I thought Chase did OK, nothing great but nothing terrible either.
If it was a Sinfield/Widdop combination then Sinfield would obviously play 7, like he did last week.

Would've preferred seeing McIlorum on the bench but given that squad I'd go with Burrow off the bench (still don't think that'll work vs the best teams, but will be ok for Ireland).
Regarding Tom Burgess I too would've given him a shot ahead of Mossop. We had 3 debutants in the forwards last week, it was perhaps inevitable that one would look shaky, however if we bring him on around the 20/25mins mark alongside the experience of Graham I think that could help him.
Glad to see O'Loughlin back, but hopefully he's not pushed too hard at this stage.
Key area for me is in the 2nd row. Ferres showed up well last week but Westwood let himself down and Ablett didn't have too much of an impact. You would expect whoever gets picks out of Farrell or Ablett to show up well vs Ireland so will be hard to gauge their ability at International level from this game as much tougher tests await. Perhaps go with both and rest Westwood and see who looks in better form.
When Briscoe and Hall have been picked together it's usually seen Hall move to the right wing, we'll see if that happens again.

Such a shame that the George Hotel and Stevo's museum will not be open for people to enjoy tomorrow.

re-watched the Aus game last night and I think it is a bit harsh to say Westwood "let himself down" - he would still be in my final 17

The publicity boost for RL would be huge and well deserved.'"
I got short shrift from many when I posted this 12 months ago - but wasn't far off! |

Why don't we pick their mum as well and make it 5? Find enough cousins and they could have their own team. |

Steady enough start... Find myself torn between wanting us to hammer them and wanting It to be close for TV!

What was the ref doing there? He was in the perfect position to see that that pass was a yard forward.
