Yeah no surprises of those who have made it and I think we should point out that this is the train-on squad only.

It's a shame to see that Priddis has been left out again. He made the blues when he was with the Broncos but since then has been looked over. I can't work out why considering he is our BEST player during the big games and Final series. I was wondering if it was because of his moments of slackness of discipline around the ruck area may have something to do with it, like they continously overlook Presto because of his defence deficiencies.

Good point PK... been fixed.

Priddo - I think he's not too far off Buderus. But there's also Smith too. Wing I think is more a utility player.

Only Rooney and Gower were Picked for Aust :?

I knew lewis wouldnt of been, he ruled himself out about 3 weeks ago i believe

but cant believe clinton and waterhouse missed out.

Toni Carroll got in, in front of Trent and Joel. Un f**ken-believable. Sorry about the swearing but I do honestly find it un-f**ken-believable.

Australia and NZ may as well combine and call themselves Australiasia or something because in a few years time, half of the australian team will be kiwis, fijians ect

Frank Pritchard must still be injured because they are mad to leave him out of the team.

 

[Big Mick]

Frank Pritchard isn't good enough just yet i don't think.

 

[Tupac Shakur]

I think he is.

 

[Big Mick]

He may be good enough, but he isn't as good to fit into NZ's top team.

 

[Tupac Shakur]

I believe he is. Off the bench, definately.
