For all his faults wilde has a utility value ( his only redeming feature). Tickle, Whilst our most consistant player by far, doesn't have that squad value.

tickle has a bit of utility as he can play loose and second row. i bet he could play somewhere like centre myself because of his size hes quie a big lad

Not sure about his size Just not quick enough for the centres.Could have got in for his kicking alone.Mind you they have Carney for that i suppose

Not standing up for wild as my post said.I can just see why he would be picked.Glad to see the back of him to be honest.But the point is utility.Wild can play loose,second row or centre, admittedly none of them well.But that is his value to the squad.Personally i would pick tickle in the squad along with calderwood over Raynor.

Why would you be glad to see the back of him? The only way you can judge any player this season is by their effort. We've had a very weak side and no-one has been able to play well as part of a team. I don't think you can say Wild hasn't put the effort in.

For all the talk when you look at this squad and the England squad you realise how few top quality British players we actually have. We are going to get blitzed this year and I would not be suprised if we did not reach the final.

Wild ,despite the fact he was given a chance to prove himself this season did not take it in my opinion.On more than a number of occassions he has looked uniterested.When he burst threw he looked the part.But much like simon haughton it just didn't work out for him.Only glad to see the back of him as it frees up a 20/20 spot with the new signings he would be a bench player at most

hmmmm it does. maybe we have better than wellens (apart form radz) whop can palay that postition better than wellens but havent been given the chance

Mathers.

He's been outstanding for Leeds this season...certainly better than Wellens. I wouldn't really argue against Price, just feel uncomfortable with playing players out of position at international level.
He was the best Leeds Player in the GF (not that that's saying much, I admit) - and that's not just my opinion:-
