Centres are particularly a worry. Gleeson is more or less a dead cert. But then who? Senior is way past it. Atkins, imo is not good enough, Yeaman is solid but how effective will he be against Australia? Brown has played stand off most of the year. Who else is there? Shenton and Craig Hall are classy players in attack, but would they got found out in defence?

Brown and Atkins would be mine, a strike centre and a classy centre. Inglis often plays a stand-offs role at centre, Brown can do that icon_wink.gif

The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you. Welsby-Dodd-Simms-Eaves-Rizzelli, not Eastmond...the future is coming.:Dwarfs, Gnomes, Halflings/GNOME2.JPG



How about something different and giving a few young players a go.

Not sure that I'd select Senior "sadly". He's shown some outstanding form this year.

It speaks volumes for the so called "future" of England's three quarter line. Senior has taken both Atkins and Shenton to school in recent months.

"In this age of Rooney and Tevez, here is a genuine, through and through sporting hero." Kevin Sinfield I've got diamonds on my fish.:simpsons/simp099.gif



Senior is on top form at the mo andwould walk in to the side. Without a doubt. I have a feeling he'll play for England again if asked.

As said earlier, he has given an absolute master class to the future centres for England

Senior "way past it"???? icon_confused.gif icon_confused.gif icon_confused.gif The best British centre currently and by a long way.

Ill be a bit different.

Fullback Cudjoe
Wings: Fox & Hall
Centres: Shenton & Atkins
Standoff: Mcguire
Scrum Half: Sam Tomkins
Props: Peacock & Graham
Hooker Moore
2nd Row: Ellis & O'Loughlin
Loose forward: Burgess

Subs: Roby, Morley,Carvell, Wild

Ive gone for Cudjoe as we need to have an attacking fullback. Briscoe just doesnt cut it in that department. Granted Cudjoe is inexperienced in this position but he does have heeps of pace and i cant think of anyone else with sufficient quality or gametime.

Wings speak for themselves. Two best in SL this year. Pace on one side power on the other.

Centres we need some pace in the backline. Gleesons form just hasnt been good enough and for me he is too slow at international level. SHenton and Atkins represent our only other viable choices.

Mcguire is in there because he was the only half who showed up against the Aussies and kiwis in the World cup.
Leon Pryce for me both downunder and this season has given every impression of being a flat track bully. Looks great when a team is well ontop, but when a side needs to dig deep he goes into his shell.

Tomkins offers more creativity than Burrows, and while he is inexperienced i cant think of anyone else to slot in there. Especially with fact Myler hasnt played for 3 months.

Peacock and Graham are the 2 best props in SL, they pick themselves

Moore has been form hooker this season and offers great organisation at dummy half and also a kicking game option
Ellis and OLoughlin are 2 tackling machines in the back row.
Burgess has the size and mobility to play like a modern day loose forward eg 3rd Prop.

Subs pick themselves. Roby for impact hooker. Morley for impact from bench along with Carvell his Wire colleague. Wild would be fourth sub as he can cover in backs if injuries occur while also giving us more mobility out wide later in the game.

Suprised at so many selecting Atkins, his form has been nowhere near international class this year - and I have seen just about every game this term. It seems that even on here players are 'selected' based on reputation/past glories/media hype etc.

If anybody was to get a look in from Wakey I reckon it would be Snitchy, I know many will laugh but he has been our best forward by a country mile this year.

I'm absolutely staggered by the amount of people who haven't put James Graham in their starting lineup? Graham isn't an impact prop, so having him on the bench doesn't add anything.

Graham and Peacock to start, with Morley from the bench would be better.

Cudjoe's best position is fullback, he is just on the wing till Brett Hodgson is finished with fullback at the Giants.

He is a very good player.
