Bateman looks like a very good player and I'd happily have him at Wigan.

Are out 6&7 at this age group as good as we are told?

Yes, they are both outstanding prospects as is Joe (Budgie) Burgess on the wing. Will they develop and progress and go all the way? Who knows, but the raw talent is certainly there.

The final makeup of the touring squad to Australia is named tuesday June 19.

With Ryan Hampshire being named man of the match you would assume he played his way into the squad and Connor Farrell too. how did Burgess, Sutton and Tierney go Rogues ?

All six players have made the touring squad to Australia, well done to them.

Yes congratulations to all of them. I was talking to Joe Burgess mum last night at the nines. They were delighted at the news.

Thanks for the information.

Well done to [uall[/u the players for earning selection, I'm sure we all wish them well on tour.
