well my english squad is probaly a lot different to others and a bit bristol biased as most ive talked to would start some that i choose
1-Andrew sheridan/matt stevens
2-Mark regan
3-Vickery/Stevens
chose it like this as i rate regan higher then chuter and i dont feel vickery has been performing well enough to start and would be nice to see a fit sheridan and stevens front row
4-Shaw
5-Palmer
Absolute awesome 2nd row partnership for wasps
6-Moody
7-Rees
8-DWS/haskel
if DWS is fit obviously just hope he can perform at international level if not haskel who has been superb for wasps
9-Perry
10-Wilkinson ©
wilkinson as experience is needed and when he finds his form will be a superb choice, perry as his passing and kicking game has been brilliant and i dont feel people should pass him up on a selection of last 5 minutes when england are 30 odd points down
12-Farrel
13-Tait
Farrel i just hope can perform other wise id pick flood, Tait isnt as weak as people seem to think and can use whatever space given to its full potential
11-Strettle
14-Simpson daniel
15-Morgan
Not the biggest back 3 but if all fit a talented back 3 if one is injured replace with lewsey or robinson
16-chuter
17-Crompton/stevens/vickery depending whos playing
18-Winters-superb for bristol this year
19-worsely or haskel depending on 8 spot
20-richards-spark that england could need in the 2nd half
21-flood-been a good player at newcastle filling in for wilko and been good at international level i reckon
22-Allen-would like to see him given another chance
Reserves:not to sure on front row as not really my place but id take a guess at lee mears, probaly vickery as i'd have a sheridan and stevens front row and kevin yates
2nd rows-borthwick or ben kay or alex brown, chris jones lost it with a speculative pass that set habana up quite nicely
backrow-lund, hazzel or forrester if fit
backs- Gommersal, lewsey, robinson or geraghty
people such as corry etc have been dropped as i know most of them give 100% every time at international level but i dont reckon corry and co cut it and besides most of this team could be contenders for the next world cup injury providing and yet have enough tallent to pose a real threat and with the experience to come in if needed.
robinson and lewsey not included in first 22 as i want to see the younger tallent given a chance
most will disagree with my choices but hence why its MY 30
