Is that for 't mid season test?

yeap. what do you think?
surely bobby had some help getting that lot together.

You would think so. I know he has seen TO and the Dragons in the UK at almost every opportunity though. You could argue those players pick themselves, however.

He was also at the France A game at Wakey (I think) and Toulouse' win against Leigh as the LDC semis were the same weekend, so he's been about.

A few left out though Greseque, Taylor, Wynne to name three

interesting to see 2 non-frenchmen left out.
aren't france sending a team to scotland in early may?

Maybe 6, Bosc 7, Rinaldi 9, Bentley?

surely rinaldi at 9?

Interesting to see, Bentley aside no overseas born players in the squad
No Murph and none of the other possibles from the Dragons.




Dont know, Cant see it myself unless its some kind of Domestic fixture, would imagine Scotland would have no chance of raising a competetive squad of Pro players in May.

It would be nice to have 2 quality 9s like Kane and Rinaldi, with bosc and Maxime at 6 and 7 but Otherwise you could be looking at Moly at 7 and Id rather have my teeth extracted without anathestic.

pretty sure i read something about scotland a vs france federale in edinburgh. this friday actually (holiday in france).

Mounis at 6 ??

Quite possible, Federale is the lower leagues in France and so then it would make sense for them to play a domestic Scottish side.

that'll be it then. never thought it would be a full blown international

If he's fit I can't understand why Taylor's been left out. Only Nick Youngquest beats him as the LER's best fullback.

didnt he leave for uk?

Oh yeah had forgotten about that.

In that case he's THE top LER fullback!

gateshead?

Stacul at FB?

He was very average at the WC though, maybe Villegas could play FB?

Goulding out

not yet

It was pathetic that he was included in the first place. Well done to Goulding for leaving out the embarrassing Queensland Cup imports.

Whats pathetic about playing well within the rules?

Did you condemn Tony Smith when he selected Maurie Fa'savalu?

We won't win a match, so why use some squad-level etranger to lower the score deficit when we could invest in youth.

Goulding has obviously been reading these posts, as it looks like he's picking TO/Catalan players and sending a message out to Greseque - "play with the best or don't get into the national squad".

Pick the strongest squad available. Omitting James Wynne or Jared Taylor (Greseque I am indifferent frankly) is not doing so and IMO is completely silly and counter-productive.
