[Bman26]

T has it right, Bellamy got angry that Lawrence and Turner weren't in the city/country teams so you would have to assume they are very much in contention for spots.

:lol:

Upset because some people want Gidley over Stewart?

Cry on little bitch.

 

[lotti]

wel thats dum

there's a reason why Hunt's playing for Australia and not New Zealand, he wants to play Origin and players that play for New Zealand can't play Origin I would've loved to see Matthew Ridge in an Origin Jersey(possibily NSW) but because he played for New Zealand in the tests he couldn't play Origin.

 

[lotti]

not really as he's not from nsw!

Origin isn't about where you're from it's about where you first played senior game which is why some players that were born in NSW play for QLD that's where they played their first senior game.

 

[Buckshot]

the team i'd like to see play is:

1. Stewart
2. Quinn
3. Gasnier
4. Ben Harris (great player, he's a gun)
5. Monaghan
6. Anasta
7. Wallace
8. Mason
9. Buderus
10. Cross
11. Gallen
12. Hoffman
13. Bird

14. Gidley
15. Tupou
16. White
17. Laffranchi (for now, maybe origin 2 bring him into starting side, depending on halves. could move Bird to 5/8 for 2nd match if need be)

 

[lotti]

hopefully Orford will show Wallace up on Sunday and be selected. If Anasta is the 5/8th then Finch will probably be selected at half back so NSW can hopefully rely on the combo they had at the Roosters. NSW has already got a good start for this year's series they have Bellamy as coach and NSW is in serious need of Bellamy magic and if the NSW selectors which I think Bellamy is one select the team on form not on past performance(although why they selected Noddy last year I'll never understand since he did throw that intercept pass) in the Blues jersey the series is ours.

I hope you aint being serious, that was an absolutely shocking combination. Those where the days when Anasta was the mot over rated player and Finch was biggest sook. On top of this Anasta played lock every second week and Finch couldnt even hold his spot at 7 either.
