So hard to watch, the video is grainy and don't know whose who without team sheets. Have SA's but their guernsey makes it impossible to see the numbers on back of them with the colour tone.
 
Yeah there are definitely a few guns not in the NSW team, as shown by a few players who played very well in the GWS v Sydney Academy game on Saturday as well as some non academy players in local leagues. I have heard plenty of people talk about while it is good to watch nationals those in the know take little notice of who does and doesn't make these teams.

Out of curiosity Scots what your thoughts on how it could

Out of curiosity Scots what your thoughts on how it could work better?
To ensure a more balanced and representative pathway, I believe there’s a strong case for establishing two distinct NSW teams — one representing Country NSW and the other representing Sydney Metro. These two regions not only produce talent through very different developmental systems but also reflect distinct playing styles. A split would provide more opportunities, allow for more tailored coaching, and ultimately better serve the broader talent pool across the state.
Currently, selection appears to favour taller, more physically developed players over those who are adept at playing a more modern, dynamic style of football. This approach can sometimes come at the expense of skillful, agile players who better reflect the demands of today’s game.
While some may be familiar with each other off the field, for many, their first experience playing together is often the opening game of the championships.

Pity they can't update the scores in a more timely manner. Anyone know the result for the WA team today? is there another place for results other than the Game Day site?

Smashed ACT kept them to no score
 
Chris or Michael
Maroon is the strong team. White is the team that just lost to Vic.

Maroon is about to play SA
White has players who should be in Maroon but they pick the team from 5 games at the state carnival so they won’t always get it right.

Ryan Hutchings was shadow player for Met north until they saw him train.

Among WA’s best performers included Liam Beauclarke who booted five goals in the win over ACT while Zinzan Clark was another who had impressed. Maroon’s leading performers included Ryan Hutchings.
