With all of the players putting their clubs before their country this will be a walkover for the poms

not many putting clubs first, but plenty pulling out injured. Thats the joys of the modern game. Carry niggling injuries all year, then cant play in the off season because your club wants you to repair your body. Nothing wrong with that

also think sinfield is still suspended for his head butt

rob burrow is rank and should never play international football

heino shouldn't be there, this england team are picking the cream of the crop young players and hoping for them to grow into established stars

also, the esl will not be holding back young players from going to the nrl

they used to top them up and keep them in the game in the old dart, but after the success of players like the burgess 3 and graham, and mike cooper turning into a half decent prop, the english rl will now longer stand in the way of young players getting paid vacations

Can anyone really see anybody getting near the Kangaroos this year? NZ look like they've gone backwards and the Poms haven't been on Australia's level for some time now.

i think england can knock the kiwis off but wont get near australia

australia missing gallen, lewis, slater, tate, fifita, slater ect will still field a 20million dollar side and destroy this tournament

I'm not a fan of the Four Nations set-up (AUS NZ ENG & [insert nation here]).

I'd prefer to have it made up of developing League nations (Scotland, US, Russia, PNG) or maybe have 3, plus rotate one of the big 3 around so they get a chance to play against the big boys.

2 slaters! haha big night mate

1. Inglis 2.Wighton 3. Jennings 4.Croker 5. Hayne 6. Thurston 7. Cronk 8. Scott 9. Smith 10. Thaiday 11. Bird 12. Cordner 13. Merrin 14. Cherry-Evans 15. Parker 16. McGuire 17. Scott(Beau)

with Slater, Morris, Hodges, Tamau, Gallen etc out it really opens up a chance for some blokes to get a spot they would have never had a chance of getting over those other guys.

Although now there is the bulldogs/souths guys to be added.

Johnston could get a call up (if he is aussie)

Well the 4th team has to qualify to play the big 3. ANd all that is what the world cup is for. for the lower end teams to meet up against the big teams. If you had Aus playing Fiji, Samoa and Wales there would be no competition. And the Australians would send an under 20s team and still smash them

agreed, addy's idea was a bit crap

and they usually have a tournament before/during/after for a minow to qualify for the next 4 nations
