[applesauce]

The VB Australian Kangaroos side has been named:

*facepalm sheens* Thats a pretty weak team compared to others in recent years, but surely Yow Yeh playing must be a joke?
How long do we have to keep Tim Sheens as a coach, His a terrible Australian coach, Dave Furner would probably do a better job..

Idris and Yow Yeh??? Very interesting.

No demons in that team for New Zealand. It's going to be a cracker of a test i reckon.

How Morris is there is beyond me.

At least Yow Yeh has a combo in attack & defence on the right with Locky, Thaiday, Hodges.

Idris is the worst player to ever represent Australia

I do not know what the f**k Kade Snowden has to do to be picked for Australia.

 

[butchmcdick]

He is no Kafusi or Carl Webb.

Idris is just getting a handle on his position for the Dogs. Can you bring him on in the second row with twenty left and expect him to do a job up the middle against the Kiwi pack, who always finish strongly?

Uate should be dirty he missed out. If Morris gets the nod because of incumbency, Hayne should as well.

Tim Sheens prefers specialised wingers and Morris is the only winger that has rep experience whilst Yow Yeh is one of the form wingers in the comp. Him and Uate were close in selectors betting but i'd imagine that thumping of the Knights by Melbourne and Yow Yeh's good performance on friday night sealed his place. It's pretty much the team I thought would get selected except maybe I would have had Petero off the bench and Hannant starting but who knows Tim might switch them around before kickoff

I was surprised to see his name read out as well but Yew Yehs selection had me fixated.

 

[pennywisealfie]

Well done Jharal. Thoroughly deserves the selection. what a bright future. 5 Broncos, wow.

 

[roughyedspud]

yow yeh :lol:


and uate won't be bothered on missing out...he only switched to play origin

 

[wittyfan]

Why isn't Shillo at starting prop????

 

[Wilson1]

When's the kiwi team out?

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

lol what a shit team, hopefully the Kiwis win by 50

Idris is the worst player to ever represent Australia

That title belongs to Kurt Gidley

I was surprised to see his name read out as well but Yew Yehs selection had me fixated.

At least Yow Yeh has been consistent and has combinations with some of the other players, Idris is a bad enough in his preferred position I shudder to think what he'll be like out of position.

 

[aqua_duck]

Shillington should not be there, he's been back to his good old Shillo the pillow days this season

 

[The General]

Why isn't Shillo at starting prop????

Why is Shillo even in the team. He's done nothing this year. Snowden, Tolman and even Mannah are more deserving.

And I'm a Dogs supporter and think Idris' selection is stupid.

 

[DecoyRunner]

Do you reckon Yow Yeh and Hodges were picked cause the NSWRL people are trying to convince the QRL that they won't get screwed after the commission takes over state footy?

Conspiracy theory ftw

 

[Goddo]

They picked Idris....

Yep, just what we need, a big fat centre who can't tackle playing in the second row...


good job Sheens.
