[Misanthrope]

With that forward pack, I don't give the Indigenous team much of a chance at all.

 

[knights22]

All Stars by plenty.

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

All Stars with a leg in the air. The Indigenous pack is like wet paper.

 

[SuperiorEasts]

Damn with a terrible pack like that and Jake Friend still doesn't get picked. He's a tackling machine. I moved him to lock in RLL2 and he had great success there.

 

[Diesel]

All Stars but not as many as people think... Maybe by 20

 

[Vic Mackey]

Couldn't care less, will have to put a first try scorer bet on just to make it interesting. I'm guessing benji will play left and Reynolds right, meaning the backs on the right won't see any ball unless its from a kick. Jmoz FTS

 

[to_ddeath]

All Stars by 36.


T.

 

[Joker's Wild]

Slater out, O'Neil in

Likely mean that Hayne will go to fullback

 

[Timmah]

Dave Taylor omitted also, Ash Harrison his replacement. Gallen also in doubt.

Interesting.

 

[Joker's Wild]

Not surprising, happens every year re: players pulling out

 

[Fire]

Finally, some footy!

Even if Gal pulls out, NRL All-Stars, easily.

 

[Edward]

I went NRL All Stars because of their forward pack.

But, you never know in this game with withdrawals, player fitness, etc.

 

[hitman82]

Cronk out, Johnson in
