Sykes can kick. I'd rather have him than Senior or Gleeson
1 Wellens (No-brainer)
2 Gardner (On-form is a must, Penny is a talent but too inexperienced)
3 Wild (Great form, has the pace, Gleeson and Yeaman aren't playing well)
4 Senior (Good year for Leeds)
5 Raynor (Best winger in the comp)
6 McGuire (Good
7 Burrow Partnership)
8 Peacock (Grand final performance - nuff said)
9 Newton (Hate him but does a job - Good foil for Roby)
10 Morley (Doesn't deserve it but will be in)
11 Ellis (Best 2nd row in comp)
12 Wilkin (Another good season)
13 Pryce (Must play - has the size and the talent to play 13)
14 Roby (Man of steel - must come off the bench though)
15 Lynch (Solid all year)
16 Sinfield (Consistent)
17 Burgess (Best young prop in the comp this year)
I just get the feeling Pryce might get feature at Right Centre, Senior Left Centre and McGuire at Stand Off.

I totally agree, but McGuire is Smith's golden boy and he has been playing pretty well recently. Add to that our shortage of good Centre's and it may well be an option.Originally Posted by Cedarman

I'd personally go with:
Wellens
Gardner
Gleeson
Senior
Raynor
Pryce
Burrow
Peacock
Newton
Morley
Ellis
Wild
Sinfield
Roby
Graham
Burgess
Wilkin
We're a bit short of quality back rowers and the backline isn't the greatest (it's frightening hoe bad we are at Centre). We've got a very strong bench though with Roby, Graham and Burgess in good form. Something that may be worth a go would be putting Maurie/Morley on the bench and start with Burgess in the back row and Lynch starting the front row. He's done it for Bradford many times this year particularly against the bigger teams and that's what NZ are.
Has anyone got a list of the squad? I can't remember who's in and who isn't. Another option would be JJB (is he in the squad?) in the back row with Ellis and Sinfield, with Wild on the bench.

Hope they do mate. Happy to have a NZ and a GB team containing no redvee players. But I had not heard they had pulled out and that squad was only posted today.Originally Posted by Cedarman
How many bloody injuries have we got? It seems half our side were unfit for the Grand Final.Originally Posted by Cedarman
