Morley out, Lockers?

[TonyH]

With Morley out of four nations I can't really see any more experienced captains in the side, would Lockers be the obvious choice? Also wonder who they will draft in to replace Morley? Coley!?

Lockers would be favourite, I'd have thought. As to a replacement, I'd go for Andy Lynch I think.

Ellis has to be captain and Carvel brought in!!!

[cpwigan]

I would think Ellis will get the nod but Lockers will play the full 80. Carvell, no way Jose. England kept turning possession over and nobody is worse for that than Carvell.

[warrior1973]

Do we really need another prop to replace Morley? Gleeson in the centers may be a better option.

[AdamMac]

It's a no brainer really, lockers all day for me but McClown will make Ellis captain.

[TonyH]

Lockers stood in as skipper on Sat when Morley went off, Carvell is on his way over right now as Morleys replacement, you'd like to think Stu and Graham will be the starting props? Or maybe even Burgess upto prop bringing Joel into the starting 13

[cpwigan]

I think Mac will keep Burgess in the back row but as you say it does strengthen Fielden's case. I think he might start with Graham and I presume Crabtree and Westwood will come from the bench with a hooker and possibly Joel.

How can that scouse whinge bag Graham be captain of England, Never in a million years should this have happened, what a joke, we will be a bunch of "whinging poms" with him as our captain.

[Fernando Player]

He's passed over some experienced captains, including the man who captained the Grand Final winners, to give it to Graham? I honestly think he's lost the plot this time...

I suppose the only upside is that, when Graham screams at the ref like he did in the GF, it's not an automatic sin bin...
