UTK 121 Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 The comment about not being allowed a mid-season test is concerning if taken literally, though that could well just mean they weren't able to organise one given current circumstances. Has anyone got a better insight that could shed further light on that situation? Link to post Share on other sites
Man of Kent 8,449 Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 I just love the name Foggin-Johnson. Sounds like some 1930s blues singer from the Deep South. Anyway, there's a decent backline in that squad. Just not sure about the forwards. Link to post Share on other sites

JM2010 763 Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 I'd like to see nations like Jamaica, Nigeria and Lebanon given the opportunity to take on the stronger European nations (excluding England) more regularly. Maybe one of the years in a WC cycle could accommodate a tournament involving France, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Italy/Greece plus the 3 nations mentioned above. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

nadera78 2,931 Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 Surprised to see Lloyd White included on that list. Wonder why he's switching from Wales?

I wish Jamaica well, genuinely, but I will be supporting Ireland here for sure. Romeo Monteith deserves some sort of award though for being a RL legend, his enthusiasm is fantastic.

Beavers left nut 31 Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 (edited) Something like this would be there strongest possible line up. The squad has a lot of wingers and is a bit light on front rowers. Will be relying on their league 1 forwards I think Ashton Golding (Huddersfield) Ben Jones-Bishop (York City Knights) Jordan Turner (Castleford Tigers) Jacob Ogden (London Broncos) Dom Young (Newcastle Knights) James Woodburn-Hall (Halifax) Izaac Farrell (Sheffield Eagles) Jon Magrin (Dewsbury Rams) Lloyd White (Toulouse Olympique) Jordan Andrade (Hunslet Hawks) Joel Farrell (Sheffield Eagles) Luis Johnson (Hull Kingston Rovers) Michael Lawrence (Huddersfield Giants) Ross Peltier (Doncaster) Keenen Tomlinson (Dewsbury Rams) Lamont Bryan (London Skolars) Omari Caro (London Skolars) Greg Johnson (Batley Bulldogs) Edited June 19 by Beavers left nut 2 Link to post Share on other sites
