| I suppose we should all be happy that a well respected, experienced coach with a succesful career is choosing the side he thinks will do a better job against the best from down under, rather than fans from the other side who undoubtedly have their own agenda.

You might be right, saying that he hasnt had the chance for the last two years for Hull
I think it is time to give some younger players a chance for GB an dtry and build a team for the future.
I dont think Tom Briscoe is ready for international football yet, but I would have had him in front of Sykes (there are also plenty of other I would have had in front of him), that along with the hooker situation in the only disapointment in the squad for me.

personally i would like to see the likes of Briscoe, Tomkins & Eastmond bloodied in these 4 nations........they are the future.........even if they're not quite international class the experience would be invaluable.

Why does everything with you have to come down to Hull and Rovers. We are surely able to discuss players on their abilities rather than which club they play for?
The one reason Ryanor is not in is probably down to the fact he was injured for a long time last season and also the fact that Smith seems to want to move the squad on and pick and blood some younger players.
Not being picked for GB or England does not make you a bad player.

I'd put Melanie Sykes in the team before ever picking that muppet from Bradford again.

Perhaps you would be better placed to post this opinion on your own board because it appears you have forgotten the countless threads started by hull fans in the past which seem to invalidate your comments.
Back to the thread, it appears Smith is finally turning to the younger players and form players in an effort to improve our International standing.

His style is to run from side, but it often causes defences probelms, his offloading ability is one of the best in game. It's just a shame that our players are smart enough to react to some of these situations.

Our Briscoe wasn't in the squad for the Wales game. Be interesting to see how Tom Briscoe goes, brilliant hopefully because he looks like he could be an absolute star for England, and unfortunately FC.

Didn't realise he wasn't included Think your right about Tom, this experience can only improve his game.

Think some of the nailed on players for the following game were give the Wales game off. I'd fully expect Shaun Briscoe to start in the following game and then Tom Briscoe hasnt made that squad as the other grand final players come into the squad etc.
