Yeah gotta agree with Blue, but I'll try and do it in a more coherent manner. Fainga'a is having a great year, and to be honest we lack any genuine outside centers (with Rob Horne injured). But we seem to forget how good Ashley-Cooper was last year. His average form can be based heavily on...

I didn't mind how Coridas played, but he is more of a 6 then a 7 by the looks of things. I'm not sure why Shatz isn't being considered for 7, because he did well there last year when he needed too, I was really suprised he didn't even come off the bench.

Good to see Rocket Rod back. Had a strong feeling Dallan Murphy was gonna get a call up. Interesting to see if Gill or Coridas starts. I hope it is Gill, Coridas was only meant to be there to play while Liam got over jet-lag, he has been the number 2 openside all season.

On the foxsports website they are saying he has signed with the force for one year, but it wont be announced untill he works out his ARU contract

I'd just like to point out last year they won a premiership, and the year before they were one victory away from winning.....just sayin

I thought Simmons and Cooper were good actually, the players around Cooper made him look bad

Mitchell just needs to get a bit more time in premier grade i think, he's been in and out for two years (due to the strength of Brothers back three). He is bloody quick though, scores some freakish tries

Personally I think they need to recruit/develop some more Australian players, because don't they lose their overseas players after next year (about 10 players i think)? Bowside mentioned Jono Lance and Matt Brandon, i could not agree more, both highly talented fly halfs that should be playing...

Not sure why this is even being mentioned, Tapuai and Chambers are both fit??

I forgot about him, he was one of the best fullbacks in Europe this season. If the Islander countries actually got all possible players, surley they'd be a lot better then teams like italy,wales and scotland

Shame RUpeni Caucau wasn't selected, he has been playing so good for Toulouse. What happened to Nalaga from Clermont as well?

He spends half the game out there anyway!

What did Hoiles even do to himself? Did he play pre-season at all?

Personally I'd have Simmons over Wykes. Whilst Chapman was goof, I thought Hodgson was outstanding

3- The Force Backrow

I stand corrected haha. French season just finished....maybe some of his connections with Stade Francais? OR BRING BACK LATHO!!! hahaha

I don't think he would to be honest, not like the QRU has enough money anyway.

I think he is the second best 13 in the country, but not quite good enough to be in the 22 Genia,Cooper,Ioane, Barnes,AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper),O'Connor,Beale Bench: Burgess, Giteau, Shepherd

I highly doubt Link will take such a risk. Going through the Reds full-time and Academy contracts, the only outside backs that could be selected (not injured or U20's), is Mitch Felsman (Brothers) and Tevita Kuridrani (Uni). Maybe they will send an SOS to Sitauti and Simon Morahan to bring...

You realise Toua is out for the season, Sitauti is in Italy for the U20's and why on earth would they have 6 forwards on the bench? You didnt even include shipperley? Won't be suprised to see some academy players getting a run this week...
