The four nations are over so we might as well get on with some good old pre-season threads! You have every player in the world at your disposal to play against Mars. Who would make your team? Here's mine (although I don't watch a lot of NRL so it's mainly based on origin and four nations):
1. Slater
2. Nightingale
3. Tate
4. Inglis
5. Folau
6. Lockyer
7. Thurston
8. Graham
9. Smith
10. Blair
11. Thaiday
12. Burgess
13. O'Loughlin
14. Morley
15. Marshall
16. Peacock
17. Kenny-Dowell
Probably too many English players in there and not enough Kiwis to be fair but I think we have good forwards, it's the backs and half backs that let us down.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

Can't believe anyone would pick Thaiday in a world 13??
There are far better players out there.

Lockers has always given a good account of himself on the international level even in losing sides (not including when he got picked at 6, which was stupid). I didn't see anything from the forwards on the other sides that made me think they were astronomically better than ours, the backs and halves were a world apart though. Didn't Sheen even admit our forwards were on top of theirs after the Aus game? |
