    Lets hope he gets to lift two trophies this year.

    I think this will actually mean that we get better performances from Rocky. He may even be relieved.

    Gotta feel for Pek Cowan and Matt Hodgson, on the fringes of the 22 all season and then dropped off.

    How come so many NSW injured players picked with little or no game time, happy for Barnes as I really like him as a player and person, but Palu, Horne, come on!!!

    Still think Gits ommission is a major blunder, but the time has now come to put dissapointments behind us and hope that we lift the Webb Ellis in the next ouple of months and then all will be forgiven and forgotten

    Barnes is one im not keen on, sitting on the sidelines lately scared of getting another head injury.

    I am flabbergasted and peturbed. Our only Ball fetcher is Poey. If he gets injured - Who? RocKy, Samo, Ben, Cliffy, Higgers??? Hodgo has been very hard done by.

    Totally agree - a very one dimensional backrow - crash and bash but not much else. I just hope that Bam Bam stays fit or turnovers could be at a premium.

    We can only assume that Bam will be playing 80 minutes every match, and only tackling when desperate, since he needs to be second man to EVERY ruck.

    The other back rowers sure need to top the tackle stats!

    That is very hard to accept. Most are selections we'd all have made except Samo, McCalman and Higginbotham? Surely when you consider Palu's selection one would have to make room for Hodgo. I'd have predicted Samo to stay for his versatility and impact and the unlucky one would be from the other two.

    Giteau must have done something really distasteful to be passed over. Not knowing what that was, I'd have had him rather than Phipps to cover 3rd scrum half to inside centre.

    Gits will get called up when Berrick cops his first knock to the head (I hope is does not happen, but the risk is there, both ways!!)
