I want to win the Rugby League World Cup!!

If that means selecting Michael Dobson then so be it. Admittedly I am a Rovers fan, but the same argument goes for Rangi Chase. If they are better then anybody else eligible for England then play them. As we have mentioned many times, does anyone care that Kevin Pieterson (sp) is South African, does anybody care that Shontayne Hape, Henry Paul, Lesley Vanikolo, Mike Catt etc were foreigners? No. People like a winning team and we need to put out a winning team, whether they have an English, Welsh, French or Australian accent.

The difference is though, Pietersen and Trott have at least one English parent and have had a British passport since childhood, so they are half English. Getting through on residency, is something else, especially if that's your only connection with England.

But we already did this with Willie Manu.

This SO true!!!

The Aussies, Kiwis and PNG would have seen the "open door" and run a horse and coaches through it!!!!

Oh they did

Brough is Scottish, he made his choice and should stick to it, select him
For GB yes

If people are saying don't select Dobson cos he's an Aussie, it's the same argument for Brough, at least Dobson hasn't represented a country at senior level

I care

I have waited a very long time to see GB and then England achieve international success

And I am prepared to wait a little longer for us to do it with English players... it will be all the sweeter for it
