| Just wondering what people thought. Stick with the England squad, or go back to the old GB squad?

| If we want a serious and respected international game then it has to be England.
If we want to have a 3 way competition for our international game and throw PNG in there when they get an NRL team then we should go with GB.
It has to be England but I would prefer GB.
We should tour as GB though. No harm in that.

I would love to see GB do a tour of Aus, NZ and PNG. That would be class.
I would also love the NRL to start their season a few weeks later and fit in a tour in over here. 3 game series against England with games against a few of the top clubs and inlcluding a game against the Exiles that would be huge!

| We wouldn't have had the Danny Brough and soon to be Rhys/Ben Evans farce if we have the GB option.
To be honest though looking at it, England Squad= GB Squad at the moment.

The squad is not the issue. We all know the current England team is the GB team really. It is about the identity of the international game, we don't seem do have one. NRL and super league singing off the same song sheet would be a decent start IMO.

| I don't think its as much the name we go by it's what wearing the shirt means thats important. Playing representative rugby for england in rugby league seems to me not to be as important as playing for your country in any other sport. There needs to be an establish home for the national team and I know building a purpose built ground isn't going to happen anytime soon but there should be a stadium that can be identified as the home of England/GB RL.

Tough one, if England did become GB he surely would have to be at least asked as he is the best winger who could possibly qualify for GB. What do you think?

Hasn't Richards already stated that he wouldn't play for Great Britain as he sees himself as Irish-Australian and not British?

| England with GB tours every three or four years. We can learn something from union for a change.
