Quote MICHAEL Maguire has thrown his support behind a proposed mid-season match between England and an all-stars team drawn from Super League’s overseas players.
He reckons the fixture – revealed by national boss Steve McNamara last Friday – would help the English better prepare for their tussles against Australia and New Zealand in the end-of-season Four Nations tournament.
“New Zealand and Australia play each other mid-season in the Anzac Test, and the Australian players are involved in the State of Origin series, and if this game helps England achieve a similar level of competition, then it can only be a good thing.”'"
