Roos: Mini out- Hunt in

[innsaneink]

Minichello has been ruled out after failing another fitness test this morning, despite passing a fitness test yesterday.

We have a Kiwi as fullback. Booooo!

This is gold. I dont agree with it, but love the controversy it will cause...best part about it is that it has zero to do with Bennett.

 

[waltzing Meninga]

What a disgrace.

Shifofski, Wesser, Hornby, Mckinnon and Bowen all deserved a place ahead of him

 

[Frederick]

f**k off! Worst. Selection. Ever.

Why the hell was Bowen 18th man then? What a joke

 

[Electric_Eels]

hmm wonder if he'll get picked for QLD for State of Origin 1

cutie to make his debut! Who would have thought it two days ago.

Bowen has cause for being upset especially being overlooked on the back of one poor game and a few quiet ones. The other four have had limited representative exposure as has Hunt. Such a shame that Hodgson has been injured.

IMO though he is younger if you are going with a rookie fullback it should have been Greg Inglis.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

The other logical solution would have been to move Lockyer back to one and bring Thuurston into the starting lineup and play a utility from the bench.

Yes, can't wait now. I may head to the game now that Karmichael is playing. This is so good one of my proudest days!

i pity you

imagine if Hunt played netball :shock:

 

[willvillain]

Haha, oh dear. Terrible decision, very dissapointing.

That said: Hunt to have a blinder, bag a double and win the game for Australia.

 

[Tigertread]

We have a Kiwi as fullback. Booooo!

And they have an Aussie

 

[kay]

its going to add to the spectacle, karmichael hunt who is seen as a traitor. and added to that up against his mate benji who tried to get him to play for kiwis a month ago.

For sure.......ridiculous decision that a bloke that wouldnt even be 4th picked for QLD is the Australian FB.....

A joke.....:evil:

 

[[furrycat]]

Probably only selected him to keep the whinging Queensland veterans happy...
"We want more Queenslanders in the side or else we won't go to the game!"

 

[broncoman]

Yes, can't wait now. I may head to the game now that Karmichael is playing. This is so good one of my proudest days!

for once i think we agree, im happy Hunt has been picked, dunno if he deserved it or not, but hes been given a chance and all he can do is his best...

 

[simon says]

I hope the Kiwis smash him.....

:lol: :lol:

This is actually funny. How ridiculous. Who cares about the fact that he is a Kiwi, he's just not up to test standard. Greg Inglis is a FAR better prospect. Fany replacing Bowen with Hunt with the rationale of Bowen not being good under the high ball. It's hardly Hunt's forte either.
