With Holmes and Mitchell in the squad Edwards is not needed as back up to Teddy. I would agree with that. The suggested squad on the whole looks good but with DCE, Hunt and Cleary as more classic 7's, if Munster were unavailable there would be an imbalance in the halves with no significant running threat. Wighton offers cover in the centre and at 6 so I would add him over Edwards.

graveyard johnny Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 with the wc just round the corner our biggest worry has to be a lot of the names been put forward for eng on this forum are either currently injured- way off form or past their peak see you later undertaker - in a while necrophile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graveyard johnny Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Selwyn Cobbo could be a good bet for the wc top try scorer if selected - just watching him scoring for fun against the knights see you later undertaker - in a while necrophile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a line breaking and tackle busting machine. Plus the highest number of errors of any NRL winger so its rocks or diamonds, but never boring.

Spotty Herbert Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 I am slightly surprised that nobody has mentioned Nicho Hynes to be in the Aussie squad on the basis that he can cover every position from 1 to7. The Oz pack can't compete with the NZ one and for once NZ has a reasonable spine (Smith, Hughes, Brown, Manu) and that combination might be enough to make up for a less inspiring three quarter line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
