Very true, it was Like Pat Richards playing for Ireland because he wasn't good enough for the Aussie team, doesn't mean he is Irish. |

[quote="headhunter":lnxdgxk2]Union people are idiots. They almost universally accept that league is a better, faster game played by better athletes, yet for some reason they continue to disregard and belittle it. That game is tedious as hell from start to finish. If he'd ever played or even bothered to give more than a fleeting chance to league he would realise that the game is far more 'technical' than Union ever could be. Booting the ball into touch, scrummaging and forming rucks and mauls aren't areas that involve any skill, technique or mental capacity whatsoever. These are clumsy, outdated facets of the game that are also extremely uninteresting to watch and thus have to be defended in some way by people who are too prejudiced to see the truth.[/quote:lnxdgxk2]: |

Is that why Briers picked Wales, because he wasn't good enough for England ? |

i think its daft to say richards played for ireland coz he wernt good enough for oz, and twosevenzero's point is valid, briers is a top class player and easily had/has the ability to play for england.
I think its clear that wigan, warrington, and saints could field an 'all english side' and so well as they are the most successfull super league teams with strong academies

Carvell played for England a few months back. And the fact Briers is from St Helens means he is also eligable for England. iirc. |

We all know that makes no difference in our farce of an international game.
So it's pretty clear that Wigan, Warrington and Saints could field an all English 17, and would comfortably (I think) finish in the top 8.
Not sure if any other sides could do this, maybe the Giants?
