Agree about Westwood, thought he'd sorted that side of his game out, but he was a liability at times on saturday. Was also dissapointed with the Sinfield/Chase combination, think we need more direction at halfback, such a shame Brough and Lomax are injured.

Sinfield has been MIA for the last 3 games so shouldn't be in the team, he can't even get his goal kicking right and that's his main contribution to the team!

Brough isn't injured. He wasn't picked by that d*ck McNamara

because he's been awful since his injury.

If you seriously think that then you really have no understanding of how Rugby League is played. How many of Englands points involved Sinfield?

A lot less than the 6 assists and 2 passes that lead to tries (Sinfield assists) by Chase.

Sinfield is too slow and offers nothing when his kicking game is off - so far both his in game kicks and his goal kicking has been poor.

Peacock - Bailey
Graham - Carvell
Ellis - Ablett

If them three are out i think these will be the players that cover there spaces.

I don't think all three will be out for such a big game. What are the extent of the injuries, Ellis was a back strain wasn't it?

Three of England's tries came from plays by Sinfield.

Yep!

oh god, we'll be murdered, thats 3 players who would walk into any NRL team with 3 SL squad players

Think Graham will be ok. He looked grumpy that McNamara wouldn't let him come back on yesterday. Mind you he always looks grumpy!

Am I the only one, but I wasn't that impressed with the kiwis on saturday or in fact this tornament. I don't think we need our full squad to beat them anyway. Think this year they are seriousley underperforming and the game at the kc won't be any different.

Think we should go with (injury depending and considering that JP is almost certainly out)
1 Tomkins
2 Hall
3 Reed
4 Yeaman
5 Briscoe
6 Widdop
7 McGuire
8 Graham
9 Roby
10 Morley
11 Ellis
12 Westwood
13 Sinfield
Subs
14 Heighington
15 Carvell
16 Jones Buchaanan
17 Chase

Prediction;

We will be slaughtered up our left side, Brisco, Yeaman, Rangi have no idea going forward and their defence is even worse.

Rangi only knows how to shimmy to his left and has no idea how to straighten up a defence, Yeaman has not broken the line once yet in this tournament, and Briscoe is frightened of taking on the white line.

Wilkin is ok in defence but is ineffectual going forward, so all of the above makes for a very weak left side.

Sinfied goes to sleep between sets and has no idea about 2nd phase footy because his attention span is elsewhere thinking about what he may possibly do next.

McKnob has no idea and is kidding himself if he thinks he can take this side on to better things, h is half selection is absolutely crap, we should be looking at Brough and Widdop in the halves. Sinfield should be a rotation player in the 9 or 13 position and Rangi should be running water for the Kiwis.
