Nice to see Briscoe and Yeamo in there but what has Danny Houghton got to do to get a call up? Henderson and Mcllorum? Really!!?? www.internationalrugbyleague.net/apps/blog/ full squad

Agree about Houghton.

Very surprised Atkins isn't in either squad, best SL centre at the moment IMO.

zak hardaker...oh please........... how atkins isnt in is beyond me....... as for henderson, another farce from the rfl

Decent player, but Peter Crouch syndrome. If he played for Wakey, he wouldn't get a sniff.

Henderson was born in England too.

McIlorum has had a truly fantastic start to the season, arguably our best player so far. Definitely deserves a call up.

Still no idea how Bailey gets in though.

Roby and Henderson are by far the top 2 English hookers. McIlorum by all acounts has been awesome for Wigan this year so it must have been a close call between him and Houghton.

As said this biggest surprise is no Atkins. Great to see Mossop in there, always impressed with him.

A quick look my team would be

Tomkins
Briscoe
Watkins
Cudjoe
Hall
Chase
Brough
Peacock
Roby
Crabtree
Westwood
Hock
Sinfield

Henderson
Mossop
Carvell
JJB

No Westerman in the Knights squad either.

THE MOST FEARED WATER CARRIER IN SUPER LEAGUE

Due to injury possibly ?

How come the pundits keep harping on about Pryce is the first Englishman to pay for Cats?

He's out injured for the next 3 months, kinda makes it hard for him to play.





Atkins deserves to be in the Elite squad. He had a poor 4 Nations a couple of seasons back, but that shouldn't take him out of the reckoning - he's been fantastic for Warrington over the past year.

Tough for Houghton to miss out, but he has strong competition in Roby, Henderson and McIllorum. If he cracks on though and keeps putting in great performances then there's nothing to stop him securing himself a place in the Elite squad for the October matches or next season.

Briscoe and Yeaman both deserve to keep their spots in the Elite.

Hardaker has talent, no doubt, but should be in the Knights squad rather than the Elite. I would have had Ratchford in the Elite squad in his place. Able to play anywhere across the backs to a good standard and would be my choice to play FB if Tomkins ever gets injured.

Henderson was born in England but has played for Scotland in the past. His parents are Scottish. He moved to Australia when he was a kid/in his teens, too.
