Maguire and Carvell added to England squad to face Australia

Steve McNamarra has named an unchanged 17 but has added Danny Maguire and Gareth Carvell making the it a 19 man squad to face Australia on saturday .

Hope they both make the team . Carvell especially as we could use his strength in the pack or off the bench .

Both are very capable of making a impact from the bench. Carvell is very strong and Maguire with his pace could be deadly against a tiring Aussie defence.

Who drops out ? Wilkin ?

I would assume that either Wilkin or Jones-Buchanon would miss out in place of Carvell. Can't see McGuire making the squad as we already have Chase, Widdop and Sinfield to cover the half backs so not much need for him.

Having Carvell on the bench would be a better option as we could rotate our props and keep them fresh throughout the game.

Feel that where we'll lose the game is down the flanks as don't think Briscoe will be able to cope against the aussie's. Bet he receives most of the kicks in the game tomorrow.

Yeh i think they will target him and Tomkins , i can see Tomkins getting a real working over .

If they target Tomkins with kicks and they dont get in right Tomkins will run them ragged.

I hope so , just think he will be the one they try and rough up .
