The depressing reality is although the England squad looks pathetic it's hard to argue against, we only have Roby. When you go through our English players they really are not good enough. Makinson for me is the only one who could push for a place.
Wellens - past it even at Super League level
Shenton - been poor this season
Jones - progressing well but never an international yet
Wheeler - always injured
Lomax - isn't good enough at 7 for international yet
LMS - too inconsistant
Clough - average
Flanagan - good tackler but never international
Wilkin - couldn't we have used him as as a transfer fee for Taylor from Hull KR?
Dixon - average
Gaskell - average
