Would NSW pick him anyway and would he be welcome in the team? IIRC he was picked in 2008 and pulled out because the rest of the team didn't think he deserved to be there.

Methinks Lyon is being a bit too much of a pratt! I mean FFS playing Origin and Tests is playing at the highest level. Why would someone want to deny themselves that chance?

I don't know if the side thought he was deserving or not, but that wasn't the reason he pulled out

The main reason he didn't want to play is that his little fella did himself a reasonably serious injury and he didn't want to spend so long away from him in camp
