Pretty hard to be a selector this year, i will have a go

1.Hunt
2.Slater
3.Tait
4.Hodges
5.Inglis
6.Lockeyer
7.Thurston
14. Berrigan/Bowen

I know its a lot of players out of position but its hard, QLD should kill it for a while to come:thumbsu:

If I was you I'd have the Broncos and Storm players play separately. ie:
2. Slater
3. Inglis
4. Hodges
5. Tate (it's Tate, not Tait)

That little bit of inside knowledge players have from spending a season together could be the difference between a series loss and a win.

As for me,
1. Hunt
2. Walker/Slater/Rogers/Bell/etc (This is really the only position up for grabs imo)
3. Inglis
4. Hodges
5. Tate
6. Lockyer
7. Thurston
Reserve. Berrigan

Also, has Big Mal said anything about Hunt's possible selection at fullback this year now that he's playing halfback?

One thing is for sure, we have an embarrassment of riches out wide this year, it's a good position to be in.

Queensland's backline is going to be incredible this year look at the depth:

Matt Bowen, Karmichael Hunt, Justin Hodges, Rhys Wesser, Milton Thaiday, Billy Slater, Greg Inglis, Brent Tate, Willie Tonga, Brenton Bowen, Ashley Graham, Paul Bowman, Steve Bell, Isreal Folau, Matt Rogers, Darren Lockyer, Jonathon Thurston, Scott Prince, Shaun Berrigan.

and I'm probably forgetting a few.

Lol no chance.

QLD Backline will dominate and our forwards are still damn good. Petro, Smith, Price, Webb, Crocker, Johnson, Thiaday, Myles, Ross, Scott, Berrigan, Payne.

Bout time we dominated again

Qld are absolute specials this year. And I have never said that about a Qld Origin team before.

It's obvious Johns will return to SoO. I've been saying that ever since he retired. He is the kind of guy who would want the media to get into a frenzy as he makes his "fairy tale" return as NSW's saviour. He loves the attention. Just wait to see how the NSW media will be all over this when he returns.

I still remember how the media beat up Fittler's return. He lost his first 2 games coming back, before he finally won one. It was the greatest "fairy tale" story since Cinderella. :rolleyes:

Nothing beats Alfie's return.
