its looks likely he will be turning out for england

Tomkins
Briscoe
Bridge
Shenton/Yeaman/Cudjoe
Hall/Macgilvray
Widdop
Brough
Graham
Roby
Peacock
Burgess
Westwood
Ellis

Morley
Carvell
Tomkins/O'Loughlin
Robinson

you need swap ellis and burgess round and swap hall and briscoe round, does peacock form warrant a place?. also id have lomax for widdop and have reed and joel in the centres

Cant blame him really...

You don't really get patriotic rugby players do you, take Brough, Scotland captain 1 year, wanting to play for England the next.

I wouldnt play Widdop just yet at 6, I think he needs more time to learn the role.

agree i would play lomax who is a better player

news.smh.com.au/breaking-news-sp ... 1ka6p.html Good player and would add depth to our back line.

With Yeaman, Bridge and Atkins form it looks like we have some competition for places in the centres.

Hock shouldn't be anywhere near another England shirt.

Came off a 2 year ban and showed himself up as an absolute .

widdop is the best 6 england have had in a while.

and even if lomax is a better player, which is most disputable, why couldn't they both play as Lomax is a 7?

Think Gaskell will turn out to be just as good if not better than Widdop,
if it was my choice I wouldn't give a ,its not as if we have anything to lose,throw him in and let him scare the Aussies to death.

Widdop has had an outstanding season for ther Storm, I don't see a better 6. Plus if Reed wants to play for England then I would get him in, far from the finished article but looks a fine player already.

Widdop has been great this season, does the little things right and lets the superstars around him shine.

Think we need to get away from pickng some of the older players (by name) and start testing our younger players (where possible) at international level. Having said that can't see it happening but personally would go with

S.Tomkins
MacGilvary
Cudjoe
Bridge
Briscoe
Widdop
Brough
Graham
Roby
Carvell
Tickle
Westwood
Ellis

J.Tomkins
Robinson
LMS

Tomkins
Briscoe
Yeaman
Bridge
Hall
Widdop

Graham
Roby
Morley
Burgess
Ellis
O'Loughlin

Peacock

Am I right in thinking both Ellis and Burgess will miss the 4 Nations? I know Burgess is injured now but im sure ive read somewere Ellis needs an op at the end of this season.

Could be wrong.

Looks like Reed could be a real contender for a centre spot: www.skysports.com/story/0,19528, ... 99,00.html

I would say unlikely. By all accounts he's doing really well, played every game this season and on the fringes on SOO. Still got another year on his contract.

I'm not sure how it works but if he plays for England does that mean he can't play SOO?

Not sure how it works but don't think they will pick him now anyway , but think NSW were looking into getting Morley to play for them when he was over there

Dont see how morley couldve been picked, int it sposed to be where u play your first rugby, therefore reed should still be elligible for SOO shunt he

Yeah they were looking at something if he stayed in the country for 5 yrs
