Disagree about 2,3 and 5. And 1 as well but I think thats just cause I don't like lee smith

Cudjoe and Riley on the wings for me. Only a friendly and it will be good to see how they can do. They've both had a great start to the season.

why dont you like smith

Does it really matter?

Even a side as weak as England will see off the French.


This fixture is a total waste of time

like your posts then

Quite the opposite.

Barry Mckenzies erudite posts are revered by many people.... people in high places too.




Usually ones who are about to jump.


Seriously though... what is the point of this fixture???

southstander4life says there is alos no point in the fixture especially when Leeds vs Quins is on the same night another f*ck up by the RFL

Relax mate....Leeds could put out 13 players from the local school for the mentally bewildered and still turn Harlequins over.

I suppose its to raise the profile of the international game, albeit a waste of time, i would prefer england to field young and rising players.

i hope no Leeds players get called up the England fixture is a joke

the first ever international game was on the same day as a regular fixture
it's tradition!

So are sprouts at Christmas but it doesnt make them taste any better

I don't think it is a waste of time, it should never be on the same weekend as a regular season game, and Wales, Scotland, Ireland and AN Other should play on the same day too. I think more internationals are needed. When needs to be sorted though.
You're right, sprouts are hanging!
