Sinfield has been playing stand-off all season so I think he's only eligible for that spot. Don't they go off the position you've played the most games in? Sure I read that last year. O 'Loughlin is more grafting type of 13, which shows in a statistical comparision with Sinfield (who is listed as a stand off btw)

| Quote: Dunbar "I think it is quite the opposite and Wellens is a perfect example – a player can be great week in week out in the Super League but doesn’t have that extra level that you need in International football. With Wellens, it was a lack of pace that the Aussies and Kiwi’s exploited – usually with his kick returns
We don’t need safe in international football, we need match winners'" I do agree that playing (over) safe (for instance picking loose forwards at 6) is not the way forward.
The point I'm trying to make is demostrated by, say, Ben Westwood compared to Jon Wilkin. Wilkin is like Roy of the Rovers for Saints, but has struggled to step up to the extra physicality of International footy.
The straightforward Westwood had to wait quite a while for his chance behind the fancydan likes of Wilkin, but has proved an undoubted success at that level. In fact I sometimes think he plays even better at international than he does at club level. |

Wilkin isn't alone in that respect, which is part of the problem that English RL has had for some time. There are plenty of players who have been superstars domestically but can't do it in an England jersey |

Exactly, the key to selection will be finding the Westwoods, who can step up with relish. |

How people forget about Menzies, colossus for Catalans and also McGillvray at Hudds has done a fantastic job, it was a choice between him or Charnley for me in that position and also Wilkin has been beyond good for Saints this season.

I prefer chilli sauce. If he can step up with that then he's in my team. |

All English but 1 for me:
Tomkins
McGillvary
Yeaman

Brough - Although injured, always good when playing, tough between him and Dureau
Mossop
Roby
Graham
Westwood
O'Donnell
O'Loughlin I suppose.

Does that include your coach then?
Quote: Code13 ""Wigan have got some terrific players. Sean O'Loughlin is comfortably the best British player in the game. When they dominate so easy he can control the game very well." '" |

He did say he was doing an all english one. The majority of your top performers are not english. |
