Worst NSW team EVER!

 

[Mayor_Quimby]

why the f**k is mini on the wing???? if you don't want him at fullback then don't play him at all!

shaun timmins at 5/8th, ffs he doesn't pass the ball!

 

[Big Mick]

Luke Patten and Joel Clinton can feel very hard done by.

 

[Simo]

Luke Patten :lol: :lol:

Joel Clinton definately, by far the form prop.

Scott Hill should feel devistated.

Hornby has been playing fantastic footy this year and really if we want players picked on form he is the man.

Luke PAtten :lol: :lol: .. ordinary

 

[Bobby DIGital]

Oh my lord a Raider made it!

 

[Kurt Sherlock's Mo]

Wierd looking team.

Maybe Minichello is a chance to be scratched later in the week due to his rib problem. Fitzgibbon at lock and no specialist wingers?

Oh and Patton? :lol:

 

[Tigerpete]

I get the feeling a certain selector ....lozza, has been influential in the selection process all along. Why is Hornby at fullback ahead of Minichello? I"ll say now, he'll struggle, he should've been selected as a utility on the bench at best.

IMO, Scott Hill, Joel Clinton and Brett Hodgson have been dudded.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

When do the Qld selectors pick their team, it'll be interesting to see what team they'll pick with all the injuries.

 

[Matt23]

Timmins should be lock, Fitzy second row...Andrew Ryan :roll:

 

[DIEHARD]

THE QUEENSLAND TEAM ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[hybrid_tiger]

Scott Hill, Brett Hodgson, John Skandalis and Joel Clinton should all be there.

WTF is Andrew Ryan doing there? And Willie Mason? For Christs sake.

Timmins is not a five-eighth and I cannot believe Brent Kite is there ahead of Skandalis and Clinton.

Joke.

 

[Dogaholic]

Joel Clinton definately, by far the form prop.

I think you have Clinton confused with O'MELEY. THE OGRE - form NSW prop!

WTF is Andrew Ryan doing there? And Willie Mason?

Andrew Ryan has been playing really well. Working hard in attack and defence. He will do well for NSW. Who would you put there infront of Mason, last few weeks he has been pretty damn good.

Timmins should be lock, Fitzy second row...Andrew Ryan

Fitzy plays 4 minutes of RL and he you think he should walk into the NSW side. :roll:

IMO, Scott Hill, Joel Clinton and LUKE PATTEN have been dudded.

 

[[furrycat]]

You all bag Ryan... Have you actually watched him as of late? Doubt you have...

 

[Matt23]

I think people are just remembering Andrew Ryan's last origin appearance, it was littered with dropped balls and missed tackles :?

 

[Raider_69]

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
GO RHINO!!

FINALLY A RAIDER GETS SOME RECOGNITION!

 

[KulaShaker]

Gasnier? Hornby? Mason? Waterhouse? KITE? Rep football is NOT what it used to be. Menzies should feel extremely hard done by, as should Hill

Luke Patten :lol: :lol:

Hornby has been playing fantastic footy this year and really if we want players picked on form he is the man.

Luke Patten :lol: :lol: .. ordinary

:iwstupid:
Shows you watch nothing but the bottom of a schooner in Balmain :roll:

Patten was selected in Country over Hornby AND played all over him on Sat night getting a Dally M point for his trouble (L. Daley judge). I rate Hornby but he was very nervous under the high ball and not so good in attack last week.

Patten also sheeeeeeets all over Hodgson. 8)
