| Quote whiston_warrior="whiston_warrior"Clark and Roby are too similar, they only thrive on quick ptb's which we won't be getting too much of. Mcilorum has to start for me to soften their forwards up then it's either Clark or Roby off the bench.
We've also spent far too many years playing people out of position so Tomkins should play full back.
How anyone can pick Briscoe or Makinson over Charnley is beyond me, look how many tries Josh has scored compared to the games played. Last year everyone wanted Briscoe in because he only didn't score much because Hull were rubbish, what's the excuse this year?
Tomkins
Charnley
Watkins
Shenton
Hall
Widdop
Smith
Graham
Mcilorum
Cooper
Farrell
Westwood
O'Loughlin
Clark
Cooper
G Burgess
Ferres'"
Cooper looks a decent player this year but not sure he's good enough to be named twice.  A little bit of Wigan favouritism in there but still an excellent team if you stick in Hill and someone else for the Cooper twins.

| Quote Errlee Berd="Errlee Berd"Could there be a case made to put Ablett there, purely to avoid any of our other centres getting trampled to death by Inglis and Hurrell?'"
I don't know. That could be seen as a negative tactic, but defence does win big games.
Listening to reports, I now very much doubt if Inglis will play in the Four Nations. It sounds like he's playing through a painful hip injury for Souths.

| Watkins did fine defending against Inglis last year. You can't start picking backs because of their defence. Shenton deserves another crack, he's solid in every area and has had a great season.

| Quote Fully="Fully"That is utter tosh!
Shenton is defensively sound and when he went off injured in the Four Nations, England fell to pieces versus the Aussies when we had a good chance of winning.
He has always performed well at international level.'"
He's had a fine season, so may well deserve a crack, but in that tournament he didn't give Ryan Hall one single pass.

Doh!!
I meant Hill off the bench. When you look at his stats he seems to have a fantastic ability to get a quick ptb, so i'd bring him on when clark comes on.

| Quote CGD="CGD"When is the last time you watched that game?
Two tries in about 8 minutes were scored down Shenton's side just before he got injured. The flood of points had already started, and yes, it continued after he went off.
If Shenton plays this year, he'll also have Konrad Hurrell to worry about now.'"
It was 16-22 when he went off to Aussies. Just because it was down his side, doesn't mean Shenton was at fault nor should he be called weak in defence because of it when he really isn't.

17 try assists this season suggests he may have grown from his younger days.

I'd definitely have Ablett in the team somewhere. I thought he was outstanding against us last week. He was literally all over the pitch in defence and attack.

Then why did you bring up the fact that the Kangaroos "ran riot down his side" once he went off, if you don't want to hear that they were scoring down his side while he was still on?

Ablett has been one of Leeds' best players for most of this season. I'd definitely have him in the squad.
