Shows what happens when you have an NRL coach in charge who knows little about SL.
I'd rather have a young English second rower like Greenwood or Ward in the squad over two ageing Aussies.
Apart from those two not too much to wrong with the squad and means no club loses more than two players for their SL games.

| All I hope is that these 2 players are in the squad purely due to them being based in Australia and to minimise the impact on the teams in SL from losing more players. Glad McMeekin is in though, hope he gets some game time

Utter nonsense. What is the point of putting a 35 year old in the squad unless, as I fear, he is actually in the running for the WC squad?

That would be my 17. I would probably guess he would go with this other than maybe Tom Burgess in for one of Walmsley or Taylor. I think Heighington and McQueen will just be named as cover as it's pointless flying out someone like Stevie Ward if he's no intention of playing him. Just had to pick pretty much any NRL forwards who were eligible for England.

| I'm assuming McQueen and Heighington are 19th and 20th man and thus just in there to cover for short notice injuries whilst they are based in aus, rather than flying over two guys we know won't play. Absolute joke if they actually make the side ahead of Farrell. Could we not give younger guys a chance in this one ahead of O'Loughlin (34) and Hall (32)? I'd have rather seen Farrell and J.Burgess/Johnstone get a go with a view to the future.

| Will our players be carrying White flags?
Why pick any English players, when we could have a team of Australians? why stop at McQuuen?
Who's to blame for us not being able to produce 20 players that are capable of playing for their country?

You just moan about absolutely anything. McGillvary has always been good whenever he's played for England, he just so happens to play in a rubbish team. Not much he can do about that when he's a winger and not a half back.

it seems that its hard to shift those already in possession of an international shirt. on the same basis tom burgess will probably get in ahead of scott taylor which at the moment is just wrong

| We should pick the strongest 17 players eligible to play, regardless of where they were born, just like every single other country does.

Because he's a good winger?
