I'm not saying it's the right decision, but maybe Wane sees Oledzki as a starting prop, not an impact prop. He seems to see Burgess and Cooper as impact props.

No, games like these if he were picked would improve him as a player. |

Absolutely, testing himself against the best forwards in the World will make him a better player, sitting in the stands watching won’t.
Mike Cooper must have really ripped up Super League this year to be selected ahead of him, I must have missed those Warrington games, as must Powell who thought he wasn’t good enough for the 11th placed side. |

Australia Ease Into The Semi-Finals With Win Over Lebanon
The Men´s World Cup entered the quarter final stages which what appeared, on paper, to be the most one-sided of the four games as Australia took on Lebanon at the John Smith´s Stadium in Huddersfield on Friday night.
Australia were handicapped by forty-four points on the coupon, a loss unthinkable and you could get odds of 40/1+ on The Cedars springing a surprise and eliminating a Kangaroos side which coach Meninga had stated was his first choice starting thirteen.
To create the close spectacle that people now craved from the World Cup it would need to be a night where everything went right for Lebanon while the Australians had a very bad night at the office. The cold weather and English referee Chris Kendall were a couple of unknowns thrown into the equation.

I’m still not sure whether Mik is 100% fit after his late season shoulder injury.
I think he needs to improve a bit next year; he has been overplayed at Leeds for years and he will do better with some support from other players in the pack.
Don’t overly rate Cooper but Mik could make his case stronger too.

Depends. It won't if he believes the blue and amber hype that he ought to be a shoo-in. But if he recognises he needs to stand out better against all SL packs then he'll be better placed to make that step up against the best in the world in years to come. Might sound harsh but there's still more he needs to do imo.
That said, if Cooper's all that's keeping him out of a place in the 17 he may yet get his chance this WC. |
