No, really, you want to put the most effective NSW fullback onto the wing to accomodate the inferior one.

Put some cold water on your hard on and let it go down.

no, I want to play the most *effective* one, Gidley, at fullback.

I want to play the most *spectacular* one on the Wing - which is where he seemed to spend 1/2 the game vs the buns anyway.

you need to get over the Gidley hate, it is clouding your already dubious judgement.

Gidley as an interchange player? Mason? Mullen? Gallen as captain? Cross? Another sh*t side although likely to resemble the dross that Bellamy will select. New South Wales has lost three series by picking these teams. When will they learn?

Im not saying it should happen, just throwing it out there. What do people think about Kimmorley getting the crack at no.7 and Ennis at no.9. They have a great combination going so it may just be an idea???

Chuck in The General and I think you would have the Bulldogs' 1/7/9.

Is Holdsworth eligible to play for NSW or is he from WA?

I'm surprised @ the lack of people picking Galloway. This guy has been a beast, he's averaging like 11m per hit-up, compared to the next best which is like 8.

Pretty much. I don't hold high hopes for NSW while Bellamy (or any club coach for that matter) is coach. Get too caught up in their own teams success, pick nuffies like White and Cross who are made to look good by the superstars around them but simply aren;t up to Origin level.

As said in a previous post Stewart did play a bit on the wing against the Rabbitohs and he would still have action under the high ball anyway as wingers and fullbacks play similiar roles in that way, Gidley must start he is too good a player not to be in the squad and with Jennings he is available for selection for NSW and has speed.
The centers have strength and wingers having speed would be a good combination i figure

5. Joel Monaghan
6. Terry Campese
7. Peter Wallace
8. Luke Bailey (an old head up front)
9. Robbie Farah (has to be ahead of Ennis)
10. Brent Kite (for the fact he's been there before. who else is there?)
11. Anthony Laffranchi
12. Glenn Stewart
13. Luke O'Donnell

14. Ben Creagh/Feleti Mateo
15. Michael Weyman (he'll go nuts :p)
16. Anthony Toupou
17. Luke Douglas/Kurt Gidley

Bascially Creagh and Mateo can slot in centres if needed for an injury in backs, if Douglas is selected.
If Gidley is selecyed, Creagh/Mateo can play backrow.
Rest is self-explanitory really.
