  the best thing about this side is that there is no gallen!
  he is quite possibly the worst footballer in the world!
  yes, he fires up but it always works against him, he cant handle origin!
  face it people, 'he is shit'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  look at the sharks for gods sake!!!!!!

    Gallen's a turd. It's hard enough to go for NSW wholeheartedly with Lyon and Ennis, so glad they didn't pick old Face Ripper.

  I think this is another 'glitzy' team picked by Lozz tha snozz, I don't like it - not enough hard workers in the backrow.
  
  Also did anyone hear Loz try to defend the choice of Gidley at fullback to Warren Smith om fox commentary when Hayne had just played a 10 out of 10 half of footy.. He sounded like a twit, all he could come up with is ' um I am sure that Gidley will play well too' or something like that.

    I just finished watching the game again and your right about Lozza the turncoat, he knew after Hayne had shown yet again that he is the form fullback, aswell as getting back to the form that won him the Dally M last year, picking Gidley was a joke.
    
    The selectors ( the same Retards that have picked the side for the past 4 years), chose Gidley at fullback because they didnt want to have egg on their faces for picking a bloke as captain in 2009 and then benching him the next year.
    
    Even Bellyache Bellamy was at a loss for words when the side was announced , all he could say was that there was a few spots that were highly debated, he more or less said that he got 90% of the side he wanted, but he still didnt seem too chuffed about the whole ordeal.

  NSW cannot beat Queensland without Jarryd Hayne at fullback. The decision to pander to Gidley, who despite having countless opportunities to entrench himself as the Blues custodian but never coming up with the goods, is an absolute disgrace.
  
  Queensland have world beaters all over the park. NSW have one and they stick him on the wing.
  
  I'm sure at some stage Idris will come into the centres and Jarryd will drop back to fullback, but its a stupid, stupid decision not to structure the majority of their attack around the most dynamic player in Rugby League.
  
  Hayne is a better ballplayer than either Kimmorley or Lyon. Especially with Lyon at six, you need another ballplayer. I simply cannot believe it.
  
  Can you imagine how dangerous Jarryd would be, when for once the opposition can't target him. Imagine Jarryd taking the ball at second receiver, running towards Lockyer with Creagh running off his shoulder and Idris and Tahu on his outside. What defence could cope with that?
  
  If they absolutely insist on putting Gidley at fullback then Hayne should have been five-eighth. They have to get into the game and they have to structure most of what they do around him.

    It is ridiculous - I liken it to playing Wally Lewis or Lozza himself in his prime on the wing - why would you?

    It's like the selectors are more interested in keeping everyone happy than picking a team to beat Queensland. "Ooh, we must make room for Gidley. Let's blunt our best attacking weapon to accommodate an also-ran".
    Trouble is, most rugby league discourse is controlled by about six former players, one of whom is mates with all the Knights. You shouldn't make the team for being a good bloke.
