yes anasta hasnt been in his best firm but even after the brisbane game he was still the main five eigth to be selected. The Bulldogs did lose to the Tigers, yes. But correct me if im wrong didnt the dragons get flogged by the cowboys. So where the hell does timmins come into it.
Still no excuse for the Bulldogs poor form but they are ahead of the dragons, and i havent seen Timmins play any better than Anasta.

If NSW want to pick an old man I'm not going to complain.
The thing I find funny is the backflip Gould has done. He came out a couple of weeks ago after Barrett got injured saying Anasta was basically in.

Im not saying Timmins is a bad player im just saying there is a professional five eigth waiting there for selection and they go for a centre.

After the hiding NSW get at the hands of Queensland the selectors will soon realise the mistakes they have made with the side they have selected.

I was totally shocked to see Timmins picked over Anasta. I mean the selectors are basically telling us all that Timmins is the best five-eighth in NSW......i mean how is that possible when he does not even play 5/8... i mean 2 weeks at 5/8 does not mean u are a full time qualified 5/8. IF TIMMINS IS THE BEST 5/8 IN NSW....I'M NOT HERE!!!!!!! :evil:

To pick Timmins at 5/8 they have basically told players of the calibre of Scott Hill, Braith Anasta, Craig Gower and Mark McLinden that he is better than them at their own position. It's also weird that Phil Gould has changed his selection philosophy after just one weekend of football. :?

Anasta's only 21 years old, he's not exactly washed up.... In fact any club that wouldn't pay top dollar to have them in their side with his potential for the future would be rather crazy.

RE: Timmins, nothing against him as a centre but I think the 5/8 joke went on for long enough, just because he didn't exude complete incompetence in that position doesn't mean he should be the incumbent NSW and Australian 5/8, it's a VERY sad indictment of the creativity and skill of the NRL to have Timmins filling such a role at Rep level.

Braith's minimal form doesn't mean he deserves a selection now, but he'll be in their in the next year or two, see if I am wrong.

Moral of story, I don't give a stuff if Braith hasn't been picked at Rep level yet, he'll get there, in the meantime DROP the Timmins at 5/8 farce, if Rugby League had international credibility Australia would be a laughing stock for fielding someone with his ball playing skills at 5/8

Matt Geyer should be Australian 5/8 over Timmins, if Timmins wasn't injured, and your not gonna give it to Anasta.

At least he's a damn 5/8, and despite him being terrified of the bulldogs he goes well against everyone else

Or even Craig Wing, or Darren Lockyer and bring in another Fullback, Timmins is no 5/8, if creativity and skill in that position is needed.
