It was laughable someone like Merrin missed out on Orgin while the media continued to jizz over a down right plodder like Plod Jackson. With that cancer Gallen gone Merrin should slot straight in at lock, i'm not holding my breath.

You'd have to think Trbojevic won't be far away from getting the Lock gig,

Why can't Benji just accept that his time is up? He goes ok in the media From what I've seen and is not a smartarse which seems to be a requirement these days. Give me Sterlo any day before Matty Johns, Fletcher and Hindmarsh.

Benji could do an ok job if needed. Aslong as he played second fiddle.

Fletcher I do not find funny. He acts like a 15yld boy. I do not see the humor. And Johns is off with the fairies.He is thou a funny guy I reckon.

If you're referring to their respective shows, I don't agree and the numbers absolutely show that with both shows being at opposite sides of the ratings figures.

The best thing about Sterlo's show is the interview, otherwise it is fairly pedestrian. Rarely discusses anything that hasn't already been gone over a million times before by others. And interviewing current players who just crap out cliches is the height of boresville, which I almost always fast forward, especially if it's someone like Inglis or Barba who could put a cocaine abuser to sleep.

I think Jake trib is overated. I mean he is good but they bang on and on about him......

Look Merrin is first picked but we have 10 guys who can play backrow. Heck KE wouldn't be out of place.
Cordner - Jackson -Merrin. Frizzel on bench.

1 Tedesco
2 Mansour
3 Hayne
4 Bird
5 Morris
6 Moylan
7 Pierce
8 Woods
9 Farrah
10 Tamou
11Cordner
12Jackson
13Merin
14 Klemmer
15 Fifita
16 Frizzel
17 Cartwright

I dont think benji is that great in the media ... he is on nrl360 with ennis and he is basically a pointless merkin in a seat... mind you ennis is very good .... not saying benji is worse than the bufoons on some shows, but he's not great

No one on sterlo's show makes a controversial statement ever. Maybe now that Parker is retired next year he might speak his mind, being a Queenslander thou he may not have one.

That bench would cause havoc. Could destroy QLD on its own in 20 mins if the starting 13 wore them out.

If NSW can't win 2 games next year with that side then they will never win another series ever.

Matty Johns was cringeworthy during the Dally M awards.

At times yes. He is a hit and miss type of personality. But his show is good and starts the week off well. It works. They're an odd bunch, but it somehow works, so let it roll I say. Let it roll.

Each to own. A grown man acting like a kid isn't my type of humor. ( fletch) Johns is just of chops.I kind of like it.
Sam Newman thou is 10 x funnier then all of them.

So who is the best ball player in the NRL?
Ben Hunt still set up 21 tries and 15 LBA. That's a good amount. I know he didn't play much but norman only had 6 LBA's Moylan topped it with 27. I think I pointed out he would be the best ball player within a few years and was second to Thurston.
Milford thou seems to have the best range of line breaks - try assists and LBA's. Morgan surprised me how high he was?

Wow De gois stats are so depressing. 2 LBA's 2 try assists and ran for 400 mtrs

Licha manged 8 + 8 and 650 mtrs

BA doesnt want a flashy dummy half ... he wants a strong defender - degois is definitely that

Infact if it wasnt for our outside backs, we'd be as boring as batshit ... we dont have an attacking team
