Brough was one small mistake the England coach made,'"
Not really. Brough showed quite clearly why he can't play for England. Not sure why you haven't been able to acknowledge it.

Sinfield looked the part today and anyone who says otherwise has a lack of RL knowledge

| Quote: sally cinnamon "As we all know later today this forum is going to be in meltdown in frustration at McNamara for picking the wrong side as we all know England would have been strong enough to beat the Kiwis if only X had been playing instead of the same old faces like Sinfield, Tomkins etc.
So which players that were left out would have made all the difference?
I will start with Ratchford, Myler and Atkins.'"
BJB, hardaker, mcguire and JJb would have all won the game for england. Not the rabble you mentioned.
Who's leeds first game anyone?

You not familiar with Durham Giant then?
You've just described him to a tee! I'm surprised he hasn't wished harm on Sinfield/McNamara etc. He's got form you know! A sad excuse of a Mod!

| All ifs and buts, Graham was left out due to discipline (would the response from him have been the same if he hadn't been), was widdop showing up well in training to be selected to start. Sinfield and widdop were great today as the team were as a whole, gutting to fall just short. I cannot understand the odd poster coming on 5 minutes after the wake of such a game with their shout your mouth off style post.
Well done England.

| Widdop had been injured prior to the tournement and Graham's destiny was in his own hands for that first game.
Graham is the type of player who if available will be first on the team sheet. As a Saints fan I love him, but he excluded himself from that game.

| Team selection was spot on today. What a pointless thread when England have just performed so well.
Not using the 4th sub always annoys me but no complaints with anything England or banana man did for that game.

| I think it was a bit of an ironic thread if you take Sally's other posts into account and that it was posted pre game time.
However it seems some have taken it to heart therefore proving the irony?????

Any left centre who can pass and tackle would have improved them as well

| Atkins would have made more of the chances presented to Cudjoe
Brough would have gained us better field position and controlled the game at least as well as either Widdop or Sinfeld
Lunt would have been more professional than McIllorum and therefore he would have been available for today's bench where his contribution would be greater than Burrows
Did Ablett even get used today, if not then surely Mossop would have been better off the bench in a game against a physical Kiwi team.

Exactly !!! RL is a 17 man game so why play with only 16

I dont know. Maybe we should check with who picks the team and who decides on the interchanges.
I would suggest whose responsibility it is but then you just get accused of whinging.
