Cant see what everyone is raving about with Briscoe - young with potential yes but he has done absolutely nothing to date. IMO Fox would be a much better choice.
Happy that Tomkins is in as hes in a class of his own.
Dont like the fact that he has dropped Moore - big ask of Roby to play 80 minutes.
Think Crabtree will get smashed by the Aussie pack - would have preferred Carvell but only just.'"
I think we may see Eastmond coming on for Roby |

I don't think so....'"
yes he does thats where you are wrong, and someone else mentions Tom is defensively more capable than Fox. all this Smith doesnt like him is tosh  |

it could be something to do with foxs' form at the end of the season being poor, briscoe is one for the future, smith has noticed that, everyone wanted fresh younger players in the squad, briscoe has played more games than tomkins yet everyone screamed to have him in the squad, whilst not disagreeing he shouldn't be, my only concern with tomkins is his attitude when things don't go his way on the pitch, he can show petulance on the pitch |

For reference, Wigan is like the Roman Empire. Warrington is like the pillow fort I built in my bedroom when I was 9. Ok, 26...

Woah Woah Woah, i'm not too sure about that, personally think catching a high ball is confidence thing, however, honestly do you really thing Briscoe is the best person for that postion at the moment?
if you're been honest with yourself you'd say no, and Fox deserves it imho.
But that is my opinion and you are entitled to yours too.
At the end of the day we all want England to win whoever is playing. |

Tom Briscoe has done fine in the last 2 England games, but that was only against Wales and France. In my opinion, Fox deserves a place in the team because of how well he's played all year. A few poorer performances at the back end of the season haven't done him any favours, but he's played 28 games this year and been excellent in the vast majority of them.
The only reason Fox missed out on the World Cup is because Calderwood had a couple of good games in the 2008 playoffs. This year, Fox had a couple of poor games in the playoffs and has missed out on the 4 Nations. Harsh, in my opinion.

no reason why he wont against the kangaroos, and as an earlier poster commented, its good to see youth getting a go, Tom is an exciting young prospect and its great to see him getting the chance to play against a team like Australia. |

When you answered me,you said that "he deserves his place END OF"
To me that infers that there is no other view but yours!!
In my opinion I think he's been rather fortunate to get a place in the team
