EastLondonMike Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 I think theres a few spots where preferences will be marginal. For instance i really like Manfredi as a player, but am not convinced he's back to his best yet, hence opting for Makinson on the right wing. Johnstone also probably deserves a chance, but i really like the look of Herbie Farnworth. We do have some good options in some positions. Newham Dockers - Champions 2013.

daz39 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Some weird answers, the question asked for England team NOW and yet some people put 'if everyone was fit' ?? eh, if they're not fit they can't be picked - surely? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sold on any of our centres at international level . Im going on the attack . We’ve tried to be conservative and win by defence and structure to many times , it hasn’t worked . Score points and get on the front foot . Not madness at all . You have to play outside the box to beat australia . Throw stuff at them - not contain them .Wed have won the WC if we did . Both Manfredi and Farnworth are big , strong , fast and can move well laterally and defend . And they’re attacking weapons more importantly . Australia pick their best players to get them out there , I’m doing that . I looked at the centres and thought these blokes are better so I shoved them in . I like my side so there Edited August 21, 2020 by DavidM 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM2010 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Does anyone else rate Cameron Smith at Leeds? From what I've seen of him he looks like a bit of an old school type back rower with good hands and an offload 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
