I simply cannot believe Sam Thaiday can't get a run. Ricky barely gave him a chance to prove himself last game and now he has been snubbed for Tupou! Another bad move.

 

[ByRd]

Whats the go with Thaiday??? What does he have to do to get a run in this side, he plays and only come son for 10 mins before his off again, Stuart is fked. Tupou, pathetic, a good player and i guess will be heading to Sharks pretty soon ay, pfttt Stuart, worst coach ever.

Cannot believe that Kaufusi will play. Why don't they give Hayne a run if they're going to name Kaufusi ffs. And Tate ahead of King? Bollocks that decision is.

Good to see the halves back to normal, and you still gotta love that backline even if King didn't get a run.

 

[The Colonel]

King is apparently out with a thigh/calf injury.

Disappointed that Hayne hasn't been given a run......

Disappointed that Thaiday hasn't got a proper run, but that said, Kaufusi's place in the team is more warranted than Tupou's given the way Kaufusi's performances in the finals led to his team doing somewhat well.

It should read Tupou out and Thaiday in. I would have liked Hayne to get a go as well.

 

[Stewie Griffin]

What does Thaiday have to do to get a run in the squad? Run errands for Ricki?? Some personal errands?? eh??

Start thinking and put Bellamy in charge Ricki!! You have no clue!!

 

[skeepe]

Ricky obviously doesn't want to face NZ in the final. Hindmarsh, Tupou and Kaufusi are not test standard.

 

[nqboy]

Concur with the Thaiday/Tupou feeling above. Is Tupou Tricky's special friend or something?

OART, the bias shown by Stuart is no different to that shown before him by Fulton, Anderson and, most disappointingly, Bennett.

 

[Pierced Soul]

poor berro, guess he misses his brothers wedding for this match...

 

[lockyno1]

At least dud Lyon is gone. I can accept Thaiday not playing as long as Lyon isn't at the same time! Can't expect Ricky to make 2 good decisions!

 

[Sanchez]

hornby in for berrigan?

 

[DownUnder]

Barry has apprently told Shaun to play in the test.

 

[lockyno1]

hornby in for berrigan?

Heck no, hornby as good as he is at club level was shown how ordinary he is at test level in the last match. No thanks.

 

[Sanchez]

who else would play backup hooker?

 

[Herbie]

Ricky Stuart, you are a goose.....

O'Meley should be in the starting line-up. Kite should be on the bench.

Tupou is useless, i would rather see Thaiday get a better chance with more game time........

 

[ledzep]

who else would play backup hooker?

we don't need a back-up hooker

 

[Herbie]

One more thing,

I would have also given Hayne a run on the wing before putting Tate in that position.

I agree, no need for a backup hooker.

 

[Sanchez]

what would happen if there was an injury
