NSW Selectors haven't learnt anything from the last 8 years so hopefully when it becomes a 10 year streak then maybe they'll learn. NSW selectors are like Australia selectors in cricket, soccer and rugby, so don't expect anything good from them to come. Edit: QLD to win the series QLD 2 NSW 1
Hope Hayne can score tries at the back like Stewart, Watmough is on the bench even though he has been the best performed Australian backrower this season, he will play at least 60 mins of this game that i think NSW will win by 8 points !
NSW has the players to beat Queensland the problem is the selectors haven't got it right yet. You have a coach who believes in loyally selecting his players (some of them anyway). A coach who takes three days to decide on a BENCH replacement, then the NSWRL gets it wrong, There are better halves than Pearce around, he has done nothing in any game he been selected in. Gallen is a back rower not a prop. Merritt has been the form winger for the past few years and still can't get a run. Farah is the better player but Ennis' niggle upsets the opposition. Like both the Aussie cricket team and the Wallabies, the better players are left languishing around and watching.
Nathan Meritt is the most overrated winger in the comp, but Adam Reynolds should be there for sure, what I can't understand is how you can drop Carney but not Pearce? also he is playing numerous players out of position, Lewis is starting, Watmough is on the bench and Grant dropped? QLD will now win 3-0
Without Merritt and Sutton it's QLD. 3-0.8 in the row for the rednecks."Sigh........"
QLD by 8 for this game, 2 games to 1 overall.
