Australian Team?

[Scubby]

hey...make no mistake about we're about to see the soft underbelly of australian RL..for years you lot have banged on about how you lot could put out a NSWcup team and still win everything...

well lets see what your 'B' has got!! cos ive waited years for this..

We're going to be in trouble if England don't show up mate. We've got nowhere to hide if that happens.

I was going nuts listening to the BSB this morning. Jimmy Smith kept banging on that there should be no 4Ns this year because after such a successful RLWC last year the players deserve a rest.

They had an fn rest the year before the RLWC. FMD.

I would have actually backed England to beat the team Australia are going to field if they had S.Burgess, still a very good chance without him.

Given how depleted we're gonna be, theyre still a chance to beat us, but not sure about their outside backs. Although Tomkins and Ryan Hall could give us a scare.

The thing is. IF we get the job done with a team that's clearly for the future where that leave NZ and Eng?

New Zealands team is for the future as well.

 

[roughyedspud]

what if they don't??


what if they get humiliated at home??


massive pressure on these kids...can they hack it???

 

[roughyedspud]

the england team is fairly young too...most if not all will be around till the 2017 world cup

Pretty sure they can - you're still talking about a team with a lot players who've handled what is probably greater pressure in GFs and Origin. Look at the spine too - we still have Cam Smith, Cooper Cronk, DCE/Pearce (career best form and Premiership winner) and Inglis. Then we still have the Jennings, Stewart and Hayne for our other outside backs...

Forwards will be interesting now that Tamou and Scott are also out, but the side will still have a lot of strike power.

 

[franklin2323]

Of course but you guys have nothing to lose picking kids

who's been dropped for these kids to come in? Say we lose then we just bring the proven guys back next time. We have no pressure we aren't the team that hopes to become number 1. we are already there.

I dont think it matters who we pick in the forwards,i can't remember our forwards ever being the reason we win games,usually our backline just outclasses the opposition

Put Chris Sandow in the forwards and it wouldn't matter as long as you have the Inglis's and Hayne's floating around

Bit hard for Inglis and Hayne to score from their own try line each time when your side gets stuck in their own half because the forwards are gaining no metres...

It has been done but is not ideal.
