Well the test and City v Country is over so after this weekend whats the NSW team likely to be.
Kurt Gidley will be selected along with Mitch Pearce, I believe never deserve it.
Likely Team:
1- Steward
2- Uate
3- Morris
4- Jennings
5- Hayne/Morris
6- Bird/Carney
7- Pearce
8- Merrin/Grant
9- Farah
10- Tamou
11- Watmough
12- Lewis
13- Gallen - Move to Prop during match
14- Gidley
15- Grant/Merrin
16- Woods
17- Hoffman
My team:
Big strong backline with renolds kicking and Birds toughness: As Johns said he would have Bird at 6 as you need a running 5/8 and Bird has won man of the match in 4 of his 12 stae of origin matches. He is a little slow laterly but thats where Lewis and Watmough add.
1- Morris
2- Uate
3- Morris
4- Jennings
5- Hayne/Taufau
6- Bird
7- Reynolds
8- Woods
9- Farah
10- Tamou
11- Watmough
12- Merrin
13- Gallen - Move to Prop during match
14- Lewis - Only reverse back which is risky - who is a good utility option?
15- Mason - He adds a load of passion
16- Cordner/Fifita/Sims/Mannah
17- Hoffman
