Allow me to translate from bullsh*t to english
1 - Hodgo <-- was once a rep fullback but wont get a look in over mini (true but if Mini gets injured or phones a friend Hodgo should be next in line if his 2004 form continues on)
2 - Reick
3 - Whatuira <-- is an internation but hell he aint that good (I Agree)
4 - Elford
5 - Richards
6 - Marshall <-- Might be an internation if he can accually stay fit (Yep)
7 - Prince <-- yes is QLD halfback, Seymore might have something to say about it this year (The only way Seymour will jump Prince is if the selectors go back to 'good enough for Brisbane, good enough for Queensland' thinking)
8 - Skandalis <--- good player but not NSW quality (isnt the flashiest player but wouldnt let anybody down, less deserving players have been picked)
9 - Galea <--- :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: New Sou :lol: :lol: th :lol: :lol: Wales this :lol: :lol: this year! :lol: :lol: Comedic genious! (Benny G is one of the classiest players in the comp. If he had had a better injury run or played for a higher performed team there is no doubt he would have played SOO by now. He is highly thought of by his peers, just ask Brad Fittler, he said he is Origin Standard)
10 - Payten <--- not a snowballs hope in hell of being anything but a first grader (potentially could be but not until he starts putting his body on the line)
11 - Laffranchi <--- Wont be anything but a first grader, too much talent infront of hime (Wests best forward for the last two years, again if the team performs he will be in with a chance for a Country jumper, I rate him higher tehn Skando)
12 - Harrison <--- International - I got raps on this kid but he has alot to get infront of in the 2nd row, wiki, Joe, Puletua, SBW etc (WILL play for N.Z this year, watch out NRL!)
13 - McGann <--- NSW and INTERNATIONAL!? :lol: :lol: :lol: Yea well maybe in union, not a chance in the NRL (Ill reserve judgement until Ive seen him play)
14 - Gibbs
15 - Meredith
16 - Halatau <--- Again too much talent infron of him to be an internation this year, but his future is bright (Daniel Anderson said he was the best trainer on the tour so I think he is in with a big chance if the coach has wraps on him)
17 - Fitzhenry
