Australian World Cup train-on-squad

[Jezza]

Thusrston, Lockyer, Buderus, Smith, Mason, Hindmarsh, Price, Hodges to name a few will be in the 25 man squad for sure. Only concern is Darren Lockyers injuries.

[RLfan]

If everybody is fit and still playing:

1. Hunt
2. King
3. Hodges
4. Gasnier
5. Inglis
6. Lockyer
7. Thurston
8. Civoniceva
9. Smith
10. Mason
11. O'Donnell
12. Hindmarsh
13. Ryan

14. Bowen
15. Webb
16. Bailey
17. Hoffman

18. Prince
19. Creagh
20. Slater
21. Mateo
22. Buderus
23. Kaufusi
24. Bird
25. Clinton

I tried to include a few surprises and some rookies as we usually see in these squads.

[Jezza]

anyone else want to name a team??

[Dakink]

1. Hunt
2. King
3. Hodges
4. Gasnier
5. Inglis
6. Lockyer

18. Prince
19. Creagh
20. Slater
21. Mateo
22. Buderus
23. Kaufusi

I like that bar swap Mason to 12. Put Steve Price up front and put either Hindmarsh or Ryles instead of Clinton.

10. Petero
11. O'Donnell
12. Mason
13. Johnson - don't know how anyone can honestly class Ryan over Johnson! Ryan is past his use by as far as I'm concerned

14. Farah

16. Carroll
17. Bailey

18. Prince
19. Ryan
20. Bird
21. O'Meley

Yeah. Thanks Dakink forgot about Pricey, and I just have a feeling Clinton will have a big year in 08.

[Jezza]

i wonder if Farah could secure a bench spot ahead of Buderus because Smith is more likely to get 9

[Jezza]

I don't think Clinton will be in the side.

[DIEHARD]

I think Cam Smith will be in the Kangaroos for a long time.

Definitely World Cup member aside from injury.

[Jezza]

A definite starter at number 9 I think because as far as I am concerned Buderus is gone. But Farah could somehow overtake Smith from now to then. It's not impossible because Farah is a champion player and was extremely unlucky to miss out of origin this year. But Smith has displayed a lot of his talent in this years origin which is hard to top.

Yea we might have a S Walters v Elias situation in the future between Smith and Farah.

[Jezza]

agree

[RLfan]

Haha yeah a QLDer vs. a Lebanese born NSWmen that played for the Tigers just like Walters & Elias.

[Jezza]
