| have absolutely just steamed rolled NQL cowboys forwards pack, 188meters from George and 140 from sam. near the end of the game George burgess made a break and rolled matt scott over with a hand off. It will be hard for any prop in super league to get in front of George burgess and James graham for the England side. Sam burgess is playing in number 13 and has been for majority of the season and completed the full 80.
Not sure who won the official man of the match but some networks had George and a few had Sam

| I used to think Sam was out of this world but George, WOW. I fancy Souths to win it this year, as good as Melbourne are, Souths have so much momentum and have improved massively over the last 18 months. Greg Inglis - enough said.

| Sam was Man of match, both had cracking games
If only we had a back line that could play off the platform the England pack will lay this World Cup.

6 & 7 are England's biggest concerns. 1-5 are pretty impressive. Maybe worth moving Sam to 6 and Hardaker to 1?

| Crackin' game from both Burgess's and Warren was saying sam could be better than Mal Reilly with regards to the best player to go to Australia, hard to argue with that.

Agree. No idea why we can't produce world-class centres with any regularity, but we can't. Our major weakness though is strength in depth, or lack of it. Still, with a fair wind, we have a chance. 4-1 is fair odds for me.

| George absolutely should be in the England squad he's been so dominating for Souths. no doubt he'll be overlooked and Morley picked instead.

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

Sinfield as captain has a mortgage on the No 6 jersey. I disagree with that decision, but that is the reality we have to work around.
Widdop needs to be picked in the halves. He is a real talent in the NRL, as his huge new St George-Illawarra contract recognizes. But McNamara seems oblivious to his talent.

Jack Reed is quite a good player. Obviously not in the class of Inglis, Hodges, Jennings and Morris. But he is a great jumping catcher of the high attacking kick -- hence his nickname Jumpin' Jack Reed.

| Wait until Tom Burgess completes his apprenticeship in the reserve team. There will be two Burgess prop freaks (George and Tom) plus a Burgess loose forward freak (Sam), plus a good Burgess prop (named Luke) in Souths team.
Not out of the question to have 4 Burgess brothers in the Souths and England forwards next year -- 3 props and a loose forward.

George Burgess may win the Dally M prop forward medal this year. James Graham may have missed too many games under suspension to compete for the award.
Sam may win the Dally M lock forward medal this year.

Reed is a good player but would you agree his future is probably in the back row?
He's losing pace at a worrying rate.

| Chris Heighington turned in a decent performance yesterday also, do we expect to see him in the squad? For me, he's behind Burgess, O'Loughlin, Westwood, Farrell, Hock and Ellis in the back row pecking order, but who knows with McNamara.
Also, Ben Crookes seems to be firing in the centres at the moment, has a bright future, but the WC may be a year too soon. FC fans will probably be able to towel you more on his development.

Absolutely. He's exceeded my expectations massively this year, can't believe how much he is taking it to such well drilled experienced packs week after week.
He and Graham have to be lining up on the bench for England at the moment (with Graham pulling 60+ mins from the bench like at the Dogs).

| George Burgess was immense against the Cowboys. Sam was good, but George was just bowling them over.

Looking forward to seeing James Graham at 8, George at 10 and Sam hopefully at 13 in World Cup later this year.

He plays well off the bench.

| When discussing the England pack I think Ferres needs to be there. He has been immense this season.
