FERGUSON
MORRIS
JENNINGS
MORRIS
MALONEY
PEARCE
BIRD
LEWIS
HOFFMAN
GALLEN
FARAH
TAMAU
GIDLEY
WATMOUGH
MERRIN
FIFITA
Heres why….
1\. Gallen is not a prop
2\. Bird. Gidley and lewis are not nsw's best!
3\. Woods is one of the best props in the game atm (see SC/DT stats)
4\. Where is Fensom, Merrit, Tolman and both Reynolds?
5\. Why is watmough on bench?
6\. Gidley.... surely Mateo, J Reynolds, Hindcliffe would of been better utilites.
7\. we have one goal kicker.... qld will have 3-4 .....
8\. i dont care what anyones says pearce is not nsw's answer to the number 7\. Adam reynolds is better and should of been there.
9\. they wanted the same side but a few changes... thats fair if nsw was close to qld's standard. not sure if you guys watched last game of origin but the only reason why is was so close is because qld played so poor. they dropped alot of ball. can you really see them doing that this year... i think not.

1\. Dugan
2\. Merritt
3\. Hayne
4\. Jennings
5\. Ferguson
