i don't see how widdop is first choice for most people. how many people have actually seen him play regularly this year, he's only played 2 first team games for melbourne.. it's like picking johnny lomax at full back, whose played more first team games than widdop.. personally i'd pick wellens and briscoe in front of widdop

my team:

1 - Tomkins
2 - Hall
3 - Shenton
4 - Gleeson
5 - Riley
6 - Pryce (if fit, mcguire if not)
7 - Eastmond
8 - Graham
9 - Roby
10 - Morley
11 - S Burgess
12 - Ellis
13 - O Loughlin

14 - Lunt
15 - Lynch
16 - Westwood
17 - Fielden

other players in squad - darrell goulding, joel tomkins, luke burgess.. can't really think of anymore!!

what does say something about england though is on the way to the crusaders match, we where discussing the signing of shenton, who on here is there or thereabouts for the England first choice centre.. and we weren't thinking "wow what a signing" more of "i think he'll do well" - sort of says it all about the england team

sorry that should've read i'd have wellens, briscoe and tomkins ahead of him..

1 - Tomkins
2 - Briscoe
3 - Bridge
4 - Shenton
5 - Hall
6 - McGuire
7 - Eastmond
8 - Morley

10 - Graham
11 - Tomkins
12 - Ellis
13 - O'Loughlin

S Tomkins
T Briscoe
Atkins
Shenton
Hall
McGuire
Eastmond
Morley
Sinfield
Graham
Ellis
Westwood
O' Loughlin

Roby
Burgess
Lynch
J Tomkins

He will have to play prop with peacock out so two start from burgess, graham or Morley. The other starts on the bench. Neither are gonna play 80 minutes at that level on the front row and I don't think it matters too much which start and which don't.

1 - Widdop
2 - Briscoe
3 - Shenton
4 - Atkins
5 - Hall
6 - Tomkins
7 - Eastmond
