Irrelivence. He's played for Scotland, he's Scottish.

Jarryd Hayne

Danny Brough.

Born Dewsbury 15 Jan 1983.


Dewsbury (I believe) is in England somewhere


Danny is not Scottish.


He only played for Scotland because he wasn't good enough for England.


And if you aren't good enough for England....then god help you

I like that at one point he wasnt good enough for England, but they are going backwards so fast that he now is more than good enough for England!

Its not irrelavent, because HE is eligable for England and wants to play for England, not Scotland....

Who isnt good enough for England???

I know he eligable, but that wasn't my point. The fact that he chose to play for Scotland should make him uneligable, now just because he feels like it, he shouldn't be allowed to change nations.

Yes, but out in the non-theoretical world we all live in he is allowed.

I agree with you, but unfortunately he is allowed to. He isn't doing anything wrong officially.

just morally,

You'd have to ask him about that.

why, you trying to say he's not got any.

Sorry mate, I don't bite.

I agree, he shouldnt be able to play for England now, but the rules state he can. I hate how these players just chop and change, so they can play Internationals. The WC was the best example of this. So many players playing for the lesser nations just so they can play in the WC, and then jump ship afterwards.

let him play . its all good in rugby league. its all about mateship

I want to bum Jarryd so badly. Oooooh, Jarryd Hayne. I love him I love him I love him so so so much. So very much.

Anybody says anything bad about our Jarryd and they'll get MMA because Ive got superior hand speed and take down skills.

why is he doing something morally wrong?

He opted to play for Scotland at a time when his chances of playing for England were much more remote yet the platform of international games would offer him a pathway to Great Britain selection and games against Australia and New Zealand.

The Rugby football league then moved the goalposts by disbanding Great Britain and therefore removing any possibility of any representatives from the Celtic nations playing against the top two in the world.

The only way to restore that pathway is to become eligible for England and therefore create the possibility of playing in the four Nations.

Removing Great Britain was no small thing, had the Rugby league made their intentions known to players like Danny Brough etc they might never have aligned themselves with other countries.

The fault here lies not with the players but with the administration.

You fed the troll!!!

well lets hope he chokes on it

We'd need more experience in the halves against the Aussies. Imo you'd need one of Myler/Eastmond/Tomkins then one of Brough/Burrow

or someone else.

Hookers - Diskin, Roby

Props - Peacock, Morley, Graham, Crabtree, Carvell

2nd row - Ellis, Burgess, Wilkin, JJB, Westwood

and probably have the 17 emboldened

Only one prop on the bench?


Graham should be used from start, as should Peacock, two of Morley, Carvell, Lynch, Crabtree & -dare i say it? - Faasavalu should be used from bench for impact.

Other than that it looks an okay team, apart from I wouldn't take Burrow or Gleeson.
