https://www.skysports.com/rugby-league/ ... aland-test
John Bateman, George Burgess, Tom Burgess, Daryl Clark, Jake Connor, Oliver Gildart, James Graham, Chris Hill, Josh Hodgson, Jonny Lomax, Tommy Makinson, Jermaine McGillvary, Richie Myler, Sean O'Loughlin, Mark Percival, Luke Thompson, Sam Tomkins, Elliott Whitehead, George Williams.
So what’s the team from that. Looks as though Bateman will be SR.

| Not selected. McGilvray & Makinson on the wings presumably.

That’s not far off what Bennet will pick imo though Lomax, as he has already said will start at FB with Tomkins missing out. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Lomax moving to the halves for the second test in place of Myler.

It's scary that Williams and Myler are the best we have at 6 & 7.
We have plenty up front and enough quality in the three quarters but, our 6 & 7 wont scare anyone.
I'd rather have Tomkins in the halves just to give us some "x" factor and Lomax at 1.

They aren’t the best but they aren’t injured either unlike other options.

I’d imagine Widdop & Gale are currently first choice. Even with those injured I’m sure there must be a better option than Myler?

| He's said Lomax will start ahead of Tomkins at FB, Makinson ahead of Johnstone and he was talking up Jake Connor, so I reckon we're looking at:
1. Lomax
2. McGillvary
3. Percival
4. Gildart
5. Makinson
6. Williams
7. Myler
8. Graham
9. Hodgson
10. T.Burgess
11. Bateman
12. Whitehead
13. O'Loughlin
14. G.Burgess
15. Connor
16. Hill
17. Thompson
Not what I would pick, but what I expect.

| I'm surprised Tomkins isn't in the mix because he has a lot of experience and shared wavelengths of Madge and the Kiwi's and would have that extra bit of anticipation compared to Lomax. IMO he also has better game management.

Swap the centres around and you may well be right.

| I'll be disappointed if Lomax starts at 1 and Tomkins isn't featured. It's a really key position for England's attack given the gulf between their 3/4s and that of NZ. I haven't seen anything to convince me that Lomax can consistently be an attacking threat from FB at international level.
In the last series v NZ England had recently crowned MOS Zak Hardaker at 1 and he was made to look well out of his depth with ball in hand.

Who then?
And Myler hasn’t done too bad considering how poor a team he was in this year, up near the top of the try assists list.

I would have Tomkins in over Lomax because Lomax is crap full stop, show pony nothing more, he is only inn the side because for some inexplicable reason he is on a central contract. i would have Ratcford in over both of them and he is not all that.
