Lets go back to 2009. A magical year. Who is the best fullback in NSW?

Kurt Gidley. Its Kurt Gidley!
Not Jarryd Hayne...the man who is debatably the best league/rugby player in the world in 2009.
Oh, but you say...Maybe he was too quiet at the start of 2009...
Game 1 2010 who is NSW Fullback - ?? Mr Kurt Gidley?#!

Now its 2017. No Thurston for QLD.
Do QLD pick Corey Norman? No. Have they ever heard of Corey Norman? Doesn't seem like it...?

I for one have had enough of the DISRESPECT shown to the blue and gold by both SOO camps.

  • And I am truly grateful for their selection omissions.
    • Agreed.
    • x3

  • Mate Corey has been a shadow of his former self this year, apart from a few nice kicks hes been poor even by his own standards, theres no way he deserved to be picked for origin and i said the same thing before the QLD team was picked.

    Hunt was my choice, i still dont think it will be enough to beat the blues regardless of who is picked but Corey just doesnt deserve it, hes not in form and im surprised his poor form hasnt been picked up on more in the media.

    Theres no disrespect shown to Parra or any club from the SOO selectors, they just want the best players, they arnt leaving guys out because they play for parra.

    • I'm surprised as well snake . For some weird reason his poor / quiet form seems to fly under the radar ....I can't fathom why
    • Can't agree more . Been very quiet in comparison to last season
    • Geez mate thats a bit of a negative view of Corey.

  • Remember the game that Ricky stupid actually left him out of the team i think Dugan got the nod.no wonder we have lost ten series in a row with blokes like that allowed to pick the team.
    nod.no
  • Corey had a good kicking game last week and to be quite honest it was his best game of the year however he hasn't been solid this year hasn't run the ball and hasn't wowed
    I'm glad he's not in the soo team
    • actually the first game against the dragons i believe he got about 3 try assists then did not play against the titans
