how he wouldn't get in the australian national team so I think it's perfectly relevant to discuss which other english half backs would do, who do you think was the last english half back who was good enough to play for them?
