Is there a list of the squad?

Agree with the Manu thing. I look forward to seeing him in an England shirt (if it comes to pass) but I think the rules in RL regarding Nationality are nothing short of a joke.

How many times have we seen players representing their country at senior level only to jump ship to "a (potentially) more powerful" team at the earliest opportunity.

Not Willie's or Faasavalu's (sp) fault, it's the people running the game.

Good luck to all anyway.

Frrom the RFL website:


The 37 players who were involved on Tuesday at Liverpool were:

Chris Bridge (Warrington), Tom Briscoe (Hull FC), Kyle Eastmond (St Helens), James Graham (St Helens), Ryan Hall (Leeds), Sean O`Loughlin (Wigan), Danny McGuire (Leeds), Adrian Morley (Warrington), Jamie Peacock (Leeds), James Roby (St Helens), Nick Scruton (Bradford), Michael Shenton (Castleford), Kevin Sinfield (Leeds), Sam Tomkins (Wigan), Ben Westwood (Warrington), Shaun Lunt (Huddersfield), Kevin Brown (Huddersfield), Richard Myler (Warrington), Ryan Atkins (Warrington), Jodie Broughton (Salford), Leroy Cudjoe (Huddersfield), Peter Fox (Hull KR), Lee Smith (Leeds), Gareth Carvell (Warrington), Ben Harrison (Warrington), Jamie Langley (Bradford), Tony Clubb (Harlequins RL), Ben Jones-Bishop (Harlequins RL), Andy Lynch (Bradford), Joe Westerman (Castleford), Kirk Yeaman (Hull), Louie McCarthy Scarsbrook (Harlequins), Eorl Crabtree (Huddersfield), Scott Moore (St Helens), Paul Sykes (Bradford), Jon Wilkin (St Helens), Willie Manu (Hull FC).

Ben Jones Bishop has been putting in some good performances of late for Quins. Leeds rate him very highly.

It's good to see Cudjoe , Scruton and Lunt in there. Sykes though !

Paul Sykes, is that some kind of sick joke?

difficult to take the england team seriously at the moment with the man picking the team having been sacked for losing 9 games in a row, I can only see embarrassment again this autumn I'm afraid

There are a few odd selctions though, like at fullback, where the options are either Lee Smith or Ben Jones-Bishop.

The Wing options are strong, though. Briscoe, Ryan Hall, Peter Fox, Jodie Broughton, Leroy Cudjoe.

It's a bit light on the second row. Westwood, Harrison, Manu, Wilkin. No Tomkins or Tickle. (I classed O'loughlin, Langley, Westerman as LF).

Watts should consider himself unlucky, but skyes?

Ellis, Burgess and Widdop will be added to those though.

agreed he is below average at best !!
was surprised at Cudjoe too

thought joel tomkins would of been in the squad and paul sykes hes shocking and should be nowere near the squad

Good news for the club and well done to the lads.

Glad Houghton is not in the squad, too soon imo. Also the rest in the off season will serve him well.

What has joel tomkins done wrong. He is our player of the season at the moment

I agree he deserves a place in the squad. Perhaps the high number of errors and penalties he gives away went against him?
