Despite his eyes being far too close together David Solomona is an excellent player.

Quote: PHIPPS "Why? It's a game of rugby league. We all like Rugby league. No need to be so negative.'"


Yeah lets risk one of our top overseas players in a game against england which is pointless.

The whole idea is stupid, who exactley does the all stars team represent ? Another idea which will be probably poorly attended and it could put at risk some of our clubs top stars to injuries. You wouldn't mind if it was a game that was worth playing in.

No-one from Saints in that team. You'd have the choice of:

Meli, Soliola, Perry, Puletua, Flannery.

Quote: Wellsy13 "Rubbish.
France couldnt keep up withthe pace. They've been given a chance but are clearly not ready yet. They'll still get a chance to EARN a game against the big teams like Wales have. You don't see comments by people saying they wouldn't blame Wales for jacking it off and going to play union because they don't play England every year. Or Tonga because they don't play Aus or NZ every year. It's rubbish.

England need tougher games until the other nations catch up. France and Wales need more pro players playing in the SL before they'll come anywhere near challenging England. Until then, it will always be a pointless walkover played in front of few fans, with little interest, at a tiny stadium with a 50+ point predicted hammering that does little for anyone.

France vs Wales will be a far better game for both teams. It will challenge both of them. The result won't be predictable. It's shown that it can draw a crowd in France and get media attention. It's a far better arrangement.'"

That would be a tough team to beat for England but a much better challenge then playing France. It's a tough call on the French though if we don't play them because they need to play better teams to enable them to improve aswell.

England can't keep up with the pace of NZ or Australia. Should England stop playing them?

And hopefully improve them at the same time, meaning the fixture has a point.

This all stars game is a pointless fixture.

indeed what nation wouldnt be pleased, proud in fact, to get the chance to earn 3 internationals against the big teams once ever four years, oh and world cup too. Its a wonder governments dont give more money to our 2nd tier nationals when they get the chance to play England, NZ, and Australia twice every four years, but only one or possibly two of them. The rest cant, they can just be happy playing against each other.

Quote: Wellsy13 "England need tougher games until the other nations catch up. France and Wales need more pro players playing in the SL before they'll come anywhere near challenging England.

how will they catch up if they arent allowed to play us?

Quote: Wellsy13 "France vs Wales will be a far better game for both teams. It will challenge both of them. The result won't be predictable. It's shown that it can draw a crowd in France and get media attention. It's a far better arrangement.'"
France lost their last competitive game against us 34-12 with an attendance of 11'529 in Doncaster. Something was building. Maybe right now it wasnt an Australia test for England, but who cares, France and Wales were benefiting.

Indeed sometimes the media gets things right and sometimes they get them wrong.

I still see this game as pointless though, dont get me wrong its nice in 'fantasy rugby' kind of way but the week could either be used to play a lesser nation and improve them, thus benefitting the international game more, or be used as a week off mid season to make player burnout less likely at the end of the season, which would also help the international game.

Cant really see it drawing the crowds in either.
