        Short on props as usual - but young Ryan James adds some size to the mix.

        Will actually be hard to beat on paper!

            I agree smeg - but at least the All-Star rules currently guarantee the Tigers two reps …

              What, no Tahu? 😆

              Pretty imposing side there, not short of playmakers or quick backs.

                  As much as we love him, he was never a chance behind Prince, Thurston, et al.

                      good starting team, but their bench is light on good props. theyll win but, theyve got more to play for. if any game was gonna be rigged, itd be this one. the whole week is built up on the indigenous ppl, itd be a let down of they didnt win

                        They are always light on for genuine props - but they have three big blokes on the bench who can play there in Webb - James and Paterson!

                        I would have Thompson starting ahead of Idris! Thompson is a great young player and he almost burnt us at Leichhardt this year!

                          Is Daley the coach? It was Henry last year right?

                              Somehow I don’t see many people voting for him at this point in time…

                                I always had a feeling that the match last year was going to be rigged and after watching the NRL all stats poor attempts at the double try it made me think that even more. I don’t think they can rig it every year though or it will start to look very suspicious.

                                  Rigged is a big call bro!

                                  The double try is all about the game’s true status as an exhibition game - not about deliverately throwing the result!

                                  The Indigenous team will always be ahead on the level of unified-motivation - and that combined with flair, speed and skill will win any such exhibition-style game more often than not!

                                  Expect more of the same next year!
