Always though Henderson was a decent Hooker at Bradford, was confused when they let him go.

Always been a big believer that this pick your country stuff is a farce. Would rather roll out 13 english lads and get mullered then a team with aussies, scots and Kiwis and put up a better fight.

Henderson and Brough should both continue to play for Scotland and improve their national team.

I kind of agree with that, but would players hold on to wait and see if they got picked for, say, New Zealand making the Pacific Islands teams even weaker?

How do all these pacific Islanders suddenly become a kiwi is it parents or living there?

The diminutive Rhinos favourite wears the number seven shirt for the Super League champions but he has not looked back since moving to hooker and England coach Steve McNamara admits he now sees him in that role.'" so why pick the 30 year old scotland captain & HOOKER!!!!!!!! the guy is a nob!

Where did Brough learn to play RL ? Where did Henderson get his RL education? In a few years if he cannot make the England squad what odds of him turning out for France ?

These so called "Pacific Islanders" (sic) where did they learn to play RL ? Could you list the players currently representing came to new zealand on a pro/semi pro contract without ever playing in New Zealand before?
