Nice to see 4 Panthers in the squad

 

[MP4 - Eedz]

Haz deserved atleast that much

 

[MrCharisma]

Too many players out of position. This should be a stupid match... All because the ARL won't back down on Matt Orford. What a joke

Its not that many. Besides nowadays i think it's pretty common to find players who are more than capable of playing more than one position even at the elite level.

 

[jimmy_the_greek]

the players that play for city/country will they be playing for their clubs that week??

6 and 7 should be the NSW reps if you ask me...

Gawd i hope Hazem kicks butt

 

[Abz]

It will be great to see Hazem El Masri and Robbie Farah both on the same team - the 2 most capped Lebs in the modern game on the same team will be awsome. It will also be interesting to see how El Masri and Anasta communicate after there rivaled battle on the weekend!

 

[LG]

luke rooney in for eric grothe

 

[The Custard]

Cant see how Thompson and Waterhouse have done more than Watmough

 

[Özil]
