bull Dereau !

Yes we are. The international eligibility rules are a ing joke, even in comparison to pathetic sports like AFL with no international scene at all, even they have a better international federation than the 'RLIF'.

He's a very good player. England is the only country that plays league over here so there is no shame in moving him from Scotland's development into the main England squad.

Hasn't he declared himself for Scotland and so must play for them until the next World Cup.

Wouldn't you just love to have him in your team ??

he's been superb for us this season and we still haven't seen his best yet !!!

Yes send him home please

He may have played for Scotland, but the way the RFL changes between GB / England etc means that selecting a side does not mean much.

I think he is the best player in SL at the moment let alone the best that can play for us, so I have no shame in having him penned in at 7 before any other pics!

He absolutely terrorized Amos Roberts with those high bombs when we played Huddersfield. His technique is probably the best I've seen in Super League. He's certainly one of the best kickers in Super League and probably the best English kicker in the game.

At international level we've lacked a quality kicking game. We have the flair with Sam Tomkins, Gareth Widdop and James Roby. A quality kicking game from Danny Brough with Sean O'loughlin playing at loose forward and that is one hell of a talented spine of players.

1. Sam Tomkins
6. Gareth Widdop
7. Danny Brough
9. James Roby
13. Sean O'loughlin

God help us,

I wonder if I have a Welsh grand parent?

Breeeed of heeeven, breeeed of heeevan

There's no 'woe is me' attitude at all. The simple fact is that the international eligibility rules at present are an absolute disgrace and so is the organization that is supposed to be in charge of running the international game. Trying to pretend that these issues don't exist will achieve nothing, and will only serve to further damage the sport at international level.

This post sums up exactly what is wrong with international RL.

If we say players can't change their nationality then no players will play for the smaller nations that have a remote chance of playing for one of the 'Big 3' countries.

Until these countries can produce enough players to make a competitive team then the rules as we have them are the best way to go.

What do we do that is diffeernt to English RU or English Cricket or English Athletics.

I dont agree with it but if they are the rules they are the rules

If he does then I would agree that McNamara wants his head looking at.

The best revolving door defender the Aussies/Kiwis would want!!

Talk about running down an easy channel!!!!
