Smith will draw equal with Churchill with 27 Tests as captain.

Lockyer 38 (03-10)
Churchill 27 (50-56)
Smith 26 (12-17)
Fittler 25 (95-01)
Lewis 24 (82-91)
Meninga 24 (90-94)
 
They shouldn't be allowed to call it an ANZAC test given the date.

Good on Smith though.

Did I miss something? When did McQueen become a Brittanican?
 
Late-night OCD has overcome me. Whoever designed that needs to get shot. I'm sure the deliberately staggered names (they're not quite aligned vertically) was an attempt at being edgy, but it just looks like someone didn't know how to set the Tabs in Word so just kept going space space space space space space space space (name) to get them roughly in the same spot. Clippy would be fucking pissed off that he wasn't consulted. And cardinal sin - using two weights of a font that are too close together. Look closely and the surnames are just sliiightly bolder than the first names. Rule of thumb is you need to go at least two weights up or down, ideally more, otherwise it just confuses the eye.

It looks like they aligned the club names and forgot to align the player names lol.

I just realised what they did. They've aligned the spaces between the first and last name (so all the first names are aligned to the right, last names aligned to the left). That can look good, but because the team names don't follow suit it ruins the effect, it looks like a mistake.
 
Font alignment aside, lets go back to ex-Origin player being named for the Poms?!?!?
 
Father might be English, still doesn't make it right. If he was still a good player, would we be cool with him being selected for Origin this year as well? I wouldn't.

No. I don't think he can play Origin and represent England even if he wanted to.
 
The moment he represents England he can never play Origin again.

Triple M posted a team saying it had been leaked but had Moylan instead of Morgan...

Edit I think they fucked it up

Does Mal actually think that Dugan and Ferguson are our best two right centres/wingers? Don't understand why they keep getting picked, it's not like they do much at this level either. Shannon Boyd either, there are a number of better options.
 
I don't understand Dugan's selection either, at least with Ferguson he had a fantastic Four Nations tour last year.
