Quote ="General Zod."Get some perspective.
Calderwood was selected on the basis of his form at the time (good kick chase performance for Wigan in the play-offs).
Wellens & Gardner were selected, even Sykes was selected FFS (not to mention a few others) and the England team failed miserably (as they have done for a few years now) to a point were it was clear to many Smith's selection policy was a joke.
So imply that selection from a (so far) total failure of international coach holds much weight in terms one players ability over another is a flawed idea.
Fox is a better winger than Calderwood already and will prove so again this season.'"
the balance of the squad was a disgrace. the amount of backrowers we took meant that players with 'utility' were taken instead of players who could realisticly challange fo places.
i dont think the calderwood v fox was a relevent discussion as both should have gone instead of gardner.
injuries and form permitting fox should play for england in the 4 nations to give him big game experience and if i was hkr i'd get a long deal in front of him asap.
