I can count on the stump of an amputated wrist how many tries Welham has created a try out of nothing.

Ben Jones Bishop is a far better player.
I'd go Bridge and Reed.

Is that why you can't type properly too?
Back to the topic, I don't think either Yeaman or Whelham should be in the England team. Both have been good in poor teams this year. Why would our national team have centres from the 7th and 8th teams in the league?
Bridge or Atkins on one side, Reed on the other (kind of obvious given the extents they went to to have him play for England).

Welham is crap, Yeaman isn't.

| Cudjoe and Atkins would my my choices on current form with Bridge close behind. Still not good enough to compete in this particular position though.

| I know which props will be picked but surely Peacock, Carvell and Morley have all had many opportunities at international level and they get beat time after time. They maybe the form props but I'd like to see a fresh pack given the chance to play and hopefully move to the next level or at least get a chance to see what is required to be at the top of our game.
The three mentioned are woefully slow and I dread to think of the metres gained through the ruck by Smith, Luke and co. especially in the 2nd half of games. I'm up for Mason/Griffen, Mossop and LMS to be tried.

I agree with your theory that Morley, Graham and Peacock (not so sure about Carvell) have had plenty of opportunities and never been that successful....However, its ridiculous that they should make way for the type of players you suggest. All those you list aren't fit to take over from the established props.
All you do is highlight the dearth of talent in our game and how sad it is that guys like Morley are still head and shoulders above their younger pretenders....Just watch Morley bossing Griffin and Mason on Friday night, or Graham being his usual dependable self today, to realise that these guys are the best we have to offer.
Yes, with the older guys we will get beat, but with your proposed starters in the pack, we would be humiliated.

I still say give them a try they will play better with better players around them (I didn't mention Graham, he should play) and give them the encouragement to progressLMS was awesome today and far more mobile than the wolves forwards.

One of the 2, Mason is a good aggressive prop. I'd start with him and Graham to quite-down Scott and Petro or whoever, and then bring on LMS and whoever but it's their 2nd that wins it for them. We have nothing to cope with any of Myles, Creagh, Stewart, Watmough or anyone else they pick there.
