Man, it's going to be good having Crocker back. One of my favourite players, when we were going through that uninspiring period, he was the standout and wore the passion on his sleeve. Should be next captain after Lockyer retires.
yeh i agree to an extent, although Cameron Smith is the stand out for the captaincy, Thurston is a flawed genius, much like Johns, Smith really has all the attributes for a great captan... Crocker would lift with the captaincy, but he probably doesnt need the responsibility...

The only position i'd consider Bowen for is fullback, he's shown he's not an impact player off the bench as such but theres a 0% chance in my books that he will get Hunt's spot...
Between Hunt, Slater, Bowen and even Wesser, Bowen is the worst defensively of the lot. Don't see a lot of Slater or Wesser, but from what I saw on Friday night Slater's defence seems to have improved. For once I don't want to be in the selector's chair.

Hunt is the #1 s far as im concerned, Slater is a 90% chance of a wing spot, Wesser will need a lot of luck and Bowen well is more of a chance but still i dont think we will see him game 1

True, but I see Crocker in the Tallis mold. Even though the results didn't show on the field when Tallis was QLD captain, because the NSW side was just so much better (and our selectors were shocking) he lifted to another level, something I think Crocker would do.

Yeah, AFAIC, Hunt should be wearing the 1. But, I've been burnt by these selectors too many times before.

With the stregth of fullbacks we have I don't know why you'd want to move Lockyer there, considering 5/8 isn't our strongest position atm. Lockyer said he's likely to retire after the WC next year, which means Prince doesn't have to wait long until he's back in the maroon.

God i hate the selectors. No raiders players in City/Country!! I was expecting at least Alan Tongue to get selected.

Phil Graham is not a qld ffs, even had him listed as one in the big league last week and vautin on the footy show always craps on about him.

He is from tamworth and is most definitely not a qlder...
