ANZAC TEST TEAMS

[benjibrotown]

Getting pretty excited as this match as Im heading down to Melbourne next Friday to watch it, should be a cracker. Thouht I'd have a go at naming the two sides:
Australia
1.Billy Slater
2.Lote Tuqiri*
3.Greg Inglis
4.Michael Jennings
5.Brett Morris
6.Jonathan Thurston(vc)
7.Cooper Cronk*
8.Michael Weyman
9.Cam Smith©
10.Petro Civoniceva
11.Paul Gallen
12.Anthony Watmough
13.Glen Stewart

14.Luke Lewis
15.Josh Perry
16.Sam Thaiday
17.Luke Bailey

*Dont believe that these players will really be selected but they are the ones that I would pick. I no longer believe that Darren Lockyer is up to test level, when it comes to the Lote decision I just believe he is a better WINGER then Jarryd Hayne is.

New Zealand
1.Lance Hohaia
2.Sam Perrett
3.Junior Sau
4.Steve Matai
5.Manu Vatevui (Kenny Dowell replacement)
6.Benji Marshall©
7.Keiran Foran
8.Fui Fui Moi Moi
9.Issac Luke
10.Sam Rapira
11.Frank Pritchard
12.Bronson Harrison
13.Adam Blair(vc)

14.Jeff Lima
15.Jarred Waerea-Hargreaves
16.Frank Paul Nuuausala
17.Krisnan Inu
