For once I'm going to have to put club to one side and say against the Australians a solid last line of defence gets it so it's Briscoe for me

For once I'm going to have to put club to one side and say against the Australians a solid last line of defence gets it so it's Briscoe for me For me Briscoe is one of the bravest players of the game, his defence & positional play are both solid. I think we are going to need someone who is not afraid of taking a few knocks or being "ruffed up abit".

Briscoe, we are going to get beat anyway, but Eastmond at full back would be suicide.

But as usual we're struggling for centres. Id play T. Briscoe and Eastmond in the centres. S. Briscoe at full back and smith and hall on the wings. Not the biggest set of backs in the world (hall aside) but RL is not just about size.
