Yeah—Rappy is coaching both but everything will be over for both the NSW Colts and the Gen Blue team by the end of March, or near enough; so it won't interfere too much with his Newington stuff.
I don't want to convince you of anything tc, but it's probably the wrong question.
I was more concerned about the Argentine trial game being a missed opportunity, surely the selectors have a pretty good idea of what the final team will be, even allowing for several extra reserves, it's not as if these players don't have some solid form. There is only 3 weeks before the national comp, and they are not playing this Sat.
So I see it as a missed opportunity not to play the best 15, or as close as possible, for a full 80, get the combos going etc, you did say yourself, in your opinion (which I agree with) that the majority of the 2nd 1/2 team probably won't advance. Things have moved on considerably since, and the blog answered several questions, looking forward to the next game.
