Quote: i hate pies "The problem is, Widdop is a shoe in and rightly so. Then we have Hardaker and Tomkins who both need to be in pivotal positions, which leaves no room for Gale. And out of the 4, he is 4th best.'"
If we're picking on form then Sam Tomkins won't get in the squad and rightly so.
Hardaker has eclipsed Tomkins this year and should be at Full Back for England, anything else would be criminally incompetent from McNamara.
Brough apart, Gale has been the best Scrum Half in SL this year and that's coming from a Wakefield supporter who has no love for Castleford. That should mean a Gale/Widdop partnership which looks decent to me.
