Then he'd have picked Lynch aswell wouldn't he?
Scrutes didn't have his best game today, but he has been consistently good for us up until today. Most fans (not just Bradford ones) will admit Scruton has been playing great all season. Today was probably his worst game this year, but still managed to give Bulls fans one of our only highlights with his big hit.

Is that a joke? We were totally outclassed today but that was nothing to do with Crabtree who brought absolutely nothing to your team. Your fans all seem to get excited when he gets the ball and clap him for basically doing nothing most of the time, it was quite funny to watch. He was panting after 15 mins and went off not long after, he looks slow and unfit and he was easily dealt with today by our pack. Scruton, though on the losing side still offered much more energy and go forward, even though he was on the pitch a lot longer.
Well done today on the result, thankfully the rain held off till the end of the game!

Why? The squad was picked last week had Crabtree (and the other Giants players for that matter) not been absolute gash for the month leading up to that point then the England squad would have been different. But as your very own coach said himself he had to pick the squad on current form at that time and as Brown said in your last match you'd hit rock bottom.
Funny how one match changes everything you were very good today and by far the better team but it's still the same team that was completely embarassed against Warrington in the cup.
Or are you advocating the use of Clairvoyants and Psychics that are able to see 6 days into the future for the selection of the Engalnd team? Not only that are you suggesting that the Engalnd team is based on performances in one match?

Maybe, just maybe, he is referring to Crabtree's efforts in the four nations last year. He was consistent and played very well throughout the tournament. Peacock has been injured most of this season but would you leave him out? No.

Yes he did but up until this week Eorl like the rest of the Giants team has been on a run of bad form the coach has to pick on current form. If the Giants kick on now they have a shout at the Four Nations squad.
He can't not pick Peacock because he's the captain.

He could have not picked Morley, Crabtree and Peacock and given group of props an opportunity to shine.
I know he wants to get off to a winning start, but he could have put out a team of players who could have signalled a new era. To be fair Smith did the same as McNamara has done - but I think he should have made a statement - play well at club and I will pick you. To me that means Coley, Mason, Scuton and Lynch could have been the 4 props.

| Actually, for the past couple of weeks Crabtree is one of the few players that has done ok, in fact, most of our "issues" have, imo, been down to our backs, the forwards have done ok.

I see your point. I personally thought Mason was your most effective Forward today and Scruton's constant attempts to put in a big hit were a problem today. He ended up looking pretty stupid when he attempted to hit mason when he wasn't close enough and Mason was still about to get the ball away.
