[QUOTE="Alec, post: 2202004, member: 1795"] Over the last 3 years, Thurston stood up for QLD whenever the going got tough. Think back to game 3, 2006: We were behind in the 2nd half (due to horrible ref calls). Thurston was the first to lift his game and then the rest followed. With 10 minutes left, Thurston makes a linebreak, passes to Tate and the rest is history. Game 2, 2007 Scores were even for most of the match. With about 20 or so minutes left, Thurston gets the ball, runs with it enough to make Hayne run up instead of fall back and grubbers the ball to Bell (I think), which won us the match. Game 3, 2008. With Prince getting injured in like the first 10 minutes, Thurston had to play with a very inexperienced 5/8th in Hunt. Still, he managed to put up a fantastic kick for Folau to score the greatest try of the series, and then makes another break and offload to Slater which won us the series. He's arguably the greatest rep player on the planet atm, and probably the No 1 origin player. As long as Smith remains uninjured, I'd have him there every time. [/QUOTE]
