No Tate, Campbell or Wilson but Vunivalu gets a call up????

 

[rugbyAU]

no tate seems significant

yep, thought Jones was a fan of him

[LeCheese]

Some omissions aside, I’m really stoked for Flook

 

[Doritos Day]

Staniforth > Arnold

 

[Silverado]

Blake Shoupp over Gibbon? OK then

 

[Drew]

Maybe….Rhoda….was…..right????

 

[KOB1987]

Staniforth > Arnold

Note that’s richie Arnold, not Rory, right? Or is that just an intern error?

 

[Dctarget]

Confirmed Vunivalu tries and gives more than Harry Wilson

The way those selections went may have been Tom Arnold

There was talk that Rory didnt want to play

Not sure how Rory could be selected given Jones' comments about effort and intent - he turned down the chance to play for Australia, and then to push his case in Super.

 

[Froggy]

Donaldson in over Lolesio, JOC (James O'Connor) etc, someone better check Derpus for cardiac arrest!

 

[KOB1987]

You are correct.

Richie has been just as good to be fair.

 

[Marce]

Vunivalu WTF… there’s our talking point for the week.

Over Toole??? No way. I think Eddie is behind the Vunivalu's extension cause is the cheapest NRL winger he can get (if you compare with the stars of the game)

 

[Tah Man]

Wilson the real head scratcher of an omission. He's been in excellent form and Jones has repeatedly said he is after work rate.

That said not sure he has been any better than Valentini or Gleeson so perhaps just unlucky to be behind quality players

 

[Fireworks]

So what does Wilson have to do to make the squad? He leads the comp for carries, second most run metres and his work off the ball is off the charts.
