1. Slater
2. Hayne/Boyd
3. Inglis/Hayne (depending on Inglis's availability)
4. Hodges
5. Folau
6. Lockyer
7. Thurston
8. Price
9. Smith
10. Civoniceva
11. Watmough
12. Creagh
13. Gallen

14. Gidley
15. Thaiday
16. O'Donnell
17. Taylor (bolter)

18. Soward

19. Poore
20. Crocker
21. Hannant
22. J. Morris

Squad i would like to see, but probably won't get picked;

1. Hayne
2. Folau
3. Hodges
4. Inglis
5. Morris (brett)
6. Lockyer
7. Thurston
8. Hannant
9. Smith
10.Poore
11.Creagh
12.Watmaugh
13.Gallen

14.Gidley
15.Crocker
16.Weyman
17.Taylor

18.Boyd
19.Farrah
20.O'Donnell
21.Perry
22.White(deserves to be rewarded for that punch)

Why i ommitted certain players;

Steve Price - soft and past his use by date. Also out injured every seccond game making him a liabililty in the squad as seen in the World cup Last season

Civo - assuming he is injured and won't be fit

Slater- has been disgracful this season. does not deserve to get anywhere near a kangeroos jumper. also a massive liabililty as proven over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

Avged 24 tackles 9.5 hit ups in the 2 origins he played, hardly a disappearing act

Honestly? I'd pick Myles on the bench, I'd pick Poore, and I'd pick Price (not sure when was the last time a player was ommitted because they were fit - imagine the Kiwis leaving out Marshall on the basis that he may GET injured), and even Kite did an ok job in Origin 1 - 12 runs for 94 metres.

Hell, Shillington got through 12 hit ups for 80 minutes in Origin 3.

Ben Cziwolski once did 15 hit ups while playing for the Rockhampton Rockets.

I'd pick him.

I am unable to pick a Australia side anymore...

I will never pick Hayne and Jennings because they are members of other nations - as per the 2008 WC - and they should still be there to contest the Sth Pacific Cup this year for the right to play Australia, NZ and England in the 2010 4 Nations...

So, can I pick a Australian side without these 2...??

I was going to call them clowns for agreeing to swap, but it's actually the fault of the RLIF which has the spine of a Liberal leader..
