I wouldn't argue with the vast majority of that list, but......................

Is Billy Slater's side-kick the best we can come up with at full-back?  Angry

PS - I'll be at Leigh though, whoever he picks!

How Widdop's got in is scandalous. Just got in for the fact he plays for Melbourne.

Interesting that McNamara's only picked one Bradford player too, having depleted the teams of Leeds, Wigan and Saints for their respective games that weekend...

Eastmond is hugely wasted at full back IMHO.

Why would he do that? You are talking spangles lad!
Widdop will play FB and the 3 halves strangely enough will play at HALF BACK!

How can you play 3 half backs in 2 half back roles? Plus lets say Widdop gets injuryed in training leading up to the game, who out of the other 18 would you play?

Then your having 2 halfs back playing and one on the bench so your still only playing 2 half backs

Oh dear.

He's not bringing Widdop on a 12,000 holiday to not play is he?!
'Cheers for coming mate, but we're just gonna play our scrum half at full back'

IMO he will give each half back pairing 20 mins.  Does that make sense AB, take a few mins to divulge the info before you reply  Grin

But who has decided eastmond can play FB?!
There's a few guys on the list who id imagine are way ahead of nullifying one of our best creative players by playing him FB!
Briscoe or Hall could play FB while Shenton could drop onto the wing.
I hope you never go into coaching  Cheesy
