Go the Yak!!!!!! He's that good City and Country were fighting over him!

 

[KulaShaker]

John Morris scratched? Ouch!

Thank God Menzies and Harris have made it (both deserve their spots), maybe the selectors will actually take notice this time.

 

[Tupac Shakur]

Brad Drew does nothing but kick field goals. Thats all he does.

 

[Dragon Fanatic]

KITEY!!!!!!!!! GO YOU GOOD THING!

 

[I Bleed Green]

Drew is rubbish, even Canberra fans admit this. The sooner his contract expires, the sooner the Raiders will be a better team.

Grothe got absolutely rorted. El Masri should not be there at all.

Brad Drew leaves me scratching my head. Can't believe Cusack is starting in front of Davico - what the f***? Stevens shouldn't be starting in front of Skando - he's a hack.

The battles in the centres are going to be very interested, with one of Lewis, Gasnier or Cooper to get the nod for the blues. (Sorry Matt King, maybe in a few years).

 

[MEE]

Well done Sam Harris. You deserve it.

 

[Godz Illa]

Congrats to Kite and Riddell, rep rookies. Both have been playing brilliantly, and deserve the recognition.

The centres battle will be enthralling. Matt Gidley was exempt from this game, so he's already in the NSW jersey. Lewis, Coops, Gas and King are vying for the other spot.

 

[Razor]

Did Eric Grothe sleep with one of the selectors wives?

He's the best winger in Australia. Should have been in the Aussie side, and now couldn't even make this side.

 

[thuganomics]

Why isn't BK there? #-o

 

[skeepe]

Brad Drew? #-o

Are the City selectors having a laugh or what?

StGillaman, just because a player is older than most others doesn't mean he isn't good or doesn't deserve rep selection... Andrew Johns will be 30 this month. Would you exclude him from rep teams because he's getting on? Don't think so.

 

[Raider_69]

How Drew is there is beyond me
im one of his biggest fans but on the way home i was calling for his head
The other raiders reps are well deserved

 

[Deano]

Stevens has been on a roll lately, around 10 metres a hit-up the past couple of weeks. Thuga are you referring to Ben Kennedy?
