Roby



Crabtree

Kirmond

Loughlin

Tomkins

Westwood



I would fancy that team to get a medal.

With Shaun Edwards as Head Coach?



Roby would be a revelation at 7's I reckon. I'd be tempted to chuck Penny in there just for his pace.



Can big Eorl run though?

When it comes to Rugby League, my glass is always half full but I'm sorry, I don't see it working out like that



If England/SL players played in the Olympic 7's it would be MASSIVE publicity for Rugby Union not League and it would make household names of our star players who would then be offered multi million pound contracts to continue that exposure for Union clubs



As far as I see it - the best way to showcase the talents of Rugby League players is by them playing Rugby League not a completely different sport



Oh, and just because my opinion differs from yours doesn't mean to say I haven't actually used my brain to consider it - your post would have been far more gracious without the last sentence (but I'm learning that is the norm around here)

Could you imagine the furore if it actually happened.

All you would get would be the likes of John Inverdale slagging the RL players off at every opportunity.

But saying that you would get the wonderful Claire Balding absolutely frothing at the mouth.

Quick question... apologies if its already been answered.





What makes you think a side with British RL players would fare any better than a side with British RU players?

Did you watch any of the 7's today?

Naaaaaah



The Commonwealth games bores the hell out of me to be honest.





Anyway...I've been at work

Players like Pat Richards, Sam Tomkins, Liam Farrell, Ryan Hall, Rob Burrow, Kyle Eastmond and Danny McGuire would tear the sevens scene appart.



GB would easily win!



Aus would have an amazing team if they used Inglis, Hayne, Hodges, Thurston, Slater and Folau.

I watched a bit of the 7's yesterday its nothing like Rugby Union. One guy passed it in his own 22 and then other guy than ran and took a couple of players on.



Even the phases are played quicker more like the time of a league play of the ball.

Come on Baz, did you see what Bradford did in the RU 7's at 'HQ'? They played Saints (i think) 12 hours earlier andf their bus broke down, then they won without trying.

why would we want RL players playing RU? and do you really think the ERU would pick them? We should be introducing RL 9's back into the calendar then in a few years be campaigning for it to be in the C'wealth games.
