anyone omitted that you think should be there or any youngsters deserve a call up to the full squad.

Made up that Chris Hill has made it. Totally deserved. I didn't think I'd see Morley in there again.

No Roby?

[Eden]

Roby and McGuire are rested according to Code13 article.

[hindle xiii]

Melbourne Storm half-back Gareth Widdop, who played a pivotal role in his club’s Grand Final victory over Graham’s Bulldogs last Sunday, and Brisbane Broncos centre Jack Reed both miss out with shoulder injuries and will undergo surgery in the close season.
Other notable absentees include Huddersfield Giants prop Eorl Crabtree (shoulder), St Helens forward Jon Wilkin (shoulder and elbow) and Hull FC’s Danny Tickle (bicep). St Helens dynamic hooker James Roby is rested alongside Leeds half-back Danny McGuire.

Doubtful Graham will feature in all honesty.

Barring the trio of Ablett, Jones-Buchanan and Chase, everyone else is pretty much in on merit, even if they are old-heads and Sinfield.

i think looking at the overall squad most are picked on current form. apart from roby though who is being rested and wilkin maybe?, then a lack of st helens players shows their current predicament. not enough quality in their squad. however they still came 3rd in the table, does this show that the super league is still not strong enough. theres only about 6 sides represented from the english super league, surely this isnt good enough.

[Viking Warrior]

can't believe that chase and ablett are in the squad, arguably 2 of the worst players this season. surely lomax and josh jones have done enough for a call up on merit this season , but there again the squad was selected by the worst coah that bradford bulls had in the past 25 years.

[Wolford6]

I'm glad Wilkin is in. Hopefully, he'll cop for a few retributive clatter tackles.

Misread the list. He isn't in. Booo!!!

wilkin isnt in!

[Exiled Wiganer]

We need a 7 and a kicking game. The forwards and 3/4 are just about talented enough to be competitive, but we have a desperate need for play makers. On that basis I would have picked Lomax and Brough ahead of Myler and Chase.

[Viking Warrior]

chase has hardly played this season and when he has he has been distinctly below average. whereas lomax, brough etc etc have had excellent seasons.

[Father Ted]

All we need now is a decent coach!

[Johnoco]

Not sure what Chase has done to warrant inclusion TBH. Perhaps its a case of him (SM) having to justify all the kerfuffle in the first place.

[Optimus]

Agreed, completely.
He is bonkers isn't he! Tempting fate I feel with the GF around the corner but Myler? Why?

Would love to see a young 3/4 line of Atkins, Watkins, Charnley and Hall
Tomkins chiming in
Then get Brough and Lomax that would be quite fun to watch.
Myler and Chase both running round like headless chickens without following any form of gameplan and zero kicking game.
Oh wait, we have Sinfield, all is ok?

ablett will be in because of his squad value as he can play anywere in the forwards and has not done a bad job at centre . some would say that ryan hall has had better service from ablett than he got from hardaker

[Scubby]

Sam Burgess as England captain? Would give a clear indication that they are looking to the future.
