You'll notice that Farah wasn't given a spot this time around though (nor was Gallen obviously). Your point is entirely valid - and exactly why I wish they'd stop picking the same guy who can't get it done.
Gallen would have been the first picked if he hadn't retired.
Farah has been playing off the bench some weeks for Souths and his form has been shite.
Pearce is actually playing good football.
