Nice to see Crabtree get a chance to knock em over

thats pack is effing huge

Somethin that we will need and should have been against France, glad to see Smith is starting Graham. The selection is probably the best we can put out.

very strong pack

but would like to see a rugby league player instead of Lee Smith

Would liked to have seen Ben Westwood dropped for Gareth Carvell and use Crabtree in the second row.



Correct decision to go with Tomkins and to start James Graham.



I agree with dropping Scott Moore but I don't know how we're going to play that one with no recognised hooker on the bench. Roby to play the 80? Eastmond to move to hooker? Sinfield to nine?



Someone made a good point on the cherry and white forum in that we would look a lot stronger in the centres with Martin Gleeson.

Mine would of been

Sinfield really needs to take control like he does for Leeds.

Roby's passing can be dreadfull at times so it will be interesting to see how he goes.

No complaints with the team really,

Tomkins should have been in for Myler for the France game, and Eastmond can hopefully come on and cause problems too.

Should have been Gleeson and Senior, then the team actually looks pretty strong.

Sadly I have to agree.

Balls to them two has beens.



They have had their chance on many occasion and have failed to produce anything like what an International player should.



Good on TS for dropping them just like he did with the likes of Pryce & Gardner.

quite right pal.
