I’ve no idea what to make of that,and must be confident McGillvery getting off.

Well, I'm flummoxed. I thought Bennett would be keeping the core of the squad the same especially at the pivots. Will be interesting to see how Brown performs considering how badly Widdop and Gale played last weekend. He might just put himself in contention for a run to the semis/final. Who'd have thunk it back in Feb/March?

Gale needs to control the game like he does at Castleford

Does he think if he continues with Bateman at centre he will eventually pass the ball,thought Atkins was bad till now

I think we'll see Percival on the wing with Ratchford at centre

Just had a glance on the VT .. There's a few on there that want Chris Hill dropped and replaced with Taylor ..Top Bants..!

I can't say that i'd blame anyone questioning Hill's selection, definitely 'off colour' for us last season and has he ripped it up over there....not really?

Heard that Rachford is playing on the wing.

Now I see Ratchford as a cracking centre, a very good full back, a very good lock or a decent stand off

But I’ve never once thought “why don’t we play him on the wing?!”

I’d agree. I don’t think Hill is in any kind of form at all and is actually lucky to be there after this year’s performances.

Possibly looking at wing options after last week's diabolical.
I think Ratchford would be more than happy to offer wing cover if it'll give him a chance at starting.

Massive performance needed today.

Much better, Gale still garbage, glad he went off for Williams.

England so much better when Hodgson isn't on the field. The halves see so much more of the ball. Brown playing well here.

I'm not sure if you're allowed to compliment Brown on this forum.

Who is video ref ffs, got be English.

Great first eight minutes

Okay rest of the first half

Absolutely terrible in the second half!

PNG will be rubbing their hands because we are simply average in our execution and fluidity.

I think there was enough there to say we will be ok. We have Watkins, Hall, Burgess , Whitehead to come back the others that didnt play i would leave out.

Spine for me.

Brown

Roby

Gale only because Williams never took his chance.

I'd agree with that - Although I personally thought Gale looked pretty good first half, wasn't on much in the second.

I think Bennett will bring Lomax and Hodgson back in though, meaning Widdop back in the halves and Brown missing out.

Be interesting to see what he does with Currie with Burgess presumably back.

Currie may miss out, due to a hand injury.

Didn’t see that,did he go off, how bad was it. Because if that rules him out I don’t see him getting back in.

We looked much better with widdop at 1 and Roby at 9. Brown played well for England like he usually does, if currie is fit I would play him at centre instead of Bateman as he adds more to the team.

They were as good as they needed to be, got the job done early and then coasted, PNG will be a tough challenge.
