No....quite clearly this is yet another example of NSW hyperbole. Farah went alright

FFS.....in a team like NSW, he stands out.

.

Now this part I don't get. Who is his opposition? argubaly the best QLD team of all time, 13/17 players in the Australian team. Wasn't that who he was playing against?

Gee he did pretty dam well.

Farah was better than Smith across the whole series but not by enough to unseat the current Aust Captain. Silly to suggest otherwise

No reason to have Farah on the bench either as he doesn't cover many positions outside hooker or halfback, both of which are 80min players in the Aust side.

Sigh....didn't realise I'd have to spell it out in red crayon for you.

What Smith does, sometimes gets easily lost amongst the brilliance of Inglis, Thurston and Cronk.......

Farah stood out in the NSW team, because for the most part the NSW attacking focal point is grossly inept. I'll stop short of saying the 2012 NSW team is a team full of numpties

....but you do get my point.

It only takes a NSW player to make a slight impact in SOO for all you NSW groupies to start singing them as the new messiah,

just like how Mitchell Pearce was supposedly the best half back in the world after game 2 last year.......:roll:

Why not call the thread team of the series? That would make more sense.

Inglis did more in one game at fullback than Stewart did the entire series.

Lewis over the man of the series Myles? Surely you jest.

1. Slater
2. Boyd
3. Inglis
4. J Morris
5. Hayne
6. Thurston
7. Cronk
8. Hannant
9. Smith
10. Tamou
11. Lewis
12. Thaiday
13. Gallen

14. Parker
15. Williams
16. Shillington
17. Scott/Grant

I don't understand how Myles got man of the series, he was solid, but Inglis and Farrah were two players that were more influential than him.

Farah was the best hooker in the origin series and on a team picked purely from this series he would be selected but smith is the aus hooker and should keep the role for now. They are different players have different strengths and weaknesses but both great players Farah just happened to have the better series

You being the foremost expert I guess :roll:
After reading a few of your posts and seeing the dribble you put forth then yes I am an expert and identifying you as a fu##wit was both easy and obvious.

You would easily be the biggest fool on this site.

I love now NSW fans think Farah was amazing, I can only assume its their memory being clouded out of sympathy for the poor guy combined with his high tackle count in game 1.

In reality Smith, as always, outplayed him.

Australian side should just be the QLD side. They are clearly better players than the 7 teams NSW has put forward recently.

Funny thing is most think the same thing about you

Keep talking tough though mate, it almost does a good job of covering up just how much of a clueless numpty you are
