2. Owen
3. Shenton
4. R. Hall
5. Ainscough
6. Myler
7. S Tompkins
8. Graham
9. Roby
10. S. Burgess
11. Ablett
12. J. Tompkins

Sinfield is gash and quite possibly the most overrated player to ever play for GB!

Not a bad choice....just IMO I dont think Fox or Atkins will cut the mustard longer term, and we should be looking at building from this point. I think players like Ainscough, R Hall are more to what we should be looking to for the next few years

You mean that small winger who can't get in the Wigan team anymore and is naf at defending kicks?
I agree with Atkins though, to say he's supposed to be a powerhouse he aint half crap at tackling, and for that reason he shouldn't be anywhere near international selection.
Fox is twice the player of Ainscough. Hall & Fox should be the wingers for now - Owen seems to have slowed down since last season and has a torn muscle in his stomach at the minute.

Apart from being the first GB player to be sent off in a test match he did nothing, zilch, nada, zerrrooo while playing for GB. Sinfield is not quite good enough to be a world class player but his international performances surpass Edwards'.

Yeah right gary! What a pathetic riddiculous jealous leeds fan comment. Edwards was the best half back this country has seen for the last 20 years, with the possible exception of gregory! To even speak of him and sinfield in the same breath is a joke!! Your just making a fool of your self!

| We will never win anything with the likes of McGuire and Burrow as half backs. We need to take the plunge Identify up and coming half back talent that is breaking through (e.g. Eastmond, Smith, Wheeler at saints to name but 3) and put them in the England squad. We will be embarassed anyway but why not use that embarassment to build for the future. Look at what it has done for Roby and Graham, they are up there with the best at an early age and IMHO it was throwing them in the deep end that helped their progression.
Finally Peacock never will be a good captain in my opinion. He is a workhorse and not a leader. You need to delegate as a leader and when things get tough Peakcock only know one way and thats to take it head on himself, unfortunatly sport and life rarely work like the movies.

Shock horror the answer is 3 Saints players
McGuire and Burrow kicked your ass in the last 2 grand finals. They are champion players

Watch some wigan season in review videos from 1990-1995 and come back and tell me that again. Best half back of the last 20 years as I said with the possible exception of Gregory. Edwards was one of the last true great visionaries on the rugby field...The closest players in the modern game to get anywhere close are your austrailian players of barrett, orford, lockyer,thurston etc...theres no british player come close in the last 20 years
