Wire players in Four Nations Squad : Thu Apr 30, 2009 1:44 pm  

Who do you think will make it into the England squad at the end of the season?

I reckon Morley is a certainty, with Westwood, Carvell and Higham having decent prospects.

Outsiders? Well Chris Bridge and Lee Briers if they continue in this vein of form (not sure if playing for other countries in the past will prevent this). Also Chris Riley as England don't have a wealth of talent in the outside backs.

this bit your quite right-Morley is a certainty, with Westwood, Carvell and Higham having decent prospects.

The stuff after it is extremely funny Bridge and Riley for England LMFAO

Bridge for Ireland maybe.

Morley, Westwood, Carvell and Higham, anyone else would be a bit of a shock. Depending on the remaining few months of the season of course

i reckon bridge has had 2 awesome games at centre, not enough yet to say if he'll be in but if he continues in this form i don't see why not, he's done a lot more in his last 2 games than gleeson had done in a while

riley maybe too early but if he makes that number 1 jumper his own then one day for sure he will i think

I wonder if Hicks has any English relatives....

For England, Morley will be in the line up, with Westwood, Carvell (barring injury!!) and Higham in the squad.

Briers has retired from Test rugby for Wales now.

Harrison and Bridge will be in the Ireland team and Grix.

Can't see any of the Anderson brothers making the Kiwis team with their current side being World Champions.

Bridge for Ireland
And Harrison and Grix

Carvell, Higham and Westwood now that Mozz is out.

I'd personally class Westwood as a certainty. He forced his way ino the World Cup squad, and Smith keeps raving about him.

I think he has made a second row spot his own.
