| I suspect that now Keiron Foran is playing in the halves, alongside Benjamin Marshall, New Zealand will have more direction in attack, and a much better tactical kicking game than last week. With the brilliant Roger Tuivasa-Sheck at full back, and a strong pack of forwards, facing a Great Britain side without Samuel Burgess, New Zealand could run away with this game.
Great Britain needs Canberra hooker Joshua Hodgson to lift his game, and the two Canberra second rowers John Bateman and Elliot Whitehead to play at their very best, if Great Britain is to have a chance.

| Wayne Bennett still has the skills necessary to enable Great Britain and England to win. However he needs Thomas Makinson and Mark Percival to be available, and he also must select Samuel Tomkins in the starting 13.
I would select Widdop at full back, Tomkins and Hastings in the halves, and John Lomax in the centres, in place of the mediocre Zachary Hardaker, to partner Mark Percival. That team would have the attacking talent necessary to win.

| I am far from convinced that Lomax is international standard. Has he ever done anything of note for England / GB?

Well he can't exactly have done much for GB considering the side has been dormant for the last 12 years.

Used to love the old GB v Aus Ashes 3 test series. Last played in England in 2003 and here in Aus in 1992. Was at all games played here since 1970(our last series win). Great memories of some truly great players.
