Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2629406, member: 1899"] I agree with a lot of those selections and it's very close to the squad I was thinking of a few posts ago. The only difference is that I didn't have Hoffman, Lawrence or Mason. The way I had it set out, I tried to replace players with players who filled similar roles and warranted selection. So in this case, with Billy Slater out, instead of replacing him with a prop forward - I brought in Anthony Milford who is not only very gifted at the back but can also play in the halves if the Australians are in a bind. Hoffman for Lewis is a no-brainer. I wanted to name Guerra assuming that I had yet to find a replacement for Lewis, but Hoffman is basically the same fit, has rep. experience and in fairness to him has been in very good form this year. Now it's just a question of who comes into replace James Tamou. That's a really tough decision to make since the Kangaroos are really light on props and I already have McGuire & Woods selected to be blooded. You know who I'd throw in? I didn't name him initially but Dylan Napa for the Sydney Roosters strikes me as a big game player who relishes the physical battle up-front and between him, Klemmer, Mason & Lawrence I'd have to give him the nod. Now go and watch them select somebody stupid like Tony Williams or Chris McQueen as the token premiership blow-in. [/QUOTE]
