I think I heard this activates a rep bonus clause in Mannahs contract. Gotta feel for Poore, I think he may have made it if it werent for King being 18th man for the 1st 2 games.

I have a sneaking suspicion that all the talk about Poore being unhappy earlier in the season stemmed from Poore having incentives in his contract if he plays rep footy (that reportedly big contract may not be as big without the bonuses) - and being benched Poore recognised its harder to stake a claim for a SOO spot cos people generally think a starter is better than a benchy - so maybe poore was a bit unhappy how things had panned out

Not fair for Hindy, dead set that bloke was easily top 2-3 in game 2 if not the best imo.
Using the same logic for dropping Hindy, Morris should've been dropped, Barrett should've been dropped and Pearce also, his saving grace is that he has the prospect of being 'blooded'. Jason King's been a sack of sh*t this year, Greg Bird is a proven performer at 5/8 not lock, and neither Barrett, nor Pearce can play first reciever properly. I'd easily have Soward in 5/8 because he actually plays a proper playmaker role-_-.
But excellent that Snowden and Mannah are in, Mannah especially will have sh*tloads of impact off the bench.

Guys!! take a deep breath

Due to Form is as opposed to Due to Injury or Due to Suspension. It's just a way to phrase 'we thought the team would go better with these people and these combinations'

I don't think it's actually the selectors saying to him 'you, hey you - you're sh*t!'

Good onya, Timmy. Fittler was saying he thought it was a real bad idea to throw any newbies into this, last, game. I can't remember why, as i was too out of it . Sounded pretty right at the time though. :cool:

Happy to see Mannah, Snowden and Bird in but Hindy should be there instead of Watmough or TLL.

Happy that they finally dropped Creagh.

Great stuff for Timmy & will be great experienct for him but these NSW selectors are a joke for dropping Hindy. QLD are laughing at us & they;ll smash us again. Like Sterlo said the selectors are just stuffing Hindy around.

Caught a little word with Timmy yesterday guys - he said to pass on his thanks to everyone that has left messages of support and congratulations for him through the club and on his facebook page. He's one happy little camper at the moment, and can't wait to get out there.
I thought he might have been a little overwhelmed, but no, i should have known he would just make best friends with everyone and look comfortable, like he's been there for years!! :lol:
