I don't understand why Corey Parker is not being considered. The bloke is phenominal in defence and has a ridiculously large amount of hit ups per game, he offloads and can kick goals. He's a machine. What are the negatives about him that I'm not seeing?

Good point ... what are his tackle stats compared to say ... Luck, Stagg and Harrison? That's what will get him over the line for selection.

At a guess his tackle stats would be lower but hit ups probably higher. He'd have a lot more offloads than Harrison, maybe a similar amount to Stagg?? Anyway, he goes bloody well. As do the other blokes like Stagg, Bolton, Harrison, Thaiday. Teo and Gillett are killing it as well.

5. Folau
6. Lockyer
7. Thurston if fit/Cronk
8. Civeniceva
9. Smith

13-17 consisting of any of these:

Myles (certainty)
Cronk

Stagg


Could go many different ways, with Stagg, Parker and Myles all possibilities in the 13 jumper.

Surely Tuquri and Falou should be the wingers for Queensland. NOT Boyd. Please!

He's going well at fullback, but his days on the wing are finished.

Methinks Brent Tate should be in the mix...though if not, he can continue to play for the Warriors.

I've always thought Tate did really well in Origin games, made over 30 tackles one year if I remember correctly.

That said.. it has been a few years since he has been there.

I hope your right mate. Hes been killing it for the Dragons so him not being selected will be good for two reasons.

1. He wont get the opportunity to carve NSW up

2. He can carve up the Raiders instead next Sunday.

In saying that however Boyd will definately be picked for QLD.

Don't like Costigan one bit on the bench. Hasn't done all that much, would rather Scott Bolton. Matt Balin will get the no9 if Smith is out.

I dont mind your side, but i'd have shillington start and put myles on the bench ,shillo started for Australia so I think he deserves it, and id have taylor over costigan any day.

I think Queensland will have a better forward pack for the first time in a while if Hannant is fit.
