I think Watkins is our only current centre who could turn in some 'world class' performances at the WC.

I've been really impressed whenever I've seen Lineham play. If he keeps his current form right through to the end of the season then he'll certainly be knocking on the door.

What the hell does this have to do with George and Sam Burgess?

The thread is about two of the greatest forwards England has ever produced, players who will be compared in future rankings with Malcolm Reilly and Ellery Hanley. Yet you and a couple of others want to divert the important discussion to the trivia of a Hull winger and a centre ominously named Crooks, who cannot get an NRL contract and bear no relation to the Burgess brothers.

Hahaha there is the warning, do not comment on a Jean thread unless it is NRL, Catalan, London or expansion related.

I didn't start this thread. I just contributed to it.

Also you have forgotten to mention Toulouse!

As a Saints fan, I'd obviously pick Roby at 9, but, given he's had a long period out injured, is he under pressure from the likes of Lunt, Clarke and Houghton?
