Who will fill the remaining positions for NSW?

[aids]

Fitzy is a certainty due to goalkicking. If he doesn't play, then they'll make room for El Masri.

or bumper farell

remember minorities don't play for NSW

 

[Sea_Eagles_Rock]

Short of injury, Watmough has a blue jersey...

Menzies wouldn't look out of place either...

andrew ryan better not come off the bench, he starts or doesnt play at all is my figure of him, he is an 80 minute player, not a impact player...

[aqua_duck]

After his performance tonight I don't think there's any doubt Barrett will be 5/8th.

 

[Balmain_Boy]

What is up with Barrett? He was awesome tonight, as soon as he puts on the red & white he's usually ordinary. I would understand that if his attitude was bad, but he seems to give it his all when playing for the Dragons. I really don't get it.

 

[aqua_duck]

I think its just the dragons are that inconsistent a team, on paper they should be able to beat anyone, but everytime Barrett puts on a rep jersey he's challenging for MOTM, I'm telling you now if every game was a rep game for Barrett he'd be the best player in the world without doubt.

 

[Hurriflatch]

Based on tonight and also previous matches club form.

1. Anthony Minichellio
2. Luke Rooney
3. Matt Cooper/Mark Gasiner (whoever gets un-injured 1st)
4. Matt King (quite game tonight but has been good enough in clubs games)
5. Eric Grothe Jnr
6. Trent Barrett
7. Brett Kimmorley
8. Luke Bailey
9. Danny Buderus
10. Jason Ryles
11. Nathan Hindmarsh
12. Craig Fitzgibbon
13. Andrew Ryan

14. Craig Wing
15. Ben Kennedy or Trent Waterhouse
16. Anthony Watmough
17. Anthony Tupou

 

[aqua_duck]

personally I'd have Waterhouse or Kennedy starting at lock and an extra prop on the bench, origin is too physical to have only 1 back up prop.

His second try was very Fittler-esque wasnt it ? Huuuge step by the big fella

Ryan can shift into prop if needed he did play there a few times for Parra before moving the the Dogs not sure if he has played there since.

But honestly, I think Ryan did enough tonight to gain a starting spot.

Kennedy and Waterhouse might both miss out if a 2nd bench prop is needed.

 

[Munky]

Why should Bailey and Ryles start?

They are go uncited quite often in the opening minutes of a match and that'll get NSW slaughtered in Origin.

 

[Sea_Eagles_Rock]

1. Nokiacello (Keep Gas away fom his phone)
2. Rooney
3. King
4. Gasnier
5. Lewis
6. Barrett
7. Kimmorley
8. Bailey
9. Priddis
10. Ryles
11. Hindmarsh
12. Fitzgibbon
13. Kennedy

14. Watmough
15. Waterhouse
16. Clinton
17. Wing

BTW... Waterhouse can cover prop.

 

[Darko]

1. Anthony Minichiello
2. Luke Rooney
3. Matt Cooper
4. Mark Gasnier
5. Matt King
6. Trent Barrett
7. Brett Kimmorley
8. Luke Bailey
9. Danny Buderus
10. Jason Ryles
11. Steve Menzies
12. Nathan Hindmarsh
13. Craig Fitzgibbon

14. Craig Wing
15. Ben Kennedy
16. Anthony Watmough
17. Joel Clinton/Anthony Tupou/Brent Kite :? Tough one

 

[Hurriflatch]

Darko: From that team I'm guessing your a Manly fan or at least have a soft spot for them.

Just on Kite has he done anything this year??

maybe I'm just missing something but despite Manly's good form Kite really hasn't stood out. It's been more guys like Watmough, Kennedy and Leuluai who have impressed in their forwards.

 

[BlueNGoldBlood]

i reckon the selectors are gonna pick something like

6. Barret
13. Anasta

or vice versa...

watmough on the bench after that game, very solid game
riddell to steal wings bench spot :evil: :lol:

 

[Timmah]

Fitzy is only a certainty because his jumper has the colours navy, red and white on it. El Masri IMO did enough to take the GK role and therefore a wing spot. NSW would be well served with Magic on the wing and it would allow someone who can actually play to be a 2nd rower, i.e. Hindmarsh/kenners, hindmarsh/ryan or even hindmarsh/watmough based on tonight's performance.

Wing off the bench? What's he going to do blind them with his pink outfit? Sherwin did more tonight to deserve a spot than he has all year.

Good to see Ricketson out of contention.

I still don't understand how players from teams in positions 12 and 13 deserve Origin spots. Makes no sense to me.

SO Danny Buderus should never play rep footy again?
