Tim Moltzen...really?

 

[Timmah]

As noted, Dean Young was ruled out.

Surprised Gasnier didn't get a run though.

 

[Charles Bronson]

going for country because of soward

 

[Garts]

Don't care who wins in this meaningless game. Just hope no one is injured.

 

[Timmah]

CHANGE: Beau Scott OUT (now 18th man for Australia). Matt Prior (Dragons) joins the bench, Heighington to start at lock, with Stewart dropping into the second row.

Beau Scott 18th man for Australia?

Tim Sheens has lost his marbles.

Has a calf twinge... Ruled himself out

 

[Spot On]

Can't agree with you more. Pointless game that may cost a team one of it's important player through injury. No interest in who wins or loses.

 

[jonno_knights]

Suprised noone has questioned ADAM CUTHBERTSON? WTF. Cant even crack first grade.

 

[Tom155]

how does cutbertson get a run? he cant even make dragons side on a regular basis

 

[Patorick]

how does cutbertson get a run? he cant even make dragons side on a regular basis

Praying.

 

[Gaba]

can't see where city going to score points, they have no creativity in the halves , and lol @ fittler being the coach



Hopoate and hayne the only 2 look likely to put any points on for city

 

[beave]

Other than taking the game to country areas, I really think this game is a waste of time and places a high risk of injury on players for no reason.

 

[Godz Illa]

Expecting Cuthbo to explode off the bench and dismantle the Country defence, earning Kurt Gidley's bench NSW spot and the captaincy

 

[Timmah]

Country
OUT: Kade Snowden (Sharks), Beau Scott (Dragons) - Australian selection
IN: Dan Hunt (Dragons), Matt Prior (Dragons)

Chris Heighington moves into lock for Glenn Stewart, who moves to the second row for the missing Beau Scott. Prior comes onto the bench.

Dan Hunt becomes a direct replacement for Kade Snowden.

gameplans, Gaba. they will utilize gameplans.

 

[mxlegend99]

That country backline and halves looks awesome. Bring in Mark Gasnier for Joel Thompson and that's probably the strongest NSW 1-7 you could pick.
