    The anzac test is only two or so weeks ago so I think that this is about the right time for this thread. thoughts on teams?

    I believe it is to go ;)

    I reckon - Hayne, Lewis, possibly Jennings, Creagh. I think that this time if they decide that Lewis will be 18th man they can piss off and he can go play city vs country.

    Presuming Price wasn't picked, I'd run with:
    1. Slater
    2. Folau
    3. Tate
    4. Tonga
    5. Inglis
    6. Lockyer
    7. Thurston
    8. Civonaceva
    9. Smith
    10. Hannant
    11. Hindmarsh
    12. Harrison
    13. Myles
    14. Lewis
    15. Watmough
    16. Tolman
    17. Gallen

    I'm gonna get calls of bias but this is what I honestly think. NSW are lucky to get 5 in there. Hayne can't nail down fullback and the other wingers are better on the wing than him.

    im just assuming everyone i name is going to be fit

    Slater
    Hayne
    Tate
    Inglis
    Folau
    Lockyer
    Thurston
    Civoniceva
    Smith
    Price
    Hindmarsh
    Harrison
    Myles

    Lewis
    Hannant
    Gallen
    Poore

    thats just off the top of my head, probably could come up with a better side if i gave it more thought.

    Tate and Tonga should play but I think Tate will miss out and Inglis will move to centres with Hayne on the win. I also think Harrison will miss out unfortunately.
     
  6. Sizzler WD Robinson

    i think i like your team more then mine actually.
     
  7. Sultan Pepper HG Emm

    No way Poore or Pricey make it.
     
  8. Ged GEC King

    If the Australian selectors care one iota about Origin, Ash Harrison will be one of the first picked. You just can't beat him on the left of the ruck between Inglis and thurston.
     
  9. Andato BJT Manera

    They snubbed him for the four nations so I don't know if they will pick him. He should be starting for all I care or at least be on the bench.
     
  10. Sizzler WD Robinson

    i have a feeling one of the Morris brothers will make the team and they will leave out Hindmarsh, just seems like a Aus selector thing to do.
     
  11. Andato BJT Manera

    I think Hindmarsh stepped down from rep footy anyways.
     
  12. Hughesy JM Hughes

    Don't need him. Keep developing some of the other players.
     
  13. Andato BJT Manera

  14. Sizzler WD Robinson

    Slater
    Hayne
    Inglis
    Jennings
    Folau
    Lockyer (c)
    Thurston
    Civoniceva
    Smith
    Hannant
    Hindmarsh
    Watmough
    Gallen

    Lewis
    Thaiday
    Poore
    Weyman

    this is the kind of team i expect the Aus Selectors to go with

    what is upsetting is while that is the wrong team it is still good enough to win.

    Bias, Ged has it.
     
  16. Toolman TR Man

    I think it's pretty much 100% Hayne will be on the wing.
     
  17. Ged GEC King

    Please go on.
     
  18. Old Mate M Perry

    Ash Harrison isn't from NSW so you're being biased and stupid. He is one of the worst forwards ever.
     
  19. Julian BJ Taylor

    1. Billy Slater
    2. Jarryd Hayne
    3. Greg Inglis
    4. Willie Tonga (won't happen though)
    5. Brett Morris/Israel Folau (if he's back)
    6. Darren Lockyer
    7. Johnathon Thurston
    8. Ben Hannant
    9. Cameron Smith
    10. Petero Civoneciva
    11. Sam Thaiday
    12. Nate Myles
    13. Paul Gallen

    14. Michael Weyman
    15. David Shillington
    16. Anthony Watmough
    17. Cooper Cronk

    Would have the likes of Ash Harrison but I can't see it happening.
     
  20. Sultan Pepper HG Emm

    Farah will be on the bench.
