Regardless,just the fact that Greece are in the competition is a minor miracle itself. The things they've had to do to get here is amazing.

Absolutely, and I hope that something is made of that on national television.

Don't let anyone say these games are pointless:

The NRL guys were the difference:  Young, Hall, Radley and Burgess all to the fore while Greece were (briefly) still in the match. With Greece having completely given up in the second half,

Jammer spot on - should have picked the strongest 17 - Farnworth has hardly played any games this year

Farnworth had his calf strapped up last week.  If he needs a week to be fully fit then I am OK with that. Why risk making a niggle worse?

BBC giving a different line up to the England twitter feed...do we know which one is correct?

I would be surprised if the official England twitter feed was wrong. 

Although I'm not betting on it.

Interested to see how KPP and Dom Young combine - there's a lot of height on that side of the pitch.

Picking Radley so his dad can watch him play has got disaster written all over it. If he is picked hope we minimize his minutes and Knowles gets more of a run this time as both are important and Knowles could do with more minutes in his legs for the knock-outs.

Agree with most that the line up almost doesnt matter as we will win by 70-80 points anyway but it might be an opportunity to see how players go in positions they might need to fill in later in the tournament. I can see all three wingers playing with Makinson either at FB or center and Welsby in the other position. 

I'd go with:

Welsby

Hall, KPP, Makinson, Young

Williams, Sneyd

Oledski, Ackers, Lees

Batchelor, Bateman

Knowles

Cooper, McMeeken, Radley, Thompson

Hill and Burgess rested.

Thank goodness for that. I worried for a moment that everything  was good.

I'm tipping the team in blue and white.
