We also need players who read the game well defensively and make tackles. Farrell would be better in this respect than Hock or Westwood for me, but I see your rationale completely. George B is a must like you say - Him, Scott and Bromwich have been the best props in NRL so far this year from what I've seen. I wonder how Luke B will come back from injury. I don't think he can be discounted if he comes back well in 2nd half of season, he went well last year in NRL which gives him a leg up on the likes of Hill, Carvell and Mossop.cpwigan wrote:Personally I would go with a huge pack and that means the biggest forward in the NRL, George Burgess is a must. You only need 1 small forward and that would be Lockers which means no Faz.
Forward wise we have the likes of Sam Burgess, George Burgess, James Graham, Gaz Hock/Ben Westwood. We literally need to batter the Aussies into submission by selecting a team that can pin the Aissies back in their 20 which negates their backline advantage. I the game comes down to backline v backline v Aus we will lose. We need a very big pack and at least 2 great kickers.
I do not think Steve Mac will not pick Sinfield.
