Cunningham, for a player with such a high and big reptuation in Super League, one of the greats. Never shown it at International level.

most of them.

Has to be a wind up.

Danny McGuire for me.

not at all
(imo of course) I've not been impressed by him in a GB/England jersey, despite his reputation at club level on both sides of the world

Agreed.

Certainly in the past 10 - 15 years.

easier to list the British players who have performed with note in the international arena...

Sculthorpe
Peacock
Carney
Morley
Fielden
Gleeson
Burgess

Sad but true. Sally makes a list of the only players who have really stood out at international level.

Long
Senior
Radlinski
and maybe a few others have done pretty well.

Unfortunatly most of the players who play well in this league are unable to step up and play at the top level.

At least most of the current crop have time to prove themselves. As somebody said appart from a couple of games Sam Tomkins has never really set a game on fire like he does in super league, he was awesome against the French and decent second half against aus in 2009 but other than that he hasn't been that great.

Lets hope the exiles game bridges the gap from super league to test level.

Am I the only one who thought Radlinski never 'did it' at international level.
A case inpoint, would be the tri nations at the back end of the '99 season, where (imo) he stunk the place out. IIRC he was at some kind of fault for every try in one match.

Long was another one (again imo) where his good games were the exception, rather than the rule.

Don't get me wrong, these were class acts at SL level

That 1999 Tri Nations was a shocker for us, because GB had a pretty strong team in terms of names. I think the tour schedule and coaching/preparation under Andy Goodway (who had been sacked by Wigan for being garbage there) ruined us. Not saying we would have won it, but you would have thought we could have been competitive with the Aussies, we had Radlinski at fullback, wingers were Robinson and Sullivan, centres were Connolly and Senior, had Iestyn Harris at his peak at stand-off, with Sean Long pre-injury when he was still fast, we had a back row of Morley, Farrell and Scully with Cunningham at hooker. But we were blown off the park by the Aussies and Kiwis and struggled to beat Burleigh Bears.
