Tom Johnstone and Mike McMeeken both named in Shaun Wane's 31 man England squad for the autumn Internationals

I’d expect both to play too.

Marshall scores try’s but he’s not on the same level as TJ bringing the ball out and creating opportunities for himself and others. It’s clear to see why he hasn’t been selected till now. Still a good winger though.

Mckmeeken back in second row again tonight.

It doesn't make a difference but they'll both be still classed as Catalan players when the game is played

That’s true but I will support them as they’re incoming.

Watching the Catalans game. Keeping an extra eye on Mckmeeken.

Just a thought but is Bateman still available?

I know we are chasing an edge forward but he would be a solid signing and it would leave the door open for someone like Parcell.

I would imagine recruitment is pretty much done though by now.

Still very interested to see who we have signed and re-signed.

Must be about 6-8 to announce at least.

He's playing for a top team and not exactly setting the world alight. (Though I haven't seen today's game)
I wouldn't complain if we did but he wouldn't be my target.

Never said he was but he had a solid game today and would be a solid acquisition.

I suspect recruitment may be done. Just a matter of time till they’re announced.

Not impressed with Mckmeeken these last 2 games.

He looked a world beater beginning of season but he looks very unfit to me.

He’s trailing in back play, not making much impact hitting the line and just got stood up standing in defence for the try in the middle.

He seems to be suffering from playing multiple positions in games too. Started first 20 in second row and looked ok. Moved to prop and back end of first half looks tired and struggling.

Saying that Catalans are dire.

A lot of their players are blowing heavy and fitness looks a real issue for them collectively.

I haven't changed my mind based on these games. He's a prop now.
