I'm sure Betts will have some input but i would also expect Bennett will be watching some SL throughout the season to form his own opinions. The England team pretty much picks itself in a lot of positions anyway imo.Who will partner Widdop is one tough decision, like you i hope Smith isn't in the team.
out of interest who from Wigan do you think may get in the squad who shouldn't? i think the Tomkins brothers, Bateman, o'loughlin and Sarginson will be in there and possibly Farrell.All will probably be there on merit come October too.
I deffinately wouldnt have Joel Tomkins, I would probably not pick Farrell either as I think Whitehead, Bateman, Currie, Ward and Ferres are all better
I also wouldnt pick SOL as that would mean moving Sam Burgess (our best player) out of his best position, Graham would probably be my captain
I would also have Gale (or possible Brown or even Mcguire if he gets fitness) over Smith or Williams (though Williams would be in the squad)
