Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go

2014 Would love to see a GB tour down under
1 Game v PNG in Port Moresby
2 Games in NZ (Auckland and Wellington)
3 Game Ashes series in Oz (Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane)

I'd be far more interested in watching that than another 4 nations.

I would love that every 4/5 years the same as union do, I would add the rider that players would only be chosen from players who qualify by playing for the home nations, that would allow for players who opt for Scotland Ireland & Wales instead of England getting the lions share, I would also consider the French players to be included.

Reed has been in good form from what I've seen and he proved himself to be pretty handy for England last time out. I'd pick him over Atkins, however I'd probably still have him in the squad.

Re: england team for world cup : Tue Jul 10, 2012 12:11 pm  
Lifted straight off the other thread, heres my potential England World Cup squad:


1. Sam Tomkins
2. Josh Charnley
3. Jack Reed
4. Ryan Atkins
5. Ryan Hall
6. Gareth Widdop
7. Danny Brough
8. Adrian Morley
9. James Roby ©
10. James Graham
11. Gareth Hock
12. Gareth Ellis
13. Sean O'Loughlin

14. Jonny Lomax (impact)
15. Kevin Sinfield (utility)
16. Lee Mossop
17. Sam Burgess

Squad members.

18. Tom Briscoe (wing cover)
19. Leroy Cudjoe (Centre cover)
20. Mike Mcllorum (hooker cover)
21. Rob Burrow (hooker/halves cover)
22. Jon Wilkin (utility)
23. Ben Westwood (forward cover)
24. Eorl Crabtree
25. Garreth Carvell

A good mix of youth, experience, with both specialist and utility value there I think.
I don't agree with Brough or Mcllorum playing for England, but they are the rules so ho hum.
Lomax, Mossop & Mcllorum will be a year older and wiser too.
Morley would be great to have around camp even though he wouldn't feature in every game.

Hopefully players like Stefan Ratchford, Kallum Watkins and the other three Burgess boys will have a great 2013 and will be making strong cases for a test shirt too

Interesting tactic, starting with just 12 players. We should, at least, win the sympathy vote.

I assume you would go with Roby at hooker.

I know Charnley is a good player, but playing both wings in the same game is some going for anyone!!! :)

NRL expansion? Sometime soon, maybe......

Re: Great Britain and England : Tue Jul 10, 2012 1:55 pm  
Ideally France would tour at the same time and play PNG one week after GB then play NZ in a three test series whilst GB were playing the Ashes games.
