Who would you pick at lock for NSW in '12 SOO?

    It's not you. Personally I think he is massively underrated but fortunately not by the selectors.
     
  2. Julian BJ Taylor

    Stewart's not a lock though.
     
  3. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Egg-fucking-zactly.

    I don't hate Stewart nearly as much as I used to, and while I don't think his game would translate very well to Origin consistently, I reckon he's in the best five or so club level second rowers.

    However, he's a wide-running short option ball-player; he's not a lock. Neither his tight defence nor his tight running - or hell even his long passing/creative game if we want a ball-playing lock - are good enough. If Stewart is going to play, and I wouldn't cry if he did, he should be in competition with Bird, Scott, Watmough, Lewis, Creagh and Tariq Sims for one of the second row spots or the second row bench spot. He should be used exclusively on the edges.

    The more I think of it, the more I am convinced it has to be Fensom.

    All the other options (bar Tolman, because he should be picked as a prop or not at all) are better suited as second rowers.

    I'd have him as a second rower all day, he's won me over the past 2 seasons.

    I think Fensom fits the bill for lock, he's perfect for all the middle hard yards.

    It's you.
     
  7. Frizzed WC Welker

    Naturally.
     
  8. Benny BS Read

    I still can't stand Glenn Stewart.
     
  9. LukeTyson L Tyson

    Call Ben Kennedy back.
     
  10. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Kennedy was such a gun. Best Origin lock since Clyde and Lindner Imo.

    /Gemmell bait.

    It's true though.
     
  12. Frizzed WC Welker

    Best backrower to play rugby league ever.
     
  13. Benny BS Read

    Ben Kennedy was great.

    I miss the days of Kennedy, Fitzgibbon, Hindmarsh, Simpson etc. all in their prime in Origin
     
  14. LukeTyson L Tyson

    Wish Simpson wasn't so injury prone. Fuck I loved seeing that cunt rip shit up on the edges.
     
  15. Speirz DG Speirs

    His tackle on Andrew Ryan in the grand final is far and away my favourite memory.
     
  16. Frizzed WC Welker

    11. Simpson
    12. BK
    13. Billy Peden

    Sex.
     
  17. Benny BS Read

    Bryan Fletcher can get added to my list too WAFG!
     
  18. LukeTyson L Tyson

    Never thought much of Bryan Fletcher tbh.
     
  19. jazman84 JM Eightyfour

    Will probably be Watmough.

    I cant see them picking Tolman there, although he'd be gun.
     
  20. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    I would still like to know who Ews and the others are going to play at lock when Tolman comes off.
