| With the 24 man squad announcement for the Four Nations coming up, I thought we'd see what team we put together as a board. I'll be putting on different positions every so often with a shortlist to pick from. The squad will have 2 Full Backs, 3 Wingers, 3 Centres, 3 Halves, 2 Hookers, 6 props and 5 back rowers. If any players you'd like to pick aren't on the shortlist than please say.
For today we will do centres, you have three votes on the poll and please indicate your order of playing preference in a post. In the case of positions on the bench starting spots will be allocated on preference.

| I don't think Reed is going to be available, I seem to remember he got injured at the back end of the season.

| Went for Shenton and Sarginson.
Would have selected Bridge if he'd been listed as I think he's better than Watkins, Cudjoe & Wardle.

Wups, forgot about Bridge and Atkins.
I'll edit now although I think it may wipe the current votes so those who have voted thus far will need to re-vote.

Hardaker
Bridge
Hardaker needs to play somewhere IMO and he'd do ok in the centres.

Bridge
Wardle
Difficult choice between Wardle and Shenton, but I think the toughness of the former just makes him better suited to test rugby.

| Not a great choice really after Watkins. Maybe Hardaker could play there in reeds absence?
I went for
Watkins
Shenton
Cudjoe
Cudjoe not been great this year but I think he's better than the others named

| I've been really impressed with Joe Wardle over past 2 seasons, think he looks good in both attack and defence and would love to see him get a shot. I think if Percival can develop over the next couple of years like he has done this year he will be in there but dont think he is ready just yet. My 3 would be:
Wardle
Shenton
Watkins

That was my choice. Sarginson has had a very good second half of the season and got the better of both Watkins and Cudjoe in their recent meetings. His other advantage is that he can can provide cover from the #1 to #6 positions.

| Where does Stefan Ratchford fit in? Will he come under the halves section? He's a certainty for me just because of his cover in the backs positions and halves.
As for the options above Shenton & Watkins are 1st choice, I'd have Bridge as back up.

Yep will be listed in the halves as that's where he's played the most rugby.

| I've always really like Bridge as a centre, but has he payed a lot recently? I don't feel like I've seen much.
Whenever I've seen Wardle, he's looked excellent (much better than Cudjoe) and seems a tough lad to boot.
I'd probably go for Wardle and Watkins. Watkins seems to have the odd blip, but when he fires he's great.

| Watkins and bridge to start, Atkins in reserve. I would also take ratchford as cover for multiple positions.
I wouldn't have cudjoe anywhere near an international team.

Sargison can't tackle and would get crucified at international level

I would have agreed early on in the season but the second half he has been good. Don't forget that he had to get used to a completely different defensive system than what he had been used to, and he's still only 21.

Fair enough, I suppose you see him more than me.
