AUSTRALIA: Backs: Billy Slater, Darius Boyd, Will Chambers, Dane Gagai, Tom Trbojevic, Josh Dugan, Valentine Holmes, Cooper Cronk, Cameron Munster, Michael Morgan, James Maloney.

Forwards: Aaron Woods, David Klemmer, Josh McGuire, Andrew Fifita, Jake Trobojevic, Jordan McLean, Boyd Cordner, Matt Gillett, Tyson Frizell, Wade Graham, Felise Kaufusi, Cameron Smith, Ben Hunt.

So, according to Mal; Cronk, Morgan and Maloney are better number 7s than Mythchell. Given the way the international game is played these days the half and 5/8 are pretty much interchangeable and he still didn't get a guernsey - so you would have to think Munster is ahead of him, and with Hunt there for his utility value then he probably rates higher in Mal's opinion as well. With Thurston in the mix too, that puts Piss at 7th. At best.

And you could make an argument for Cleary and/or DCE to be in the World Cup squad over Mythchell as well...

Albert is way ahead - he doesn't even have Mitch in the Rooster's "Big 4" these days

Word is Roosters are trying to offload Pearce but no clubs are intetested.

Geez.

Given he can get a team into the 8, the Cowboys should sign him. Pearce can play the 26 rounds and get the cows to the finals while the Cows keep Thurston in cotton wool. Then when they make the finals they can ditch Pearce and go in with a fresh Thurston.

Worse than Hunt? Retire now buddy.
