:lol: I can't believe people took Vastman's team so seriously, especially after his first sentence. The dude literally put every overseas player we had in it, obviously, some kind of emoticon was needed. After the talk of Wakefield players been taken out of one persons line up and replaced by other players from other teams. It was obvious what his line up was all about. But anyway at least someone got 4 likes for taking it in.

Randell

Randell has a bit to prove yet but I wanted a hooker on the bench and couldnt think of a better candidate.

Decent side though I reckon. People talk about declining quality of imports, and fair enough, theres no Jamie Lyon, Big Les or the likes in there, but there are still some quality players.

Yeah, that's a good quality side with no real weaknesses. Without wanting to have an 'overinflated view on how good' our players are, I'd personally stick Tupou in at Centre but no biggie.

Could be a decent game, depending on who was allowed to play in the England team.
If England were at full strength (similar to the WC final squad) they would win comfortably.
I dont think the "Exiles" pack would cope but, if it was English based players, it would be a very close game indeed.

No one took his team seriously. But you're right it was obvious what his line up was about, the chip on the shoulder again. He may well not pick 7 Wildcats players if done seriously but he certainly thinks others should be picking more in their team as his reaction here and similar on the other Exiles thread came after someone posted a team containing just the one Wildcats player on the bench.

This was one occasion where I didn't think an emoticon was need, not even on the VT home of the pedant.

I was wrong, you live and learn.

~Hang on, i thought this was just for fun... is this game actually happening? I've seen/heard nowt about it at all.

Just been on the RFL forum and under the fixtures page there are no fixtures, absolutely nothing. No England rugby league fixtures at all according to our governing body.

I think you can buy Union tickets for England games two years in advance!

I know what a Lioner is, it's a fan of the current and 8 times SL champions Leeds Rhinos and no Leeds fan minds being called that a Lionel.

A Wildcat like yourself is a fan of the small time SL club Wakefield Wildcats still bitter about a cup final 50 years ago :lol:
