18th Man to be named tomorrow
Captain to be decided by coaching staff tomorrow
Team to travel tomorrow to Maitland, then train before preparing for match on Friday Night.
Coach: Brett Cook (Wentworthville)
Assistant Coach: Nathan Waters (Wentworthville)
Speaking to me tonight, Coach Cook tells me that this is the best available side picked given injuries, callups to ISP and even the fact the match is being played on a Friday Night stopping others from making themselves available due to work commitments.
Team have only had 1 training session this week since being picked - another one scheduled for tomorrow
It is odd that it is a Friday Night given the whole competition was given a weekend off for this match.
A NSW Rep team will be picked from this match to play Qld Rangers at Pizzey Park, Sunshine Coast on June 17.
