JJB is a machine. True story.

It can, I often think, be a problem with international sides that they pick a lot of the more showy players whose qualities are easily seen, and often lack the "glue" type of unsung hero that make a successful team work properly. The inclusion of JJB and Westwood addresses that for England, and that is, in my view, a good thing.

Agree. Looks to have been selected largely on the basis that he plays in the NRL to me. Maybe he'll prove us wrong with subsequent performances.

If it were up to me (whicvh thankfully it isn't) I'd go for a big ball carrier at 13 to start with, and consider moving Sinfield there and adding another creative player off the bench later in the game.

It doesn't work. Leeds lost nearly every penalty count last year despite Sir Kev's silvery tongue. And don't even mention wendyball, for f***s sake, they are ALL gob$h!tes. I don't know how you can single any one of them out.

You made a stupid statement about Peacock and now you are stuck trying to defend it.
