Was it our chairman openly acknowledging it that gave it away? I don't know how serious (replying 'very serious' won't perturb me btw) they are, but I do know they will be less immediate and severe than some Hull fans would hope.
Anyway, my revised England team to start the 4 nations:

can't see that myself, I reckon lee smith will be in the centre with the scrum half being either eastmond or warrington new boy myler despite tomkins 3 tries yesterday, unless he goes with mcguire at 7 and tomkins at 6.
I reckon that pack looks pretty good and will compete though I'd stick Carvell on the bench with Morley, but in the backs the aussies and kiwis will hammer us.

Completely agree. Reckon Briscoe will be kept very busy as the last line of defence.

It is what I'd do rather than what I think will happen.
Who would you drop for Carvell? For me he doesn't offer anything different and others do the same better. Thought Burgess was very good last night. If we had an organizer in the halves, you could put him at loose, but we'll need Sinfield I think. I thought Myler was very anonymous. Smith has a shot at a wing (Fox was either played on the right because he is certain to play or because T. Smith wouldn't be to sorry to drop him again - can't decide which), or centre spot. IMO Eastmond in the centres would be a chance to do something bold and seize the initiative.

briscoe
fox
bridge
shenton
hall
mcguire
myler
graham
moore
morley
peacock
ellis
burgess
crabtree
carvell
o'loughlin
roby
our only, slight, chance is bully them down the middle and hope their backs dont see much ball.

Fox is very over rated . He should be nowhere near the England first team.
He was poor for Rovers the back end of the season and is now showing his true form .
It shows the lack of quality and depth in SL that Fox is even being considered.
Tommy Briscoe however

So poor that he made the Super League Dream Team. Looks like he is over-rated by people in high places. He is 1 of the 2 best wingers in SL (not my opinion, those who pick the dream team).
Having watched him all year, he is off form, but early/mid season he was comfortably an international standard winger.
