Quote: Roy Haggerty "Sinfield doesn't offer anything like enough threat at halfback. It's a complete waste of one of three attacking positions. We've got Tomkins right in one, and I thought Chase showed in the first 20 minutes that he was a genuine threat, but Sinfield needs to go back into the forwards if he plays at all, where his lack of pace is less exposed, and Widdop or Maguire at 6.'"
Sionfield would be a liability in the forwards against the Aussie or Kiwi pack, who would you drop Heighington, westwood or Eliis all 3 of them are tackling machines.
You cannot drop Sinfield either as with no Sinfield there is no Kicking game. Neither Reed or McGuire can overcome that deficiency.
Yet again the England coach and selectors get it wrong and that is why we are in the crap.
