whoever gets the nod against the kiwi`s and aussies..it`ll be the same old story...personally hope tomkins gets the nod...see how good he really is and what excuses you lot come out with in his defence

Why would we make excuses?

Young player of the year.
Made the "dream team" in his first full season.

Scored a hat trick and created three tries in a man of the match performance on his International debut.

What more do you want of him?

Agreed, i'm just concerned he actually did think myler had a good game. You don't need to come out and say a player was poor, but likewise you don't need to say he did well either.

Just doesn't seem quite right to me that's all.

He was asked a question by a reporter about Sam's performance, he felt he needed to say that both halfbacks did well (so Myler gets some praise)

He then volunteered that Sam Burgess was really good, but did not mention anybody else in the forwards at all.

Peeing Lightning and crapping thunder, slaying all who dare oppose him. Even then he'll still get stick from some unless he signed for them.

Why do I get the sense that you want a player who plays for your country to play poorly? Just because he plays for a club you don't like? Have a word with yourself, pathetic.

Easy.......................

He would love him in a Wire shirt

nice attempt a trolling, but we are talking about our national side. whoever plays should be supported. sam is good enough and should play, the fact that he plays for wigan is obviously an issue for you. you need to get a grip. If carvell scored for england i would be cheering as i would if ade gardner scored. they are all wearing the england shirt and playing for the same cause, and that is to try and restore some pride after the shambolic performance in the world cup. Instead of having a go at a player because of his club why dont you show a bit of patriotism and get behind the team

If more people did just that the Four Nations would be a sell out. Unfortunately rugby league supporters tend to be some of the most insular folk you'll meet.

I suppose if he slated Myler to the press the rimjobs he'll receive off him next year wouldn't have the same tenderness about them.

It is not a choice between Mcguire and Tomkins for who plays it's a choice for who plays 6 and who plays seven between Tomkins and Mcguire.

Sam at stand off and McGuire at scrum half dragging us around the pitch.
