Fair Dinkum how the hell does he get selected he's been woeful?
It just goes to show you what a waste of time City V Country is it should be scrapped.

It is in NSW best interests to try and get the bloke on form, if he finds form and could come off the bench in Origin he could give Qld huge trouble, we've all seen what the bloke can produce (pre back injury anyway)
The key is goin to be unlocking that form and hoping something clicks

Nope not sarcastic mate
Let's says Watmough, Lewis and Bird are the backrow for NSW
They need 1-2 back rowers on the bench, who is going to worry Qld more, Say a Hoffman type coming on for 20, or a Williams type ?
As I said, it is all dependent on form, but NSW need someone coming on to make a difference, Tony can be that man if on song. Ruling him out as of now wouldn't be the right selection imo
Tariq Sims would have been my man for this role but he has come back pretty slowly from his leg issues so give him another year

I think its highly improbable that considering his club form, somehow it might improve by selection to this rep game.
There are just so many reasons why his selection is unwise.
* If the structures around him at the dogs arent settling him into base levels of consistency then one city-country game isnt going to help. It may well hinder.
* T-Rex struggles when the speed of the game overtakes him & even the speed of his teammates. Even this minor rep game will do it too him.
* Different coach. Different input requirements. Different support players around him. He wont come good with all this going on.
I understand NSWs need, but reaching into the cupboard hoping for a form reversing T-Rex is a massive massive gamble, IMO.

The Burgess DVD idea is good
