What's This Guy Been Smoking?

"Galloway and Stewart are excellent selections. Both men are underrated, hard and are in career-best form. Galloway provides great go-forward and strong ruck defence. Stewart has more tricks in his bag than the other NSW backrowers in the squad. However, it is extraordinary that the Blues selectors continue to snub Feleti Mateo, who can do everything Stewart can do and more. After a slow start to the year Mateo has hit rare form, exemplified by his best-on-ground showing in a beaten side against Storm."

The reason that he hasn't been selected is that he is not eligible. He played for Samoa in the World Cup but has not pleaded his allegiance to Australia or NZ. Because of this the ARL refuses to allow him to be eligible for SOO. This guy should do his research before he decides to write an article on it.

Not sure who offered more in financials though. "

I cannot answer for EA, but if there is a kid to play 6 now the closest bet would be Papali'i or Volkman. In future Twidle or Talataina could be the future.

when staff turnover is like a revolving door, it is never a good sign of stability"
