Good squad, but Coley should have got a go

I think he has only named a maximum of three from each team. Although I would also have Harrison before Westwood and Lynch before Scruton. Its a very strong pack, shame about the three quarters.
I would go with;
Widdop
Briscoe
Bridge
Shenton
Hall
Sam T
Kyle
Graham
Roby
Mozza
Ellis
Burgess
Lockers
McGuire
Joel
Peacock
Sinfield

Again we are weak from 1 - 5 with no back up. Crabtree was one of our best performers in last year's 4 nations. We look to be short of hookers. Otherwise as expected.

What's the news on Eastmond's injury? He was due for a scan on his ankle today I think.

That must mean us Leeds do then?

Not if you look at the stats.

Scruton has made 3 times the amount of tackle busts than Coley. Everywhere else they look quite similar.

As for Peacock he's played 4 fewer games than Coley and still made more metres.

Stats only tell half the story and if they are taken from the Engage Sl site I would say they are less than accurate at best.

Can't see anything else that's impartial out there. You've obviously seen a lot of Coley and he's played well. Likewise me with Scruton. I'd say Scruton has improved by miles on last years showing and is a really aggressive and destructive runner now.

He deserves a chance IMO.

I'm glad Joel's in the squad


He's been outstanding this season and should be playing in 4 Nations if he carries on.

I could quote stats but there's no point. Peacock and Graham's stats over Coley's. However I thought Coley and Scruton's stats maybe a little closer, but no, Scruton again [ilooks [/i like the better player at the moment on paper.

TBH honest if there's one prop who should consider himself very unlucky not to be in its Andy Lynch. I also think Crabtree is unlucky to miss out. Coley is way down the pecking order.

Thats the rule yeah. Whether your clubs takes up that option is up to them.
