He should go, but at the end of the Tour not half way through.

Question marks were raised when the squad was announced. 2 wingers & 1 centre. Injuries to players in the Grand Final probably had a say in that. Markinson & Percival surly would of both be in the 24 to begin with. The 2,3,4,5 pick themselves with the Squad that was named.

Wane would certainly add more passion (Surly though playing for your county is enough to fire you up) but would it be more attractive Rugby or just the same.

Graham is passed it
Hill never has offered anything

G.Burgess & Watts should be in the 17 nevermind the 24.

Hodgson has never really set the world alight on the international stage.

Next week...

Lomax or Widdop

Coote (He is in the squad and a back, saves player a backrower out of position!)
Hardarker
Conner
McGillvary

Widdop or Lomax
Hastings

T.Burgess
Clark
Graham (he won't drop the captain)
Whitehead
Bateman
Philbin

Subs
Williams or Trueman
Jones
Walmsley
Hill - (no other prop!)

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.

Did I read that right? Lomax at centre ?

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.
