Good to see Cooke there and also Karl Pryce. I haven't seen Pryce play for a few weeks but he was looking pretty good earlier in the season. He's just so freakin huge but has pretty good ball skills too. I reckon he'd be a good addition to the GB side. Hodgson has also been good thid year and even though he was rubbish last time he played for GB that was a few years ago.

Unfortunately GB always pick a squad of about 40 and yet when it comes to the actual 17 chosen to play it's te usual tried and failed suspects. I really think Cooke deserves a shot. Strange he hasn't to date.

Thought it was just the Salford pair added, this means GB has a train-on squad of about 43 players now. Hope that the game v NZ gave them a look at some potentially different combinations to send down under this time.

This must mean that every SL player who is eligible to play for G.B. is now in the train on squad . It's a joke selecting this many players . It can't have been chosen on form or Cooke would have been in the original selection .

Unfortunately, that is all there is to say about GB.
