Modified the team list above to minimise the damage to morale of having too many from woeful Wakefield. It is now a very strong team.

Justin carney is better than Gary Lo

Are you sure? Watch Garry Lo in 2018.

Also there could be a morale problem if Justin Carney was included, because the other players would have to be constantly checking on the whereabouts of their spouses.

So are you saying that you could have picked more from woeful Wakefield, or have I missed something in translation from your native Chorleyan tongue?

I initially picked four from woeful Wakefield, while forgetting the two superior players from Hull FC. This blunder has been edited out.

Luckily for you then Jean you were able to hastily come across two inferior Hull players to cover up your embarrassment, cringeworthy from a man of your experience and status in the world of International rugby league.

This blunder of yours must have been to some magnitude John when you had to edit it 3 times in total

Btw John I'll give you Minicheddars is from Hull instead of Horo, but Roberts plays for Cas button not Hull. HTH
