NSW/QLD State of Origin Selection?

Same as you for QLD, glad you put Gillett as well, he has been playing harder then nearly everyone out there, he will at least be put on the bench for the game.

I also agree with you for NSW (even though they are going to get smashed ;) ) and have to give my support for Gallen who is one of my all time favorite players.

I might not have responded with my own personal choice but I think you hit the nail on the head with your selection, it's going to be a good year.

Still not sure on Stewart at fullback, maybe Dugan is still in the picture. Morris on the wing is OK but Souths pair of Merritt and Everingham have been the form wingers. With Jennings playing for Windsor, the centres you have as well as the halves looks right. I'd look at Weyman and Snowden/Mannah/Douglas at prop with Farah at hooker. Gallen and Stewart in the second row and Lewis at lock. Bench: Bird, Sims and two of the above props not in the run on side.

Qld. Pedro or Hannant to start,. either way is good. I'd have Scott Prince on the bench plus your 16,17 & a8.

Loving your nsw team. Only change I would make would be a direct swap from Hinchcliffe to Farah. Otherwise love it. I like how you have t-rex and sims on your bench and the youngster woods who has been in magnificent form.

not that i really care too much for QLD but your team looks solid. Not sold on Teo though. I think they need a better utility in their bench. Someone like barb or cherry evans would fit the bill.
