If you taped the game watch it again when your sober. Sinfields goal kicking was below his usual standard but his general play was good. He had a hand in several tries and was the better of the two halves by a distance

Wow, did you really watch the game?

What a load of crap!! People just listen to what the commentators say and base all their opinions on that! Chase and Sinfield had a hand in the first 3 tries, kept turning them round with kicks. I can only remember Chase making one poor kick when he should have passed. Davies spent too much time moaning about England played rather than commentating on the game

I would stick with the same team.

Possibly swap Carvell for Wilkin.



maybe swap chase for widdop.

chase could ad some zip from the bench which I think we miss from robinson/burrow

Good point. We have nothing to offer from the bench otherwise. Suggests the coach isn't concerned that we'll ever get behind and need to change things!

I wouldn't argue with this

Personally, I would go with Gareth Widdop @ 6, Rangi Chase @ 7 and Kevin Sinfield @ 13, with an impact playmaker coming off the bench. My choice would have been either Rob Burrow or Luke Robinson, but due to the squad that Steve McNamara has selected, it would have to be Danny McGuire.

Why do people continually suggest players not even in the squad? At this point in time you may as well suggest picking a halfback combination of Andy Gregory and Garry Schofield.



As it is, moving Chase to the bench for Widdopp may make sense. I wouldn't put Sinfield at loose forward - we'll need all the grunt we can muster in the pack. I'd still prefer another prop on the bench as well.

from the squad available I would go for



1. Tomkins

2. Hall

3. Reed

4. Yeaman

5. Briscoe- Although I think he has been poor in the last two games



6- Widdop

7- Sinfield



8- Graham

9- Roby

10- Peacock

11- JJB

12- Ellis

13- Heighton



Subs-



14- Chase

15- Carvell

16- Westwood- he's been excellent in the two previuos games but I think as an impact international player would be immense

17- Moz



Sinfield organises the Leeds team round he used to do this at 13, so keep him there. I am wondering why players such as himself can do it with their eyes shut in the SL but struggle at the international game. Sean Long springs to mind bar one match against OZ he went missing throughout his international career.

i think the results of this poll www.internationalrugbyleague.net/polls.htm are staggering.

General play was good? He didnt create all which was his job. He will get embarrassed playing there on Saturday because he just isnt good enough.

Errmmm - are you sure ?



His distribution was spot on, general kicking game was good, played a big part in several of the tries. Rangi's game didn't really come off, I don't get why the commentators kept banging on about the halves not working together, when it was plainly obvious that Sinfield was playing out wide on the right, and Rangi on the left. It was more about how they brought their outside backs into play, and how they linked up with the very dangerous Tomkins.
