Which eels do you think should get a start in the Cty v Country match in a couple of weeks.

I think Grothe and Morrison are certanties. Who else?

John Morris wouldn't look out of place in a Country jersey, especially a tight one.

City: Grothe, Riddell
Country: Morrison, Widders, Burt, Tahu, Morris, Hindmarsh*


*=If Test players are eligible this year


If a couple more injuries occur to players currently in front of him I wouldn't be surprised to see Adam Peek get a bench spot for City.

How long exactly until the game? If McKinnon returns next week he could come into the frame, but he'd need to be back next week.

The only certain selection is Morrison. Tahu and Riddell extremely likely too (Who is Piggy up against for selection?). Grothe makes alot of silly mistakes or else he'd be definite aswell.

Whoever the City hooker is, it'll probably be quite tough opposite Buderus (he'll have to play for Country since he didn't play in the test)

Is Luke Priddis City or Country??

I know he is NSW even tho he started his career with Brisbane.

If he is City Riddell won't make it.

Priddis played for Australia and therefore can't play the City Country game. I think he's a country boy anyway, maybe?

*EDIT* My Panthers fan mate reckons Priddis is definitely Country, he think's he might be from Wagga but isn't sure.

Let's face it, which other players beside Hindy have a realistic shot at NSW selection and would be in the top 4 outsiders likely to play in the cityvcountry?

Tahu, Grothe, Morrison? That would be all.

I think with Wing playing in the Test match, Riddell is basically the only hooker good enough to play for City isn't he??

Grothe, Morrison, Tahu Riddell, Morris might all be considered, with perhaps only Grothe and Morrison ending up selected.

Craig Gower will be City hooker won't he, since he didn't feature in the test?
