Since Origin began in 1980, the most difficult position to fill has been Winger for NSW
Nathan Merritt is a fine club winger, but is he Origin quality , I think not. Here is a list of decent wingers, who should never have worn the sky blue.
PHIL DUKE
ROSS CONLON
MATT GEYER
ANTHONY QUINN
ERIC GROTHE JNR
JAMES MCMANUS
STEVE TURNER
NATHAN MERRITT

Have I left anybody out ?

I have massive respect for our Hazem, but he would be compulsory for this list.He was say, reserve for City Firsts material nothing more.

I was loathe to add Hasem to this list, but he was the greatest goal kicker of his era, a bit like Ross Conlon. I can however see similarities between his selection and that of Merritt. Both stalwarts.

Hazem El Masri at least scored a TRY and Kicked a Goal for NSW to win!

Uate should be considered for this
I actually am inclined to agree with you on this one. He offers so much promise, but at SOO delivers so little.

Merritt's playing well tonight, but it is against a Canberra side that has forgotten how to defend.

Don't forget Wolfman. Probably the worst of the lot.
