| Quote ="WARRIORCRAIG"I don't think that HB partnership works at all but with Brough electing to play for Scotland and Widdop obviously not being available for the Exiles game, do we have a better one?'"
Brough would have been available if McNamara had swallowed his pride and selected on form instead of reputation as he said.
McNamara is a joke, as there are players on form completely overlooked and crocked players and Sinfield who is out of form.

| Quote ="sergeant pepper"Sinfield isn't the answer but he's a dam sight better player and person to have in your team than Brough ever will be.
ATEOTD Sinfield has played a pivotal role at HB in a Leeds team that have won numerous BIG games and GF trophies. If it's a straight shoot out between the two then there's not much competition really and Sinfield wins by a wide margin.
Now if you want to speak about other possible contenders such as Widdop or Tomkins in the halves i'd be happy to oblige but let's leave the stupid talk of Brough being international class to the Hudds fans.'"
Sinfield has been up against Brough twice this season, and Brough has shown him up completely, in fact Sinfield was non existent and should not have been picked he is vastly overrated. If you don`t fancy Brough Myler and Widdop.

| Quote ="cadoo"Danny Brough should be in over Chase - regardless of nationality IMO. Adrian Morley should be nowhere near the squad anymore - with all due respect to everything he has achieved in his career.
Other than that, I can't find any faults. Ferres deserves his shot as does Cudjoe. You could possibly make the case for Atkins being in there, but I think he has said in the past that playing against the Aussies a couple of years ago really knocked his confidence.
Danny Houghton is a good player, but what will he offer as an impact player? He's an 80 minute grafter whereas Burrow can offer a plan b if things need a shake up.
The only other point is I wonder if Gaz Hock would have been in the squad had he not been banned.
Team for the Exiles for me:
Sam Tomkins
Josh Charnley
Leroy Cudjoe
Zak Hardaker
Ryan Hall
Rangi Chase
Kevin Sinfield
Eorl Crabtree
James Roby
Lee Mossop
Gareth Ellis
Ben Westwood
Sean O'Loughlin
----------------------------------------
Rob Burrow
Chris Hill
Adrian piggin' Morley
Liam Farrell
Ferres, Myler and JJB on standby.
Good side.'"
Id put Farrell in ahead of Ellis, he's been sensational this year

Yep, poor guys have no chance of pleasing a decent amount of the fans.

But Brough has done something that Sinfield can only dream of... won a Challenge Cup Final.

I see Tony Smith has piped up, in his book Brough should be happy to play second fiddle to whoevers selected before him, Chase on the other hand has a god given right to turn his back on his country because he cant get in the team. I wonder if he had that sarcy smile on his face when he said that.....

| McBanana has to go. Was the wrong appointment in the first place and hasn't done anything to show otherwise.
I know it's in the 'fantasy coach' category, but I just think about what a top coach like Madge could do with the players we have available, we'd see a totally different England.
