Mitchell Pearce

[Saxon]

AUSTRALIA: Backs: Billy Slater, Darius Boyd, Will Chambers, Dane Gagai, Tom Trbojevic, Josh Dugan, Valentine Holmes, Cooper Cronk, Cameron Munster, Michael Morgan, James Maloney.

Forwards: Aaron Woods, David Klemmer, Josh McGuire, Andrew Fifita, Jake Trobojevic, Jordan McLean, Boyd Cordner, Matt Gillett, Tyson Frizell, Wade Graham, Felise Kaufusi, Cameron Smith, Ben Hunt.

So, according to Mal; Cronk, Morgan and Maloney are better number 7s than Mythchell. Given the way the international game is played these days the half and 5/8 are pretty much interchangeable and he still didn't get a guernsey - so you would have to think Munster is ahead of him, and with Hunt there for his utility value then he probably rates higher in Mal's opinion as well. With Thurston in the mix too, that puts Piss at 7th. At best.

And you could make an argument for Cleary and/or DCE to be in the World Cup squad over Mythchell as well...

When it comes to rep football, a ripped pillowcase offers more than pearceoff.

What an insult to ripped pillowcases.

Albert is way ahead - he doesn't even have Mitch in the Rooster's "Big 4" these days

Word is Roosters are trying to offload Pearce but no clubs are intetested.

Geez.

Given he can get a team into the 8, the Cowboys should sign him. Pearce can play the 26 rounds and get the cows to the finals while the Cows keep Thurston in cotton wool. Then when they make the finals they can ditch Pearce and go in with a fresh Thurston.

Just imagine having both in your halves!

Not giving McGreggor ideas!

As appalling as Pearceoff is ar rep level, he is a good first grade half. I'll certainly concede that.

Worse than Hunt? Retire now buddy.

I heard that Pearce rejected Australia to play for tonga.

But tonga said no thanks.

Origin 1 replay is on FoxLeague right now. Pearce's greatest Origin moment where he gets knocked out and NSW dominate as a result.

 

[Albert Rosenfeld]

Mitchell Pearce will come back stronger in 2018 knowing that he has NSW coach Brad "Freddie" Fittler in his corner.

I don't know who you're quoting.

 

[Saxon]

I don't know who you're quoting.

I was quoting the post you were critiquing. The one you obviously didn't read properly.
Clarifying to you that I didn't actually say that Hunt was better.
