I'm not turning this into a club vs club row but I think people are being harsh on the Wigan lads.
O'Loughin has played 4 games since August, he's not 100 percent match fit but he's the perfect loose forward a leader, can take the ball up & can distribute, he will improve with every game and is a key part of England's pack.
McIlroum is a very big defender and a very good distributor. He's not going to do the scooting the burrow does or Rob but we do need something different- he's like a terrier in the middle and gets stuck in.
Farrell did as much tonight as Ablett has done in 2 games.
I don't understand the criticism for Charnley. He's got speed to burn, everyone is forgetting his reactions for his try against the Aussies, he should come back in over Briscoe for me.

Those Nrl.com ratings quoted above seem about right to me.

I'd say the same but Dally seems to have mentioned it already for me.

So that's two NRL.com sets of ratings I've seen - one for an England win (yesterday) and one for a defeat (against Australia). The captain's got 8.5 and 8 out of 10 respectively.

Are people starting to understand why Kevin Sinfield is in the side now?

Be quiet, won't you?

I think they should send McIllorum home now we all know its Roby, Burrow and Sinfield from now on in.
