UT: Rob Burrow

Standby Options: Chris Hill, Kyle Amory, Lee Mossop, Chris Heighington, Michael McIlorum, Leroy Cudjoe, Josh Charnley.

Craig Huby ahead of Crabtree, Hill, Mossop and Amor.

Whilst i agree with Widdop at stand off i would certainly have Kevin Brown as backup, been outstanding this season thus far and a much better option than having Sinfield operate there. He's great for Leeds but shouldn't be near the international arena.

Tomkins, Hardaker/Lomax
Hall, Briscoe, Makinson
Watkins, Reed, Shenton
Widdop, Hodgkinson, Sneyd
Graham (c) G Burgess, Hill, Walmsley, Taylor
Roby, Lunt/ Clark (oh the wonders of having competition!)
Whitehead, Ablett, Ferres, Westwood
O'Loughlin, Westerman

If Sinfield shouldn't be "near" the international arena, you'd have to pick from a squad of about 8 to play for England based on actual performances at that level.

One area that's starting to look a long way behind Aus/NZ is second row. Not an impressive cast at all.

Agree with 22 of the names but, I'd leave out Rob Burrow and Eorl Crabtree, and include Jonny Lomax and Kyle Amor

That's only 23

Slammin' Sam wlil be off to rugby union at year's end. He is not eligible!

I'd go with:
Starting lineup of:

1. Hardaker
2. Briscoe
3. Watkins
4. Reed
5. Hall
6. Sinfield
7. Tomkins
8. Graham
9. Roby
10. Burgess. G
11. Ablett
12. Westwood
13. O'Loughlin

14. Widdop
15. Hill
16. Crabtree
17. Ferres

Rest of squad:
18. Lomax
19. Walmsley
20. Whitehead
21. Makinson
22. Lunt
23. Farrell
24. Amor

I don't know how Hill cant be in the 24 man squad. He has carried our pack on his own, especially with Westwood being injured and anyone else who seems to pack down as a prop suddenly turning into a Warren Stevens-esque type of player.
