medwaywhite Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Well another season nearly over, just the World Cup in Australia to come ,anybody think we have a earthly chance of winning it. Quote
Traf Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Well another season nearly over, just the World Cup in Australia to come ,anybody think we have a earthly chance of winning it. I'll stick my neck out and say no. Quote
Leyther_Matt Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Can only assume Wayne Bennett has been on a bender with Zak Hardaker after some of those selection. Quote
medwaywhite Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Why near enough the same team that was selected to play Samoa in the friendly in aus ,you knew then with that selection ,most would be in the squad.if not why play them Quote
Leyther_Matt Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 It's the lack of surprise that's probably the worst thing. Quote
gonzo Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Has the mon from castleford been on the Harold Sniffmans? Quote
Escobarp Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Aye he’s been playing bingo. Silly boy as he lost the chance to go to the last world Cup for bad behaviour as well Huge loss to the team Why Sam Tomkins isn’t in I’ve no idea. Quote
Leyther_Matt Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 I think Jamie Shaul and Greg Eden have been much harder done to than Sam Tomkins. Quote
Salford Trotter Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Aye he’s been playing bingo. Silly boy as he lost the chance to go to the last world Cup for bad behaviour as well Huge loss to the team Why Sam Tomkins isn’t in I’ve no idea. How any Warrington players have got anywhere near that squad beggars belief. I mean what has Kevin Brown to deserve his inclusion??? Quote
Escobarp Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Greg Eden I completely agree with but not Jamie shaul IMO but his time will come. We will get horsed by the Aussies far too strong quick and skill full Quote
Escobarp Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 How any Warrington players have got anywhere near that squad beggars belief. I mean what has Kevin Brown to deserve his inclusion??? Completely agree re brown. A decent player but there’s much better than him in the English game Quote
Leyther_Matt Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Hill has to be in there as a pure leader of men (I'll accept a cheque Medway), I can see how Ratchford is in there as a utility player (albeit with massive drawbacks in whichever position he ends up) but I can only assume Bennett has picked Brown based on old YouTube videos, and even then I'd be amazed if the reel for his entire career was enough to justify a call up.

Big E Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Has the mon from castleford been on the Harold Sniffmans? Yeah. Mad how we are tolerant of steroids but not chan Quote
gonzo Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Yeah. Mad how we are tolerant of steroids but not chan Haha they sprinkle Dianabol on their cornflakes that lot Quote
Leyther_Matt Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Yeah. Mad how we are tolerant of steroids but not chanIn reality it's the complete opposite - the testing is so focused towards performance enhancing drugs that it seems players are nowhere near as worried when it comes to being caught with recreational drugs. Much the same in other sports when you think that pretty much any recreational case is more or less shrugged off and then compare it to the issues of steroids in athletics and cycling. The only difference is football is that the players will be taking stuff that won't be in the public consciousness for another 5 years yet. Quote

We will get horsed by the Aussies far too strong quick and skill full 18-4 defeat for England today, but 12-10 would have been a much fairer reflection of the play. And I think there were only 3 penalty decisions in the whole match. Quote

And I think there were only 3 penalty decisions in the whole match. I didn't know England were even playing, I'm guessing it's over in Australia, with it being an AM kick off time Quote

Underpants Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Getting a try deserves an open top bus ride around Batley. Knighthoods all round. Quote
Sweep Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Blimey, just heard on the radio, there's a world cup - I didn't even know RL did World Cups, I honestly didn't think there were enough countries playing it. I'm guessing that Australia or England win it pretty much every time Quote
