Quote: wilkiebri "Mr Mac seems to relish playing players out of position, we are never going to compete with the Aussies if we we don' play players in there specialist roles. Also why are we not bringing the young English players through, most can't even get in the squad, and to add insult to injury he ends up playing a reject Kiwi stand off at scrum half and a loose forward at stand off, wheres is Myler who had a great game against the French in the warm up game, and how about the young half back paring from Saints. I have no problem with the English players who play in the ARL, that can add some insight to how the Aussies play. This constant playing players out of position though makes for a disjointed side and is never going to get us any where. The game against the Welsh gave a very flattering score and at times the welsh pack gave us a good game, I'm afraid the Aussies and Kiwis will give use a lesson in Rugby League and show us playing players in the right positions is the way to go.'"
Lomax is injured. Tomkins is 22, Hall 23, Reed 23, Yeaman 28, and Briscoe 22(?)
Plus Widdop, BJB, Cudjoe and Carl Ablett. In fact there's only 5 players over 30 in the squad. Plus when you add the likes of Burgess, and Lomax out injured the squad has a fairly young look to it.
