    Hurrell playing both centre positions because they had to stitch 2 shirts together to fit him?
    Forwards win games. The backs decide by how much.

    Quality - I’d love to see that team play. D’Campo would be a revelation on the wing.

    The exiles were due to announce their team today and have not.
    Some clubs were refusing to release players for it and I can only presume there’s still a stalemate.

    Interested to see how Lomax goes with an organising 7. Assuming it will be Gale and Lomax in the halves.

    Rubbish. Why are we playing a scrum half at hooker. Holding is never a no 9.

    If you add David Willey to the England team then the commentary team could come up with a few gaffes!
    The hooker’s Holding the loose forward’s Willey

    1. Jake Connor
    2. Ken Sio
    3. Peter Mata’utia
    4. Ricky Leutele
    5. Jermaine McGilvary
    6. Jackson Hastings
    7. Aidan Sezer
    8. Matt Prior
    9. Nathan Peats
    10. Chris Satae
    11. Kenny Edwards
    12. Kelepi Tanginoa
    13. Luke Yates
    14. Kruise Leeming
    15. Pauli Pauli
    16. Suaia Matagi
    17. Andre Savelio
    18. Junior Moors
    19. Liam Kay

    Across both squads player contributions are:
    Warrington, Huddersfield, Leeds = 5
    Saints, Wakefield = 4
    Castleford, Wigan, Hull = 3
    Salford, Catalans = 2
    Leigh, Featherstone = 1
    HKR = 0

    Interesting Huddersfield have ended up with joint almost after Watson whinging about not being able to field a team if they got too many call ups. Wonder if that’s Ken Davy going over his head.
    Forwards win games. The backs decide by how much.

    I was expecting Prince Harry to be named Captain because of his brief and forgettable connection with the sport, he will be back in the country and he is certainly classed as an exile these days

    Not a single Exiles player does seem odd. Maybe we have said no. Grace would be very near the top of non-English players for me but I wouldn’t particularly to risk him.

    Utterly baffling this. McGilvary is an England international, Hastings wants to play for England at the World Cup, etc, and they are Exiles? Let's rename this as England vs. 13 lads we could find to play

    We said that our players are carrying injuries. Glad we’re not part of this farce.

    So Salford v Leeds is rearranged on 2 days notice to Sunday despite having tickets sold for weeks. The whole thing is farcical.

    I thought I read it originally that teams could only call their game off if 6 players are more was selected for this international.? Sorry farce. But it is Leeds,they seem to play whenever they want.

    Delighted we are no part of this. Just a shame we couldn’t refuse to release players for England too.
