Yep. Looks that way.
Shame because I would have like to see what he could have done v the kiwis.
It’s a nice experience for him, let’s hope he puts in another cracking performance like yesterday.

I personally, don’t think Holmes had done enough to warrant a place in the England side in the first place. But as a Cas fan, naturally, I was happy that one of our lads is getting a chance on the big stage. Bennett stated, that if ‘fringe’ players, play well, then they would have a great chance at making the squad for the NZ series.

Now for me, if a player is voted the man of the match, or players player, whatever the award was Oli got, then surely that says that he was the stand out player and warrants a place in the squad?

just like the rest of the recent GB coaches its horses for courses, form players should always be picked above players with reputations

As good as Holmes played hes not going to get picked over Whitehead or Bateman

Greenwood will play left second row because he's the only one Bennett will have seen in the flesh in oz. He failed but that didn't stop him picking Mike Cooper.

I'd say Greenwood is the next best option after Whitehead and Bateman based on this years form.

Adam Milner makes the 19 for this weekends game.
Let’s hope he gets on the field.

I would never be so brave as to second guess Wayne Bennett but looking at the 19, I can't see who else could play loose and would predict Myler and Percival to miss out.

Is Connor injured? He'd be one of the starting half backs for me if Percival is in the centre. Drop Tomkins, he's no where near an international half-back (or even Super League come that).

The way he’s talking in the interview it’s sounds like he’s playing.
The interview I saw is on Instagram.
