We should respect the players wishes in wanting to represent their countries, regardless of how it affects us.

Stamped with the usual Jakester modus operandi.

Indeed. There are a few club owners who would probably be whining on twitter about it

Yep!

I agree apart from that neither of them were bothered about Samoa or Tonga when NZ wanted to select them.

This is a risk you take when you sign international players. How many other teams have two international captains in their squad? How would these guys react if they were told they couldn't go? We beat Wire on Easter Monday without either of them.

I think the main problem is the timing.

With only two major trophy's to play for, this is half of our season ambitions on the line on Sunday.

You can't knock the lads for wanting to represent their countries, I just think the organising of fixtures could be dealt with better, I mean, you wouldn't organise an international fixture during play-off time and this game is play-off rugby, so maybe they could have played the cup games at a more convenient time.

It's a farce, no way should they be travelling across the world to play a nothing game, to risk getting injured and been out long term for us. It's a joke, like the international game. Coventry and anfield for the 4 nations is a joke to, the rfl need to give their heads a shake. And Pritchard and Manu should of been told it's a joke and they ain't going

Are you joking?

Sadly, he won't be.

Your argument is as bad as your grammar.

we can still win this game without them.coyh
