Hindy, Poore, Moi Moi, Inu

[JessEel]

Oh and Guvner, at least Poore can now be a part of a team that doesn't choke come finals time.

Are you kidding??

We are at least on par with Dragons in the choking stakes!!! Neither team has had much success come finals time in the last 10 years

 

[bildo]

can we not turn this into another dick measuring contest??..please??

I'm comfortable with a dick measuring contest.

Hindy was pretty much given the hunt to retire from rep footy when he was made captain of the PMs XIII to play PNG (after missing out on SOO that year). That was his rep swansong.

Poore... I wouldn't be picking in Origin on form this season. And he wouldn't have made my City/Country side either. I hope he'll warm up as the season continues.

Moimoi should have made the NZ 17, but for some reason (injury, judiciary) wasn't considered. Fair enough I guess.

Inu shouldn't be anywhere near the NZ 17 on form.

Let's get a bit realistic about all this.

agree wholeheartidly with everything above

And can you explain the three Australian games in the Four Nations last year?

Rep swansong??? He played 3 tests last year in the Quad Nations including the final.

The last time we choked 'per se' was in 2005. The last time the dragons choked was last year. In my eyes that makes it ok for me to call them chokers. Plus im referring to the time that Poore has played, and he had one choking experience with them and none with us so far.

So in conclusion, dragons are chokers.

 

[Pazza]

Poore has suffered from a poor start to the season by both himself and the team!

Verse the bulldogs Poore made 115m off 14 hit ups + 31 tackles. With no errors or penalties conceded all in 40 mins!! he is definately comming along quite well.

 

[Craig Johnston]

who's 18th man for the kangas? i hear hindy may have been picked.

 

[Gaba]

coming off the bench for eels didnt help poores chances, also why he will be overlooked for origin. He is competing with other bench players who are in better form.

When with the dragons when he made the state of origin he was always in the run on team

Except that the first line is completely wrong.

Suity

No to all 4 players mentioned in the title, 3 have prob not played well enough to join respective teams and Fui was not considered due to injury... when are people going to get this, I've read at least 3 threads so far where this has been mentioned!!!!

I can't believe that country left Ben Smith out in favour of people like Mason. Looks like a NSW trial match for those not in the Aussie squad

 

[strider]

mason has been playing pretty darn well tbh

 

[Hellsy]

So why hasn't he been put in the Aus squad? NSW want to look at him and nothing more.

 

[1 Eyed TEZZA]

Mason can offer more impact then Benny, thats why I assume he has been selected. Bens worked harder over the last year, but he still cant to what Mason can do.

well there's only so many spots in the aussie team i guess

 

[IFR33K]

Bewildering how the NZ selectors can pick Inu after 1 game, and now after showing some good form in limited games, they give him the snub. FMD

 

[Hellsy]

Mason is a class A f**kwit, he has a little bit of impact all in bursts whereas Ben can play for practically 80mins.
All these selectors need replacing. Watmough ffs. :roll: :roll:

Bit harsh. Watmough is the most damaging attacking backrower in the NRL. Why wouldn't they pick him? Mason is a tosser, but has been very good for the Cowboys the past few weeks if he's playing well deserves selection. Benny at his best is nowhere near Mason at his best.

 

[Stagger eel]

As much as i love Ben, I can understand why they've opted for those guys ahead of him.
