he might be in a couple more seasons,westwood and a fit again gareth ellis is the best 2nd row pairing england should use.
if he continues his form throughout the season then he might sneak a place in the squad but the likes of hock would probably pip him to that as they have a bit of x factor.
a good player with a good work ethic but probably a season or two before he is near the finished article.

Erm, Ryan Hoffman, whilst a big guy, isn't really a bulldozer. He was never that aggressive either, just defends well, makes the hard yards and runs good lines. He also played for Australia against the kiwis at the tail end of the year!

The blood and thunder approach is all well and good, but you need your smart forwards like Farrell & Graham to compliment guys like Burgess & Hock that can rampage through defences

[quote="FlexWheeler":8f22o6ue]The extent of his coaching is ''BASH EM, JUST F*CKING BASH EM. HE'S LOW ON CONFIDENCE, BASH HIM'' He's a limited coach that won't last long term.[/quote:8f22o6ue] .... [quote="rubber duckie":8f22o6ue]That would make Wigan strong favourites then. With Ratchford at FB and Patton with Cronk in the halves, I think we'll do very well without Sam.[/quote:8f22o6ue]:



Quote: jonh "Whilst I am no an of JJB, I think Ablett has been very good this year so far. Leeds stand out player by some distance.

I would have no complaints with his call up and he could be pushing for a place in the 17 along with Faz.'"


Ablett 5 games at centre, his winger has scored 0 tries. would benefit from passing the ball! His winger has barely even touched the ball this year. I know he isnt a centre, but if he is picked for England he will most likely play in the centres. keeping an actual centre such as Daz out of the team.

[quote="King Monkey":30st820n]Maybe a spell in prison would do Graham good. At least he'd lose his virginity.[/quote:30st820n]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_18919.jpg

He's a left sided player primerily, both as a centre and a back rower. He was probably the best left centre in SL last season along with Carmont, and Him and Hall scored a lot tries last season. To be fair to Ablett, he's been very effective when asked to play at RC as well in the past but he's playing inside a winger who isn't good enough IMO.

He's a shoe in for the squad IMO, and will be fighting it out with Hock, Farrell, Wilkin, Whitehead and JJB for a bench spot in the world cup.
