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

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.

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
