Does it matter what you call them? they still won't be good enough to beat the Aussie's. If it were GB which players from the Welsh/Irish or Scottish squads would get into a GB team?

I've an idea to beat them Aussies and New Zealanders. Why don't England pick some Aussies and New Zealanders who have lived in this country for a few years or have family that live here? Oh hang on minute ................

Briers is English born so no problem him being selected to play for England. Seeing as he's 34 years old though and retired from the international scene can't see him ever being selected.

OK then I'll rephrase the question. Who in your opinion out of the present Welsh/Irish and Scots eligible players are good enough to play for Great Britain

Spot on gaz, the only reason 90% of the Welsh, Irish and Scots players play for those countries is because although they are English born they were not good enough to be selected for England so they play for a country one of their grandparents once went on a day trip to.

I hope we're not going to go down the route of wrong spelling Blackbeard you're on dodgy ground with that my friend, by the way there should be a space after a comma. :)
