| Yes, as a Saints fan I was worried how he turned the Wire game last week. 2 touches of genius tonight and that was the difference.
Must be in the England team.

| Turned the game tonight. Definitely worth a spot in the England squad.

| Agreed. Think his form has to be rewarded and earned him a spot on the bench

| He had a England spot for me before last night but now it's a must. He's found a role that really suits him. I'm not sure he's even a fan and I think he may be playing on anger as he wants to start but on this form he'd cause literally in defence in the world problems.
I just hope we go out in this four nations and throw it about. Our attacking weapons look pretty special at the minute with guys like Sam Tomkins, Chase, Roby, Burrow, Reed etc.
Let's have a dig.

| I think that the set up for the Hall try was even better than his try. The dummy to fool Meli was outstanding.

| Blinding player, loads of heart and skill. Hope he starts at scrum half for England.

Would any other Super League player have taken a dummy like that though. The attendance nearly increased by one!

Good job we don't base our judgement on players based on one game.

He isn’t bossing games as a typical half back would do and scrum half is a more competitive position for England now than for a long time with Brough, Chase or Lomax in the mix to partner Widdop (who would be a shoe in at 6 I think). I would love to see Lomax getting a run at 7 in one of the games – I think he can step up
Burrow is in arguably the best form of his career and this is in the role of impact sub – coming off the bench as the big men get a little tired and tearing them apart, why would we change this for England where he would be perfect coming off the bench
As it stands today we could go with the following for the creative roles I think
1. Tomkins
6. Widdop
7. Chase
9. Roby
13. Sinfield
14. Burrow
Or... play a running loose forward in the Heighington mould instead of Sinfield if we think we have enough creativity

It could be that Leeds wouldn't have been in so much bother early on in the game had Burrows started. Anyhow, he's back to his best and even if he doesn't start I hope he's on the bench.
