We would have a fair shot against NSW with that team but would struggle against Queensland and thrashed by Australia (again)!!

I know Charnley is a good player, but playing both wings in the same game is some going for anyone!!! icon_smile.gif

WEST COAST PIRATES NRL expansion? Sometime soon, maybe......:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_9857.jpg



Ideally France would tour at the same time and play PNG one week after GB then play NZ in a three test series whilst GB were playing the Ashes games.

Interesting that virtually everyone opts for Brough.
Bet Mcnamara omits him from final squad.

I have my doubts too to be honest. He'll be 30 and he never sems to perform consistantly for a full season. I think Matty Smith if he has another good year next year could be in.

'when my life is over, the thing which will have given me greatest pride is that I was first to plunge into the sea, swimming freely underwater without any connection to the terrestrial world' Yves Le Prieur, the real inventor of the aqualung:



Quote: JB Down Under "2014 Would love to see a GB tour down under
1 Game v PNG in Port Moresby
2 Games in NZ (Auckland and Wellington)
3 Game Ashes series in Oz (Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane)

I'd be far more interested in watching that than another 4 nations.'"


A trip down under would be definitely on the cards for this.

I’m hoping that another full Super League and NRL season will see a number of young players play themselves into contention

We have the building blocks of a decent squad

Full backs: Tomkins is nailed on barring injury and I really like the look of Eden but next year may be a little too early

Wings: Any three from Briscoe, Hall and Charnley who are all a step up from recent English wings

Centres: Watkins could be a great centre – has athleticism and skill. Needs to tighten up his defence but in another 12 months he could be the real deal. Alongside him either Reed or Atkins

Stand-off: Widdop – performing at a good standard week in week out in a leading NRL team, not sure what more he has to do to get the number 6 jersey for England

Scrum half: Lomax – again in 12 months I think he will be capable of really bossing a game, already showing he can do this for Saints in spells. I would have had Brough in the squad last year but not as convinced now. Matty Smith may be a shout after a year at Wigan

Props: Rotating with Graham, Sam Burgess, Mossop and probably Chris Hill the way he is improving (although I think George Burgess will be a regular in South’s NRL squad next year, will be interesting to see if he can get fast international recognition like his brother)

Hooker: Roby nailed on and McIlorum the other specialist. At least one of Robinson and Burrow in the squad for cover

Back row: Ellis, Westwood, Hock and O’Loughlin

My 17 from that would probably be below but I hope that some youngsters push their way into the picture

Tomkins
Briscoe
Watkins
Reed
Hall
Widdop
Lomax
Graham
Roby
Sam Burgess
Ellis
Westwood
O’Loughlin

Mossop
Hill
Hock
McIlorum
