Holdsworth has had a potential career ending injury and I suppose no one knows if he's 100% still so why risk it. It will bef an honour to be picked, but as a lot have said its not the parent nation so that honour is diluted.
The concept of a meaningful game for England is a good one but with an increasing number of the starting 13 for England now playing in the NRL how meaningful will this really be. Graham, Burgess x 2 or 3(4), Widdop all missing add to that Ellis, Roby and Morley only a week or 2 back from injury then it all seems a bit of a shambles to me.'"
Of course it's a shambles when our clueless coach picks an awful team, Ellis, Roby and Morley should be nowhere near the squad!
