[Penelope Pittstop]

AUSTRALIA: Darren Lockyer (c), Robbie Kearns (vc), Matt Sing, Anthony Minichiello, Luke Lewis, Michael De Vere, Shannon Hegarty, Ryan Girdler, Craig Wing, Craig Gower, Brett Kimmorley, Phil Bailey, Joel Clinton, Danny Buderus, Luke Ricketson, Craig Fitzgibbon, Michael Crocker, Petero Civoniceva, Steve Simpson, Shane Webcke, Willie Mason, Richard Villasanti, Trent Waterhouse.



A special congrats to Mini, Hegs, Wing, Ricko, Fitzy.

But my biggest heartfelt GO YOU GOOD THING to Crock-a-dile. I said last year that this bloke would be selected to play for Australia.

11 players from yestrdays game - worthy of it all of them - including the Penrith players - feel sorry for Wesser though - he'd make a good backup for Lockyer if he got injured which he seems to do a lot these days

Lockyer is the best, but Wesser is a sensational player too. I've no doubt that he will play for Australia as well.


It's actually a pretty good team.

Minichiello and Wing, well, I hate to say this about Australia but here is a sample of the commentating if its like yesturdaY:

And the easy kick, straight to the sesseme street count dracula wanna-be who...oh no, a 3 year old could have had better hand placement, oh well, dropped AGAIN.

Later - Finally, its 72-6 all tries conceded by the counts great hands of jelly. Now, the ball goes to Wing, oh no, he has kicked sideways again...nooooo. This is a sad day when we have to replace injured players with these things. I mean Australia has more depth then this, but they have made a terrible decision going for "Count Dropsies" and Wing the great sidewayskick magician!

Get a life Foetus_head. One game in atrocious conditions doesn't make a player. If any players should be questioned its the Newcastle players after their pathetic showing in the semis.

All rooster deserve their position on the tour although hegarty :? dunno.

One thing about mini performance last night in those condditions is that i hope it was just an off night for him

If last nights performance was any indication of how he plays in those conditions then you may find he'll struggle playing against the poms.

Just my thoughts

This is true Mullet. I have never rated Mini as a fullback and always thought Luke Phillips' retirement would bite us in the arse sooner or later. But as for the Australian team I think Mini will play on the wing where he belongs with Lockyer at fullback.

 

[MAFIA]

not a bad allround side but how the hell did that wanna be mason get there
that is the biggest joke off all time and so is the player himself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mafia

 

[Holla if ya hear me]

But Villasanti should heve left for the kiwis :shock:

i'll think u'll find that mini will be fullback and lockyer will play 5/8 as it has been confirmed
