Issac Luke 10. James Tamou 11. Feleti Mateo 12. Frank Pritchard 13. Adam Blair Not a fan of Kiwis. I'm a fan of Hoffman but the carry on about him at fullback is ridiculous. The guy simply isn't good enough to cut it at this level in that position. Nightingale is treated like one of the best wingers in the world when really he's just a solid over-achiever. Matai is a very handy club player but I don't think he's one of the best centres in the world. Always seems to get exposed in test matches. Coming up with centres is tough so I'll stick with an old favourite. Whenever Lawrence has a good game you can count on a bunch of his fans coming out of the wood work hailing him as a Test centre even when he isn't ready. I listed O'Neil because he came extremely close to making his Origin debut despite being extremely soft. It's a shame, because he has the ability but he just comes across as an athlete as opposed to a genuine footy player. Media still treats Campese as if he's the saviour despite being a passenger for years now. Kidley is an easy pick. Automatic selection in any representative side even when he doesn't deserve to be and more often than not gets in the Knights way. If Bennett wants the Knights to succeed he needs to chop him. Fui is just a gimmick these days. Luke is hailed as one of the best hookers in the game when really he's just one dimensional. That dimension is very good don't get me wrong but he can be contained fairly easily. A lot of people have considered Tamou a representative mainstay since early last season but he's got a lot of deficiencies that need to be addressed and shouldn't feature. There always seems to be at least one person who calls for Mateo as a bench selection for Origin. Said it before, Feleti is just too lazy at that level. Could have gone with T-Rex or a host of others but went with Pritchard because he still seems to get this free pass from the media despite being ordinary for years now. Blair is another gimme.
