The England squad has been announced, it does not contain a single Leeds player. When was the last time that happened?

I'm guessing if not for injuries we would have 2, probably 3 in there. A poor season and poor luck combined.

Other than Watkins I don’t know how. But how bad has this game really become, that a player as sh2t3 as Reece Lynn can get into an international squad. How embarrassing.

Ryan Hall would be in the starting England side without a doubt if he was fit

He isn’t a Leeds player anymore. Although I don’t think he should be ahead of the others anyway.

Irrespective of the actual cut off point of Ryan Hall's contract at Leeds (supposed to be in November?) do you not thing that he would have been an automatic starter for England v Kiwis if he had been fit?
Because I certainly do

If not who would "these other's" be as his replacement against the Kiwis if you picked the side?

Oh I do think he would be picked, I just don’t think he should be. Makinson is far better and more deserving of the pick.

Hall is still a top class winger, it will be like christmas every week for him next year playing in that Roosters team as opposed to what he has had here in recent times.
