Why weaken one position (fullback) to move GI to 5/8 which isn't even his best position?

Would it really be weakening the position though? GI has been pretty poor at fullback (especially by his standards) and I think Moylan could atleast match what he has offered so far.

Before the Four Nations there was talk of Inglis wanting to make the jersey his own. Most people believing he should have forced Slater out a while ago. But if anything it has proven Slater was deserving of keeping his jersey as long as he has.

Inglis is the best player in the world when he wants to be. But he seems happy being lazy for large portions of matches knowing he is still one of the best even when he doesn't try.

No way he is moved to the halves though. Sheens cant possibly be that stupid. Hunt has earned it. Inglis is a fullback or centre. The choice should be between Walker and Moylan, then putting GI in the position that is weakest. Hard to say without Moylan having played yet though. Its too big a risk to debut him now. Should have been picked in game 1 when Inglis was sick. But a 50% Inglis still got picked in the jersey he wanted, so cant see him being moved now. Hunt should be in the halves possibly even ahead of DCE based on his half hour effort. But if DCE is out, its a no brainer.

Sheens treating Samoa with the upmost respect :roll:

If we get rolled I won't be shedding many tears.

If Samoa win it had better be by a big enough margin the make the final. That would be epic for the game. Just need a few of these Sheenius rumours to be true. GI in the halves, hunt dropped, Farah on the bench with no front rowers. Definitely a team that can be beaten.

Around the stadium so many samoan jerseys and flags. Inside now and the hill is packed. All stands prob half full. Not the doom and gloom most suspected.

Starting side as named. Hunt beats Farah for a bench spot.

Moylan and Johnston the only to players not to get a game. Pretty unlucky to not be a chance against Samoa, doubt they will get an opportunity like this again. Sheens must take Samoa seriously to not use the leftover guys.

only channel 9 would run an interview with the Australian captain talking about how much of a hassle playing international footy is as the lead in for a f**king international
