He surely has to go with four props v the Aussies. If we don't it will be a massacre. Carvell hasn't played I know but we just can't go with three props against that size of a pack that the Roos have. They are absolutely massive!
McNamara just hasn't got a clue!

14. Kevin Sinfield (interchange Hooker)
15. Carl Ablett (back row and centre cover)

I would go with:
1 S.Tomkins

3 J.Reed
4 K.Yeaman
5 T.Briscoe
6 G.Widdop

17 JJ Buchanan

10. Peacock
11. Ellis
12. Westwood
13. Heighington

14. Chase
15. Morley
16. Carvell
17. Jones-Buchanan

Without calling up Mossop, that looks the about the best option.

McGuire and Wilkin, despite what they do for their respective clubs, have always looked a pair of liabilities at international level. Each forcing the pass far too often and missing tackles international players shouldn't be missing.

Go big, go hard, go at a hundred miles an hour and make it stick.

Yep, I wouldn't go as far as describing them as liabilities and I wouldn't exclude them merely on past England performances, but Wilkin hasn't seemed to offer much in the last two games and I think Carvell deserves a shot and I don't think you can play against the Aussies with only 3 props. And McGuire hasn't set the world alight this season.

Widdop has looked dangerous when he gets his hands on the ball and out of the 2 Chase looked the weaker than Sinfield in the 2 games to me, so I'd drop Chase to the bench and start with Sinfield & Widdop and hope Chase can add a bit of zip and enthusiasm coming off the bench in the same kind of role Burrow has done for Leeds this season.

The only other question mark would be JJB, but in both games he's added a bit of pace and go-forward to the second row so I'd keep him.

of all those in the squad who have played scrum half this year he is the best, and he has played with Sinfield all season so no need to worry if they gel or not, it would only be for the first 25/30 mins anyway

I've not really been impressed with Heighington thus far, nor Wilkin. I think Wilkin is counter-productive at times. Heighington is supposed to be a smash-mouth bull but he's made little impact. I'd maybe be tempted to stick with him though ahead of Carvell or Bailey.

I wouldn't really like to upset the 6, 7 partnership we've got going, but I'd like to see Widdop get the chance and with Sinfield at 13, there'd be less pressure on Chase to play his natural game IMO.
