Three words Three Nil Qld
In an interview with 2GB< he said that the injury the Watmough, and the fact he probably won't be able to train for a week, is the main reason he was omitted.
Hayne instead of Brett Morris? Trent Merrin and Ben Creagh?? No Tim Mannah? There are issues all over the shop with this team, it's typical NSW to pick really weird teams but at least its picked and all the crappy speculation can end.
Kind of relieved Woods didn't get picked, very surprised Sims didn't get a look in but they're both young, would't be surprised if they're named 18th and 19th men and train with the squad as their the future.

I think they should of picked Minichello at Fullback with the Farah; Pearce; Carney combination…
Lacking a Prop on the bench isnt the secret to beating Queensland. :roll

Christ, why does Ricky always insist on Jarryd Hayne? He's the only one who hasn't cottoned on to the fact that Hayne just isn't that good most of the time and folds like a chinese laundry under pressure. Put Beau on instead - he can handle pressure and has been one of the form wingers over the last 20 odd games.
And don't get me started on Mitchell Pearce

Ben effing Creagh!!!! Have the selectors learned nothing??? And Williams straight in without playing a game this year, he won't be fit enough for Origin. No Sims - a **big** mistake, and Mannah is better than Merrin. Other than that - congrats Robbie - at least they made the right choice there for once.

This is honestly one of the most rubbish NSW sides I've ever seen and I've been following the last six years. In that time there's been plenty of crap teams put up by NSW but none as bad as this.
Queensland to absolutely destroy us.

Congrats to Robbie. As a Queenslander happy to see that NSW team. I really hope Robbie has a great series and plays all 3 games but I can see that team getting a couple of floggings and he will probably cop the blame again. QUEENSLANDER!!!

Another Stuart brainsnap - only 1 prop on the bench - Williams is big enough but spends most of his time out wide avoiding the tough stuff.

The only way we can win this is if the Storm's tour bus rolls off a cliff

Kinda nuts playing Tony Williams given his had no game time for a while, the side is a tad meh. Glad Robbie is there though.

Probably the only player selected that I take exception with is Ben Creagh, seriously the guy is a cream puff!.
@Flippedy said:
Tim Mannah is shit!! So glad that clown was left out. Merrin and that guy from the cowboys are a much better option. Big Sims should have been there instead of Creagh. How many times has Creagh been a dead set pussy for NSW and now Ricky talks about having him as a rotating prop. QLD will be licking their lips at facing Creagh. How good would the 2 human wrecking balls William and Sims have been double team JT, Cronk and co on the fringes…

Not the worst NSW team I have seen but it could of been better.
I like the spine but there are some players I dont understand why they are there. Hayne, Jennings, Creagh and Buhrer are the one's I am a bit baffled about.
I would of went:
B Morris > Hayne
Lawrence > Jennings
Prop > Creagh
Sims > Buhrer
I get the feeling Buhrer was a Bozo Fulton pick.
