Lunt for a place in the England squad?

I've not seen an English hooker in better form for the past couple of months for sure. He's a whole hearted player and a huge threat with ball in hand.

It's be a huge rise for the lad from NL2 to the international scene all within 12months but if he's good enough he deserves the place.

He has the form but I can't see that happening. Strangely I see Moore getting called up even though Lunt is ahead of him at the club!

Moore will get in imo which i agree is strange when we could pick a guy ahead of him who plays at the same club and is outplaying him in form terms.

TBH though Moores from as a whole over the course of the season has been good and he played well for England in the French test. His face is in and around the squad now so he'll probably get the call.

They both probably deserve a spot in a 22/23 man squad to be honest but they'll more then likely only pick 2 and use Burrow or McGuire as fill in's if needs be.

Lunts form must make Moore's return to St Helens all the easier to deal with for Huddersfield fans.

I think perhaps people are getting a bit excited by saying he is ready for an international call up. He has just had a great season but still has a lot to learn.
His still needs to work on his distribution and his kicking game. He is a natural athelte who has explosive pace but i feel he needs to cement his place in the Giants team before people start to look at further honours.

I agree with that, especially his kicking game, great player, great future but lots more to come before I think smith would give him a look in. Well done lunty!

i agree that lunt isnt ready for international call ups, but neither was richie myler so perhaps a game against wales might be in the offering.

I assume it's because he's classed as the benchmark for English hookers. Not seen much from him this season to warrant a call up so i'd personally pick both Moore and Lunt ahead of him. I'm sure you'd have him at Leeds instead of Dickskin and Danny (sicknote) buderus :wink:
