[Stagger eel]

YOU PHUCKEN BEAUTY!!!!!!

Just announced on 2GB!!!!

 

[rednut]

well done guru jnr, shouldve been there in the first place

 

[The Colonel]

About bloody time...... now to see if he actually gets a game.

 

[Stagger eel]

Eric Grothe Junior - International [I like the sound of that, just quietly]

 

[Mr Saab]

indeed will be interesting if he gets a game vs the kiwis or poms.
I think he will get a game vs the french.

Considering the only way he'll play against the Kiwis is if they make the final then your probably right ion that count. My main interest lies in whether "everyone on tour will play at least two games"......

 

[Mr Saab]

depends if Wayne Considers that warmup game in sydney (b4 test 1) as a "game"
If so then it looks like all players will play at least 2 games.
Maybe not Grothe.
Wayne does have some selection headaches. I would have Grothe on the wing for sure, but that leaves one of his boys in Tate out of the picture...hmmm

Not if he picks the team on form rather than reputation.

My point exactly.....

 

[Twizzle]

hell yeah, go the Guru

since when does Bennett pick the team on form,

unfortunately I cant see Guru pushing a Bronco out of the team

 

[poojar]

well done Guru, should of been there from the beginning

 

[stiffmeister]

Justice has been served

 

[Mr Saab]

since when does Bennett pick the team on form,

what would your reaction be if Grothe was a test player for 3 yrs, but all of a sudden had a avg to poor 4th season? Would you want him out of the team as he isnt in "form"....or....would you hope there would be some loyalty shown?

 

[Morenito]

About time

 

[Twizzle]

wtf does loyalty have to do if you are out of form, of course I would expect him to be dropped

this is not club footy, Kangaroo jumpers dont come out of a show bag

we should always be playing our best possible team on current form imo, not last years form

What Twizz said.

 

[Mr Saab]

fair enough. As long as i know where you stand on the matter.
Thats right, jumpers dont come out of a showbag, hence why players should really have to earn a test jumper, not just be handed out for one season of good form....have to be consistent.

 

[forward pass]

Well Done Guru Jr.

Father and Son internationals. Does anyone know how many times that has happened.
The Gasniers is the obvious one.

Consistency can be rewarded Saab. Players like Skandalis, Morrison and Southern and quite a few others not picked have shown consistent form over the past two to three years. These players should be rewarded for their consistency whereas players like Mason and Fitzgibbon who aren't playing to their best form should be made work their way back in....
