Yep, if he's back in time. I don't know that I'd have him starting, but he could play himself into the first choice XVII. I do like the idea of Williams and Hastings as a pair, with the control of Hastings and the running threat of Williams. I hope he's back in time, because I'd love to see him play in this England side. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you want to pick a centre who's out for the season, a centre who hasn't played since May and may not play again this year, another centre who's out injured and may not play again this year, an Australian 13 at hooker who's barely played at 9, a badly under-performing hooker, a winger who still makes so many rookie mistakes at club level, a scrum half at 6 who's had a pretty ordinary season and an Aussie 7 who's been pretty poor all year.

So good he doesn't even make the Top 50 in the Stats tables for Tackle breaks, Line Breaks, Try Assists, 40/20s, Tries. Though he has made the 23rd most kicks in the NRL this year !! - Great season he's having Edited September 5, 2022 by Saint Toppy 1 1 St.Helens - The Home of record breaking Rugby Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a half back who's supposed to be the key play maker, kicker & organiser his stats are awful ! Luke Brooks has only played 1 game more with 17 games yet managed 10 try assists, 12 Line Break assists and put in 40 more kicks.

Just what England needs then a half back who lets a truly 2nd rate half back try and shine when his team is bottom of the league !!! Hastings has had a poor season and been outplayed by his half back partner who lets face it is truly awful.
