    Mug. Tate is woeful under the high ball, and Hodges's defence isn't even FG standard. He's been repeatedly found out. Defending him, Lockyer and Thaiday together is nothing short of absurd. There's no reason to take a massive risk on the unproven Hodges when we have a proven Tate. You wouldn't be picking Hodges if he were playing for the Warriors and Tate were playing for the Broncos.

    Parker and Bolton are not bench players. They make good through big workload.

    Hodges and Tate would swap in defence so Hodges could handle the high ball and kick returns. And how does bias come into it when I have picked them both? And AFAIC, Hodges is proven at origin level. Parker could easily be a bench player, he could play prop if needed.

    Playing Hodges on the wing in defence is also a recipe for disaster. Last time I checked he's shit under the high ball as well. There's no reason for him to be in the team. We have more than enough points in us and would merely be unnecessarily weakening our defensive line.

    Picking both doesn't disprove bias. If you weren't biased, you wouldn't have picked him at all. You would've picked Tate, if he were playing for the Broncos, and left Hodges where he belongs - On the sidelines and in club footy.

    Based on what? He's played 12 Origins - The first 4 Origins he played were average at best and Sigsworth-esque at worst. He played one good game in 2006. Was solid in 2007. Was crap in Game 1, 2008. And did **** all in 09. How is he proven? In this time he's done some great things in attack, but he's also been utterly exposed in defence and has also cracked under pressure as well as displaying poor discipline at times.

    Bias.
