Essentially as title states. Call me a negative sort of gent, but im happy our man moses hasnt played a game over there, less chance of him getting hurt and missing pre-season for the blue and golds. Good experince for him, and assuming he will get paid well enough for the experience as well?

Tripping on a plane is NOT as fun as it sounds.
Don't get too excited , Troy . I'm hearing reports Moses got injured not even playing .
Shit stirrer 😂
Moses should never of went to on tour and concentrated on getting ready for next year with Parramatta , but Mitch being Mitch Parramatta is not his number 1 priority and never has .
Interesting that all of the blokes not getting a go are from NSW. Is this payback for Terry Fearnley?
You have a good memory Big D
Who really cares about winning 3 nill compared to just winning the series?
A dead rubber is the perfect time to give the others an opportunity. A waste of time talking them to have no opportunity short of injury.
I don't get the fuss, it's the right move.
Australian jerserys aren't to be just handed around willy nilly even if the other players are worthy of wearing it, which they all are.
If we were playing a 2nd tier team then you could probably give a few others a crack but it's an ashes test match. You pick the guys you thought were the best in the first place and that have so far got the job done.
I dont think the 17 named have perfromed well across the ffirst 2 games and theyre getting a 3rd test.
If Kev thinks theyre clearly the best 17 for the job then so be it, but some of the selections couldve been argued to be pretty borderline going in and the blokes that got the jump havent really run away with it. Mightbe been a good opportunity to go the other way.
Love to know whats going on with Nathan Cleary at rep level. Hes been solid as always but his sides regularly look unorganised and clunky at rep level. He doesnt grab them like he does at NRL level. NSW got worse when he came back in at 7 and Australia havent looked great either. He walks into every side though which is probably desrved after 4 comps.
I totally get what you are saying and I agree some of the selections to start with could have been questionable.
I have been saying for a couple of years that moses is a better 7 than cleary at rep level but cleary is clearly the best 7 at club level. I think Yeo takes a lot of pressure off cleary at club level but that hasn't transferred to rep footy, you could argue cleary is a system half-back.
