Quote ="roo"in response to Trimalchio prehaps I should have been more specific, I was trying to point out that young english(or welsh or scots or irish lets not be racist) centres I mentioned who are being touted as replacements for senior and yes other wingers score tries, but ryan has scored 30 this year outside keith and I think Richards is 10 or 11 tries behind him outside Carmont who is not english(etc)'"
I wonder what the draw of playing for the England coach also had.
"Come play for Wire and you're in the England team at the end of the year".
Unlikely as Tony Smith wouldn't do this I think but it's got to be in Atkins mind that if he keeps the national coach happy you've got one foot in the door. Same probably goes for Myler.
