i believe (and hope) that if ben keeps goin the way he is and carries on playing the way he is doing then maybe in 2 or 3 years he may well be the next GB number1 jersey filler!

Seems that your coach rates our full back, more highly than his own in his column in the HDM. Unless there is a mass amount of serious injuries picked up by five or six SL full backs I wouldn't expect to see Cockayne in a GB shirt anytime soon.

I am sticking with what I said. A year nearly up 2 to go Ben will adapt.

Matt Blaymire will probably never play for GB yet he is better than Cockayne in every facet of the game. Not a chance old luv not a chance.

Yeah he is, he spent 20 mins kicking a ball to my grandson and then autographed his boots and patted his head. The sort of impression that will stay with him for years. He is still grinning.

As soon as Ben learns to catch and tackle, he may have a very slight chance of international honours

Doubt it TBH.
