No, it's Johns that is overrated...

Yeah I know what you mean! Like at Origin time! People kept on going on about how well he played and how he had a hand in every try! Who cares? If he is going to be recognised he should make every single tackle and score every try himself. :roll:

Barrett is a great player and should be in there at 5/8 over Lockyer, so too should Anasta be. I think Thurston is more of a halfback who is sometimes played at 5/8.

I don't care if he was the last guy to pass, or one of his unintentional kicks bounces well for him...

I look at every of his plays by its merit...

Only 50% of them deserve the hype they get...

Everyone has been talking about Mason's selection, but why the hell did Barrett get picked ahead of Thurston??

Thurston: Dally M Medal winner
Grand Final Winner
Best player in GF the other night
OLD Origin halfback

Barrett: Pretty boy who has done sh*t all in the big games when the pressure is on, and injury prone.

Say no more.




I agree.
