If he carries on this sort of form surely McNamara will have to consider him for the 4 nations at the end of the season. ( I know he's Welsh, but players switch countries all the time in league) He's by far the most creative stand off in superleague, his kicking game is sublime and his reading and of the game is awesome. Behind the platform England have in the pack, he's got the keys to unlock the best defences in the world.
Let's be serious - is Steve Macnamara really going to consider Lee Briers for England (should Lee Briers even wish to play for England which he has said he wouldn't do) over Eastmond & Tomkins at halves with likelihood of Myler/Burrow/McGuire/Pryce as back up? No.
Lee Briers gave a stand-off masterclass on Saturday. He has been a fantastic servant to Warrington over 13 or so years. In the half dozen games he has played for us this season he has been very very good. Finally having a scrum half to play alongside him instead of a hooker at 7 has been a Godsend for him. But really we need to keep a little perspective here - he ain't going to go to Australia for the 4 Nations except as a spectator.

And Warrington have stuck by him...
