I'm with you, good selection.
 
It's interesting that they say Taylor is out of favour, yet he had a powerful game against the cowboys..
 
And he backed it up with an equally poor showing against the Raiders, consistency in performance is important and something he needs to work on and sending him a message of that to him is in his best interests, Taylor while a big talent hasn't earnt his right of being a certainty in the side, in saying that I would still select him against the Panthers, we need to resolve the foward power issues we are currently having (that existed in the Raiders game as well), Ben Hannant will be a welcomed return thats for sure.
 
I am with GC stick him on the bench, whats the worst that could happen. We have had thaiday and carlaw playing inconsistent off it for years and still managed and with his talent the more experience he gets in the big time the better.
 
I would like to see:

Hunt
Boyd - I have been a supporter of yours Darius but this is a big year for you mate - we have options this year unlike past years
Hodges
Michaels
Robinson - Sounds like he could be the goods
Locky
Wallace
Hannant
Ennis - Hope he is fit - I would like to see him get a decent crack at hooker fully fit
Clinton
Simms
Parker
Carroll

Stagg
Taylor
Thaiday
Marsh
 
if that side takes the field in round 1 I'd be very surprised. Our 6 and 7 haven't exactly had the ideal preparation... the first 5 rounds will be their trials
 
Sounds like Robinson will get a run first game my team would be

1. HUNT
2. HEWITT
3. HODGES
4. MICHAELS
5. ROBINSON
6. LOCKYER
7. WALLACE
8. CLINTON
9. MARSH
10. HANNANT (IF FIT) OR TAYLOR
11. PARKER
12. THAIDAY
13. CARROLL

14. STAGG
15. TAYLOR
16. SIMMS
17. ENNIS
 
1. Hunt
2. Robinson
3. Hodges
4. Michaels
5. Hewitt (enough experience to replace Boyd for mine)
6. Lockyer
7. Wallace
8. Clinton
9. Ennis
10. Hannant
11. Parker
12. Thaiday
13. Eastwood

14. Carroll
15. Sims
16. Taylor
17. Marsh
 
I don't understand why people put Ennis on the bench and Marsh as starting hooker...
Marsh is a lot more agile, and would be greter in the back end of both halves, when the opposition forwards are tired, by doing constant dummy half sprints. Ennis on the other hand, is a lot more creative and can help the teams structure in the earlier stages of both halves...
 
I take it it's all but a done deal regarding Robinson? In that case i'll make room for him.

1. Hunt
2. Robinson
3. Michaels
4. Hodges
5. Boyd
6. Lockyer
7. Wallace
8. Hannant
9. Ennis
10. Clinton
11. Parker
12. Stagg
13. Carroll

14. Thaiday
15. Taylor
16. Sims
17. Marsh

Eastwood and a couple of others unlucky. I like Marsh off the bench more than Ennis, and i'd prefer a tackling machine like Stagg to start also.
 
01. Hunt
02. Robinson
03. Hodges
04. Michaels
05. Boyd
06. Lockyer
07. Wallace
08. Hannant
09. Ennis
10. Clinton
11. Parker
12. Eastwood
13. Stagg (we need him now more than ever, I think he's set for a good year)

14. Marsh
15. Sims
16. Carroll
17. Thaiday

I'd like to have Taylor but he's probably not going to be there in Round One anyway..
