    As in my response to Julian, I think he's very erratic. If he has a bad day, he could be costly.

    Oh I certainly think they can pick a front row to compete with Australia. I can't see them getting over the top of us but they can more than hold their own and cancel each other out. Matulino, Asotasi, Moi Moi, and etc. are all good metre-makers and all are experienced with Test footy.

    Hopefully they pick Kasiano and he takes up their offer, too.

    Just another top class prop to add to what you said, really. He's as good as Tamou and Shillington IMHO.

    I know who shouldn't be anywhere near the side - Thaiday.

    In all honesty, I want to see Barba picked on the bench as I want to see if it would work for Qld.

    My side would be:

    1. Slater
    2. Boyd
    3. Inglis
    4. Tate
    5. J Morris (there'll be swapping with Tate sometimes)
    6. Thurston
    7. Cronk
    8. Scott
    9. Smith
    10. Tamou
    11. Thaiday
    12. Stewart
    13. Gallen
    14. Barba
    15. Shillington
    16. Taylor
    17. Myles

    Gallen, Stewart, Tamou and Morris should consider themselves lucky.

    Don't see how Tamou should consider himself lucky. He's been superb this year. Gallen as well. Wtf are Stewart, Thaiday and Taylor doing there? Those cunts should consider themselves lucky afaic.

    Fui Fui has been left out of the squad already & Nathan Fien has retired from international footy.

    Kiwis train-on squad: Sam McKendry (Penrith Panthers), Shaun Kenny-Dowall, Jared Waerea-Hargreaves (Sydney Roosters), Ben Henry, Shaun Johnson, Simon Mannering, Alehana Mara, Ben Matulino, Elijah Taylor, Manu Vatuvei (New Zealand Warriors), Adam Blair, Benji Marshall (Wests Tigers).

    Lol, NZ selectors have always been absolutely retarded about how little they rate Moimoi. How they can put JWH and Adam Blair in the squad and leave him out with a straight face is beyond me.

    Blair fucking sucks anywhere but prop and even then he's maybe just an above average first grader. Seriously no idea why people rate him.

    Blair just sucks, IMO.

    Did Nightingale not make the train on squad??

    He withdrew to have knee surgery.

    Ah good. Should mean we have no players in the test match at all then. Unless they pick Borris on the wing.

    Gotta say, based on the way he's been playing I don't even see the need for Tate to shift to wing in attack. I'd rather have him there in attack than Hodges these days. Some of his hole running and setting up his outside man, this season, have been world class.

    Having gone to my first NRL match at Dairy Farmers on Saturday and absolutely loving it i've decided i'm going back to Townsville for this next month. Keen as a bean.
