Centres Matt Cooper and Mark Gasnier have been over looked for Willie Tonga, Brent Tate and Chris Lawrence.

Dean Young??? Oh sheesh.

Galloway is a bit unlucky but something to grow from in coming years
 
Well done to Lawrence and Farah!! Very very very surprised Cronk got the nod ahead of Prince. From that squad I reckon we'll see:

1\. Slater
2\. Morris
3\. Tate - specialist right centre
4\. Lawrence - specialist left centre
5\. Boyd
6\. Lockyer
7\. Cronk
8\. Shillington
9\. Smith
10\. Civoniceva
11\. Thaiday
12\. Bird
13\. Gallen

14\. Carney
15\. Lewis
16\. Leahroyd-Lahrs
17\. Myles

Watmough & Young are really confusing… I wouldn't have included Lewis in there either, but I reckon he's a shoe-in

P.S. sucked in Ennis
 
I think Lawrence should be picked in the starting 13 but I don't see it happening but this will be a great experience for him but why are selectors so being on Anthony Watmough??

got the tickets for the roo crew bay against png. row 3 woooooooo

Hi, Alien, do you know what time this game kicks off? Is it the only game on, or is there some sort of junior game on first?
I'm thinking of going, hoping for a daylight game though.

Cheers!
 
Remember when we were the Premiers and had just one player selected and Wayne Bennett the then Australian coach thought we did well to get one Aussie picked and then proceeded to give Scott Prince just the one game.
Well the shoes now on the other foot, we have the Australian Coach in Tim Sheens and Bennett is the Premiership winning coach, the Steelers might have had more players selected in the squad but seriously Boyd will be the only one selected, Morris may be selected but it would be at the expense of Willie Tonga.

Only 3 Dragons players were chosen, Morris and Boyd will most likely be on the wings (or Hayne instead of Boyd) but Young will see barely any game time. Gidley will probably be first choice utility, then Carney.

4pm. I haven't heard if there are any other games that day. I'll be in Bay 73 (Roo Crew Bay) Row C, Seat 23\. A few people from The Jungle will be with me. We are going to bring some Australian flags and stuff. It should be fun. I'm tipping the Aussies to win by about 30.

I'm very excited about this squad, I'm A true blue but I love an underdog and hence have always gravitated to the Kiwis when playing against Big Brothers - The Roos.

Plus for me the Roos always seemed a little political in their selections…

I'm happy to see a few more games b4 we hit the boring part of the sporting year...
 
GO THE MIGHTY WORLD CHAMPION KIWIS!

We have a great squad and I can't wait to go to the Kiwis v England Game.
Hopefully I'll get to have a drink with Marshall and Ellis :wink:
