    He is a far better stand off than center and Karl is a beast, he played for the bulls before going to union and then movin back to league and wigan. We played him scrum half against west tigers in wcc. 6ft 6inch - 18stone scrum half, yeah we won lol

    thank you someone with a brain, and we do have quite a good few options at scrum half this year, Richie Myler, Kyle Eastmond, Rob Burrow from the ones id pick

    Sam Burgess is the best English player atm, and I hate Souffs.

    Gareth Ellis is just as good.

    Burgess playing tight and Ellis wide is just too gun.

    Thats the advantage we have at the moment is that our pack is awsome, just need the right combinations behind that and we can beat anyone

    But the ESL is a joke comp. McGuire > Pryce comfortably. Pryce should play centre.

    IF ESL is such a joke competition how come we keep beating your best teams in the world club challenge bar leeds two years ago and st helens in 2003.

    Internationally yes you are better no doubt there but as a competition ours is better.

    Id love to see the 1996 wcc again with the two leagues now, i bet a super league club would win it.

    An nrl club would win it. Just it wouldn't be ridiculous scorelines again.

    Because its played on our off season, in your country, and we dont usually field full strength sides?

    If England had backs they'd be awesome. They have potentially the best pack out of the three teams.

    Sinfield was awesome at hooker last year in the FN.

    As for Pryce, I don't think his style really translates particularly well to representative football because he likes to slow things down; he's not an up-tempo player and ends up a bit lost in really up-tempo games. It works very well in the ESL and it's probably work in the NRL too but I'd be more inclined to either play McGuire at five-eighth, or pick a real halfback and play Eastmond at five-eighth.

    it looks like danny mCguire may have either broken his leg or done his medial/latarel ligament in his knee last night dint look good at all, will find out in the morning what is wrong im guessing, dont think he will be a big loss tbh, he sucks in defence and is the english version of jarryd hayne, people slag him off but as soon as he does something half good everyone is up his arse

    Backs: R Atkins (Warrington), T Briscoe (Hull), K Brown (Huddersfield), T Clubb (Harlequins[​IMG]), L Cudjoe (Huddersfield), D Goulding (Wigan), R Hall (Leeds), L Robinson (Huddersfield), S Tomkins (Wigan), M Shenton (Castleford), G Widdop (Melbourne).

    Forwards: S Burgess (South Sydney), E Crabtree (Huddersfield), G Ellis (Wests Tigers), S Fielden (Wigan), J Graham (St Helens), D Griffin (Huddersfield), B Harrison (Warrington), S Lunt (Huddersfield), A Morley (Warrington, capt), S O'Loughlin (Wigan), J Roby (St Helens), J Tomkins (Wigan), B Westwood (Warrington).

    not sure about the hudders forwards, i just dont think un-capped played should be going to AUS/NZ on a tour of such a high value, we HAVE to perform and i can see them doing it if we get injuries. Although its the same with the backs we are very light on good players in this squad
