Bit of a hot head when we first sighned him from wakey,but now he is the finnished article!!!!Like a finally pollished diamond.

I just think alot of people underestimate Benny. Without his work ethic in the team we wouldn't be where we are now. He is a key member of our team. He's also respected by everyone at the Warrington team, they seem to speak of him so highly, his presence in the team lifts the players. When the squads / teams are annouced he's one of the first players Itend to look for along with, Briers, Monaghan, Morley and King.

yes i agree.

but there is a difference in club and national teams.

JT will be there soon, if there was one player i would have welcomed to have an injury last friday it was him
[sizerumour is he will sign for wire for 2012[/size

Riley should definitely be in there as should Wood.

No disrespect to Manu but we hardly need more forwards, he should never have been considered.

If Macca tries to run the team like Tony Smith then he will fail as he's not as good at this moment in time as Tony.

Great to see so many of the Wire players there though as they have really ripped it up this year and have made for great viewing.

i think when everyone is fit we have the 2 best centres in Atkins and Bridge.

Bridge is the best centre England has IMO.

I agree

No Martin Gleeson - really hit the heights since leaving Wire hasn't he? Joel Tomkins should be in no doubting that. Wilkin is a step backwards to the old days - there are younger and better players than he in the squad and not in the squad. Ellis and Burgess will walk into the squad come the end of the season, probably Widdop too. Final 23 something like

Atkins, Bridge, Morley, Myler, Westwood, Harrison (Wire), Sinfield, Hall, Smith, Peacock, McGuire (Leeds), Tomkins S, Tomkins J, O'Loughlin (Wigan), Briscoe (Hull), Graham, Roby, Eastmond (Saints), Burgess (Bunnies), Ellis (Wests), Widdop (Storm), Shenton (Cas), Langley (Bulls)

Team something like
1. Eastmond
2. Briscoe
3. Atkins
4. Bridge
5. Hall
6. Tomkins S
7. Myler
8. Burgess
9. Sinfield
10. Graham
11. Ellis
12. Tomkins J
13. O'Loughlin

14. Morley
15. Peacock
16. Roby
17. Westwood

i would use westwood from the start and bring tomkins on. I dont care what anyone says... westwood is the best english second row playing in SL at the minute.

Totally agree. Westwood is no impact sub.

Your right but it says alot about English RL that he is

Dont get me wrong Bridge is a good player, but hes nothing compared to what the Australians have, and what we had 5 years ago

Joel Tomkins not included, and Paul Sykes included is a complete joke.In fact Sykes would be the first on my teamsheet in a worst 1-13 SL team

there is no getting around it... the selection of sykes is a terrible one.

And that's why we won't beat the Aussies. They have a team full of all stars, compare the teams, Slater to Lee Smith, Folau to Peter Fox etc.

I'd have Riley in the squad tbh

That's just it, their form doesn't warrant it, Mason is a cheap shot merchant and Griffin is grossly over-rated. They can't compete against the likes of Morley, Graham and Peacock.
