im gutted about dallas johnson not being selected,the guy is a tackling machine and more.Would love to see him in a wakey shirt

so we beat the Aussies by putting 2 backrowers in the centres, and halfbacks on the wing and fullback - ok we really must be struggling if that is our team.

to be fair we really are!

Exactly how I feel!

How is it Chris Bridge can change from Ireland to England but Danny Brough apparently isn't elligible for England yet? Or have I missed something somewhere.

Myler as said before is untried at the highest level and nowhere big enough to be thrown in against the worlds best.At least Eastmond does have the sort of presence of the likes of Jason Robinson(elusive style of runner).

Only problem with DB not being picked/available (I remember an article said the RFL wouldn't give him clearance until 2010 and I don't think Bridge played for Ireland in the WC? I don't know how Harrison got dispensation to be in the train on squad though...) is our kicking game which almost demands that we slot Sinfield into the squad despite his obvious deficiencies at international level



I don't know how we'll go in the halves. In Tomkins we have a good player with an attitude and we need that cockiness to take it to the Aussies... McGuire seems like the obvious choice to go at 7, I just hope Sinfield can actually step up with a good kicking game an organisation ...

I still think we're screwed.
