Ainscough is worth a shot for the France game imo if for nothing else then abit of experience. The same applies to Myler.



As for a more experienced head who's always played superbly well for GB when selected Sean O'Loughlin deserves a place somewhere.



He's been nothing short of outstanding this year.

Personally I feel O'Loughlin would be better suited in the second row?

Without doubt and it's a role he's excelled in the past for GB.



I think Lockers has gained more respect from fans in general over the years because of his form with GB which has always been very good but his Wigan form possibly hasn't been quite upto that level until this season. His allround contribution this year has been fantastic and he really is leading from the front.



Without getting into a debate about who's better his form for GB has always been far better then anything Sinfield/JJB/Purdham/Hock/Wilkin etc produced during the past world cup.

All the promising SL players should be played with one or two experianced heads. If we play the likes of Myler, Westerman, Shenton, LMS, Ainscough, Tomkins, Atkins, Fox, Briscoe etc. It will give them all experiances and it will make for a competive game IMO. Hopefully a few of them prove themselves and get into the 4 nations squad. We wont achieve anything if we play the England "regulars" and they win by 50 points.

Retired from international rugby.

And the rest of the world can now sleep peacefully.....

keith senior is still a good player and could probably still do a good job at international level, if he hadn't retired. But i still believe it's time for England to stop playing the regulars and try the rising stars in english rugby league. Thats the only way that England are going to move forward on the international team

in that case swap for Gleeson

thought atkins looked quality against wigan, powerful so would go with
