Westermans been sh-ite since playing for england - we dont want the same to happen to Watts

As a side note not one player from FC or KR in the squad - truly shocking tbh

Is it shocking that no Hull FC player made the squad? I would say that Watts making the squad would have been touch and go, a nice surprise if it had happened. Not sure anyone else was likely?

Not sure why you mentioned Hull KR.

Re: Liam Watts : Sun Oct 11, 2015 5:59 pm  

He has had a hard season and played a lot of minutes and some games single handled leading the pack so I for one aren't bothered that he isn't playing as it will benefit us next season.As for the squad,what did people expect with Mc banana in charge,it's obvious golden balls will play FB and hardacker either left out or shunted to centre and picking Matty Smith is the biggest joke going.

i totally agree watts is far better than westwood and he should be in squad. westwood is not even average.

Shocking as neither team has raised one not at the rfl or Mcnamara

Unfortunate for him. Not for us.
To be fair by all accounts and what I've seen Taylor could of been in as well.
All boys in training fresh from the off with no chance of being injured in the tests is good for us. Big season for us and we need everybody from the off

out of interest, who of the squad is he better than?

England squad: John Bateman, Joe Burgess, Liam Farrell, Sean O'Loughlin (c), Matty Smith, George Williams (Wigan), Thomas Burgess (South Sydney Rabbitohs), Mike Cooper, Gareth Widdop (St George Illawarra), Leroy Cudjoe, Brett Ferres, Jermaine McGillvary (Huddersfield Giants), Ben Currie, Chris Hill, Ben Westwood (Warrington Wolves), Luke Gale (Castleford Tigers), James Graham (Canterbury Bulldogs), Ryan Hall, Zak Hardaker, Kallum Watkins (Leeds Rhinos), Josh Hodgson (Canberra Raiders), James Roby (St Helens), Sam Tomkins (NZ Warriors), Elliott Whitehead (Catalans Dragons).

Squad seems unbalanced with only 4 props, I would have thought he would have selected at least 5 that's why I think Watts may have had a chance. Graham, Hill and Burgess are nailed on. Not seen Cooper play in the NRL so I can't comment. Out of interest how has he played this season? What are his strengths?

Re: Liam Watts : Sun Oct 11, 2015 9:07 pm  

Tom Burgess has been absolute gash for SS and Mike Cooper FFS! The absolute definition of average. Both players in because they play NRL.

Coopers been very good this year. Tom hasn't been gash at all.

Cooper or Watts. Having seen both this season who would you pick?
