| On the Aussie playing shirts right sleeve, some of the players had a brown badge, others a white one and some nothing at all. What were the badges, does anyone know?

He might not do well at international level, but let's at least give him a chance before deciding he's not good enough.

Yes, this. I just hope Bennett does give Gale the shot; he deserves it.

Hardaker isn't in the England squad and rightly so. He's played like a basket-case all season long and looked way out of his depth during his stint in the NRL.'"
Sam Burgess and James Graham would get into the Aussie or New Zealand side. I'm not sure anybody else would, George Burgess maybe when he's on form.

and some might say that yours is too, which is particularly sad as it's a forum for discussion

| Gale is great for Cas, but no Wayne Bennett coached team is gonna play like Cas.
Hope Issac Luke is banned, that was nasty.

'There's only one code of rugby.': |
|
| IMO at the end of the day whether we win or lose is all down to 1-7. Our forwards can match theirs, both in terms of pace, power and skill. We can get into try-scoring situations, but time after time our half-backs and outside backs just don't deliver. When the pressure's on and there are 10mins left to win a test match, who's your money on - Widdop and Williams or Thurston and Cronk?
Hopefully, now there's a fully fit Hodgson at 9 we might be able to cause them a few more problems. In Super League, the players have to cope with close games and real pressure a handful of times a season. In the NRL it's probably 4/5 times that, if not more when you take into account Origin. This is where Bennett comes in and hopefully his experience and guidance can hopefully get our back line switched on and get the team over the finishing line.
