How can he be so daft to drop sam Myler not played as much as sam and does not perform as well (Ok little wigan bias).
Hes got rid of lockers and now our sam, hope he gets a bite in his wire blinkered backside, Numpty.

If i was Sam i would spit the dummy and do one, Smith is poop (was going to use a different word but didn't want to upset the PC brigade :eusa18:), the sooner we get rid and form some sort of panel made up of 4 or 5 ex top flight players/coaches to pick the inital squads the better, don't they do it that way in OZ or at least use to, am sure Johnny Raper used to be on such a panel.

Personally I wouldn’t read too much into this. We all know what Sam can do and I reckon by now, Tony Smith probably does too. What more will he learn from watching Sam in another easy game which England will win comfortably? (If England don’t win this one comfortably then the selection for the next 2 games is totally irrelevant!)

Maybe Smith wants to give Myler another chance to see if he is ready for the “real” games...

Maybe Smith has Sam pencilled in as his first choice 6 and is giving Maguire a chance to fight for his place…

Maybe Myler is the sacrificial lamb, and Smith wants to make sure that Sam is ready (fully fit) for the big games where it matters...

Let’s face it; if England can’t beat France without Sam then Smith is in BIG trouble

The same way Maurie Faasavalu qualifies for England.

Tony Smith is doing a great job for Wigan (sorry England).

Wrap Locker's & Sam in cotton wool ready for next season .

Peronaly i wouldn't like to see Sam take the p**s out of hairy a***d Aussie / Kiwi who then spend the rest of the match trying to kill him .
