Look at the full squad...11 forwards
Although it is to be increased to a 25/30 man squad over the next few months.

Wake up son, it's not the final squad. It's an initial 17 Smith wants to work with first and none of them are guaranteed a place against France. Apart from the fact he's actually said as much, it's not difficult to work out is it?

It's the 17 players who he see's at the moment as the best 17 players to play for England now and in the near future, hence the name 'Elite'.

It isn't a squad, that is clear now - it is a (first) group of elite players. They will form a core, from which teams are selected, with Lee Smith, Ade Gardener and a few more no-mark Wire players drafted in to make up the numbers when nobody is looking.

No it's the initial 17 of the elite training squad. There's no wingers or fullbacks, so I'm sure there'll be more other than that 17 who will regularly play for england 'now and in the near future'.

| Only Rovers and underachieving Huddersfield without representation, from the English SL teams. High-flying Wire one of only four clubs with more than 1 player called up. Might add a bit of spice to the Cup Q-final!

It seems clear that this squad will be extended to 25 players and the sqaud looks light on backs. The likes of Briscoe, Fox, Smith, Hall, Hodgson etc will all be fighting with each other for the remaining spots, if they play to their best they should get in.'"
Yes our crowds are atrocious
how envious we are of Cas, Wakey, Quins, Cats, Hudds, Celtic, Salford

Well as a country we are well and truly screwed cos we have no good full backs, and one of our best wingers is injured
Thing you got that one wrong Matt

| Considering the Quins home game is now the night before this meaningless match v France, I hope this policy on not picking Rovers players continues.
Let me think, picking up the odd international honour or some silverware? Tough decision.

| I'm sturggling to understand why this 17 man squad has been named. When it includes injured players and no players in certain postitions, you have to wonder why it's been named at all and what it's supposed to acheive
Surely announcing a strong 25 which includes players like Briscoe, Fox, Hock, Gleeson, Lynch, Pryce etc... would have made more sense?

| As a Rovers fan I can honestly say I am not fussed if we get none in and never have been, my first and only priority is Rovers. Let the other clubs risk their best players in the middle of a tough season.

I agree - I just worry about a perception developing that playing for Rovers is unhelpful to a player's International prospects. If Wellens is done with England, Briscoe has little meaningful competition and if Fox hasn't done enough to convince Smith, you wonder if he ever can. Sometimes coaches just don't fancy certain players. If the 4 nations turns into another debacle for England (and I'll hope it doesn't, even if no HKR players are involved), then I think Justin Morgan could do a good job on a part-time basis.
