Nobody. None of them are good enough, and we should stop playing international rugby to avoid embarrassing ourselves.

Maybe - but as fans we would not get to see the really elite world players in live action and that would be a shame.

The one where he caught the kick 3 metres out then fell over the line?
My bad, he's the next Offiah.

Indeed but hardly surprising when you don't tend to follow Salford. You probably still think he scored at Headingley last season as well.
Besides which, as Broughton hasn't been selected in the 'Elite' squad (unlike Ferres) I wouldn't get too upset over his non-inclusion.

Sounds like even my low opinion of him is giving him far too much credit. Still not much of a convincing argument for lamenting his loss to the degree you do.

If I lament the loss of good local Academy prospect in order to accomodate a disinterested (some might say abysmal) average antipodean then so be it.
I'm sure we'll both wish Broughton well should he go on to represent his country.

Absolutley.
Did you lament Peter Fox, Gareth Raynor and Mark Calderwood to the same extent, I struggle to recall?

| Fox, less as I knew and had seen almost nothing of him to form an opinion.
Raynor, about the same as he'd shown huge promise and potential but also found his opportunities limited by an incumbant 'wage stealer.'
And much more when Calderwood was effectively forced out as he was already the finished article and one of Leeds' better performers on game day - a proven match winner.
