Well done Wade

[LeagueNut]

I know it's going to fall into oblivion given that the Test Match is on at the same time ... but Wade McKinnon will be making his rep debut for City against Country on Friday night.

Looks like it'll be between Wade and Luke Patten for the NSW #1 jumper.

Go Wade.

Suck it, Ozbash!!!

Congrats, Wade!!!

they must be hard up for fullbacks....

Or you couldn't spot talent, if it spat in your face.

Didn't Ropati play well yesterday.

 

[Skinner]

Wonder if he'd like to stay there....

 

[NZ Warrior]

McKinnon > Hohaia @ Fullback.

I'd like to see if Hohaia could make it into City vs Country.

McKinnon is gonna tear it up and earn an SOO jersey.

On his "performance" yesterday.........ahhhhh....NO.

 

[AliN]

must say I'm surprised..he's played a lot better than he has so far in 2009.
He won't make the Roos fullback position tho, ever..way too many Qld fullbacks to choose from who are streaks ahead..

 

[NZ Warrior]

I didn't say anything about a Kangaroos jersey.

And McKinnon can only do so much. And it doesn't help if certain players keep on dropping the ball.

 

[Scott]

Kurt Gidley will be fullback for NSW. No doubt.

Bollocks...he's gone from being a game breaker to hopelessly out of form.

 

[TiggaPlease]

I'd love McKinnon to be NSW no 1, Unfortunately City/Country is just going through the motions. Gidley already has the no 1 on his back.

 

[NZ Warrior]

Gidley should be used in the halves, or as an impact player. McKinnon > Gidley @ Fullback.

Now let's stop the bullsh*t and congratulate one of our players, for earning representative honours. Some of you are being very inconsiderate.

 

[Scorpio30]

They just want a fullback who can get the job done but if he gets injured it doesnt hurt NSW/Australia at all....and this is the worst form Ive ever seen him in...Played better at Souths.

 

[Auckland4ever]

Has he been the same player since coming back from his long-term injury? My concern is that he isn't quite the same athlete he was when he joined the club. If that's the case, then his lackluster performances this year go deeper than a slump in form.
The McKinnon of a few years back>Hohaia. Not the case at the moment. Hohaia was terribly underutilized against the Dragons.

Still, well done to Wade for this. Hopefully we start seeing him bend & break the line again.

 

[Waitakere Warrior Fan]

Basically ditto to the above. I'm happy for Wade and think it's a nice reward for him, but on 2009 form I'd still rather have Hohaia playing fullback at the Warriors. Lance just wasn't as effective off the bench yesterday as he has been playing at fullback.

And at the moment Gidley will surely be NSW fullback, but a great game from McKinnon should see him rise up the pecking order at least!

Why don't all you Hohaia lovers go and start another thread and leave the genuine sentiment of congratulations, to those of us who mean it.

Well done Wade, though I wish he didn't play- City v Country is a waste of time

 

[ozbash]

You dont have to do the "Well done Wade" just because nzwazza says you have to, tell the truth..

they must have picked him on 'potential metres' , like yesterday when he was 3 metres in front of pricey with outstretched arms waiting for the offload,,, in front of pricey !!

getting rid of kemp was a piece of piss, Wades turn now...

it's ok Wazza, I know you're hurting cos I'm beating you in the VOT tipping this week.
Don't worry I'll post it shortly for all to see
