GB Bulldogs Announce Preliminary IC17 Squad

With the northern and central area providing so many national players now, and some Welsh and Scots, plus so many players spending time in Australia, it seems likely that the Bulldogs will field their best ever side at IC2017. I start to think they might push towards top 4.

But then I see that Ireland are still around their level or better and have many playing down under so they will be hard to dislodge. And the US is always very professional and have record numbers in Australia including some big blokes playing at a high level, so they will be better than ever.

Of course NZ have a lot of development going on as well, perhaps still a bit disappointing in terms of grassroots numbers playing week in and week out, but a strong elite level focus. And the PNG league should be stronger than ever.

Other than South Africa (not sure on their status), that leaves a very strong field at the top end. So what I'm really saying is it's looking like a great IC17 and harder to pick a winner than ever before. Did I miss any likely contenders?---
