"Yep this is what I'd have and I'd be signing Spencer Leniu to partner Sam.
This would require Paulo taking a team friendly deal.
Edwards and Samrani rounding out the bench. "

"Not sure Kelma drops out. But it makes sense too. I think Mataele makes more sense even though I feel it is a tiny bit harsh since he has been not too bad. But also I feel Ryles prefers Williams on an edge as well."
"It has to be. Sucks for Mataele but also Brown has more upside unfortunately."
"This could be the first time I've agreed with you Professor daz. Now I need a bourbon to get over it"
"Unless a prop (Morettti, Williams, Tuivati and Maetele) is injured, T Brown coming in would be Williams shifting to edge? And Williams has mostly covered right edge backrow.

"Super mentioned his on poddy and is spot on. Brown is your RCG type. Punishes opponents and knocks them flying in defence. Tuivaiti is more that tuck under the arm and run and split markers. He's the Paulo type without the ball playing.

"I wonder who misses out. I said to HOE and Super on poddy of this but said who does he replace? Unless someone is a late exclusion. Look at the current bench. Tuivaiti will play, Edwards will play and Walker will play. It leaves Mataele as the odd…"
"I think with the way Ryles was talking Edwards is the now starting with his versitility. It's either Edwards or Smith and Smith can only play Hooker.
Though hopefully Smith can just dominate NSW cup."

"Yep, and Parramatta have the advantage of upgrading him aswell. He should be a straight forward extension "

Remember Rodney Hogg
Rodney was a late arrival to Test cricket at age 27. Born in Victoria he was overlooked by state selectors and moved to Adelaide to find an earlier path to Shield.He was selected and within a year he was noticed by Alan Davidson who mentioned his…

Cannot see why not, but unfortunately the battling line looks as fragile as poppa's hips!lol it appears it could be a tough summer
Nothing wrong with my hips Mickey. It what hangs off them thats a bit wobbly!
Please no pics pop's!lol Keep it PG.
In the absence of 'experts' in the field I'd think the batsmen at the top of the order need to book a bulk visit to a good shrink. The fog and uncertainty need to expelled so they can play once again assured. Only Travis, Marsh and Carey are currently mentally fit to play a role in the test team. India has a dynamic bowling group, but they're aided large by the meek effort of some of our batters.
Hope you're right Mick, I always look to our cricket team to take my mind away from the o'rf season. If there's no bounce back from them, my only back-up is the Thunder.
Yeah RJ, cricket is a great game takes our minds off footy for while but now its seems NRL is 365 day business - all it takes is a great knock or great partnership and it can turn a series
They need a talk from Steve Waugh. Learn what it takes for the mental disintegration of your opponents. To do that, you have to be completely switched on and focussed yourself.
The lack of red ball cricket has also not helped. Where is the Sheffield Shield? That's supposed to produce Test Cricketers, but all we have seen is T20 and a few one-dayers.
Team overall is getting too old and the current state of Shield cricket is uninspiring.
We are on the decline, unless a few unexpected youngsters jump out of the ground.
The bowlers tend to be pretty good game to game but the batters (ex Head) are basically flat track bullies.
Khawaja (38) should be pensioned off. Labuschagne (30) is hopelessly out of form. Smith (35) seems to be past it. Starc (34) is all over the shop innings to innings. Lyon (37) is not ever going to do a Warne and rip thru a team. Hazlewood (33) is good but he is no McGrath. Cummins (31) is inconsistent but generally good.
We miss Green but also need a genuine bowling all-rounder who can be our Flintoff, Pollock etc. I thought Cummins might turn into that but his batting is getting worse.
My opinion only and I am sure others will have different thoughts.
Have to agree with everything you've said Badger. Depressing but true. Also we can't continually bowl using the seam while the blokes from the Sub-Continent excell in that manner.
