    Default GB Team - O'Loughlin

    Being reported that O'Loughlin will miss the GB Tour this winter after agreement with Bennett.

    My question is would anybody say he is still worth a place?? Surely he's not!

    Great player but this season caught up with him and didn't have the same influence he once did

    I don’t think he’s worth a place as a water boy these days. The article I read stated that he hopes the prospect of a full off season will improve his chances of securing a new Wigan contract. Here’s hoping.

    His performances this season don't warrant anywhere like enough to get a place on merit, and he was a shadow of 'peak Shirley Temple' when we stuffed them in the playoffs.

    I think this season was a step too far for his body - and he's going again in 2020 (good!)

    THANK GOD!

    I was fully expecting him to get picked despite his awful performances recently.
    Hopefully he signs a new Wigan contract though.

    There was no way he could play, he’s looked past it all season. I remember Good Friday when he threw a wild back handed pass to nobody on our line. Looked like an old man playing tag rugby. Get him on the coaching staff next year where he’d be a great asset

    Shouldn’t be in the Wigan 13 let alone the national one. Smithies looks a far better player and will be helped out by the fact Hastings will offer far more nous than Williams next season.

    I'd rather have Paul Loughlin playing than that clown.

    World class in his day, apart from the headhunting of course. However, those days a re long behind him now. Shouldn't be anywhere near an England or GB shirt.

    One of the finest players of his generation in SL, but one step behind in the class bracket than Sculthorpe or Farrell.

    Indeed. Bar the headshots.

    I've never really rated him to be honest. Good pass on him but an out & out cheap shot. That one on the Wakefield player a few seasons ago was disgusting

    Nah, me either, thinks he's better than he is/was who constantly got away with taking players out for years. I hope he does play on next year and gets his head took off after he can't get out of the way with his glass knees.

    No way should he be in the GB squad, though I hope he does get a new Wigan contract. Him and Wigan deserve each other.

    Should never of been in contention in the first place. Was a good player in his day but time has caught up with him. He should of just said he's retiring from international rugby at the end of the 2018 season.

    Oh for christ sake, he's not allegedly done anything, I made a daft analogy and you overreacted, now I'm having to explain myself. Some people shouldn't be allowed on the internet.

    Bennett might have told him there was no place for him. He should not be anywhere near a GB team.
