Well it only took three months and 25 stages of voting, but the 2010 NRL All Stars team has finally been announced.
Over 50,000 fans took part in the voting process which I think needs to be simplified and streamlined the next time around.
The squad includes a players from every NRL team as well as the Australian and New Zealand Captains and Vice Captains.
They will take on an Aboriginals All Star team on the Gold Coast.
The game is played in a couple of weeks time and will basically be the first game of the entire Australian Rugby League season.
Anyway the team is:
The Official 2010 All Star Team
Billy Slater (Melbourne)
Israel Folau (Brisbane)
Michael Jennings (Penrith)
Matt Cooper (St George Illawarra)
Manu Vatuvei (New Zealand)
Darren Lockyer (Brisbane)
Benji Marshall (Wests Tigers)
Adam Blair (Melbourne)
Cameron Smith (Melbourne)
Dave Taylor (South Sydney)
Anthony Watmough (Manly)
Gareth Ellis (Wests Tigers)
Luke O'Donnell (North Queensland)
Kurt Gidley (Newcastle)
Anthony Tupou (Cronulla)
Nate Myles (Sydney Roosters)
Alan Tongue (Canberra)
Luke Bailey (Gold Coast)
Josh Morris (Canterbury)
Jarryd Hayne (Parramatta)
I'll be interested to see if any players withdraw from the side in the lead up to the match. That will be a big indicator as to how the players and their NRL clubs view the importance of this game.
League Freak 01/08/2010 04:11 Ridiculously, it all resets after every World Cup. Or the WC doesn't count. One of the two.
fazerino 30/07/2010 06:46 Ref Willie Manu. Didn't Hayne play for Fiji in 2008 WC then tour with the Kangaroos 2009??
League Freak 21/07/2010 03:27 Solid buys. Finch is a handy play maker, Lima a good prop. Hoffman has had injury probs though.
wiz66 20/07/2010 22:34 Lima, Hoffman and Finch signed for Wigan next season back with Mcquire good buys or not
League Freak 03/04/2010 04:05 People like you keep my fires burning. That and the Deep Heat I rub into my genitals.
john 02/04/2010 15:12 very funny,you nearly had me, keep up the garbage you prick
League Freak 01/04/2010 01:39 Hes not bad. Good mobility, gets stuck in. Doesn't mind playing in the middle of the field, unlike Gareth Ellis!
wiz66 31/03/2010 23:29 Freak - Have you seen and what do you make of young Flanagan that signed for the West Tigers from Wigan at the end of last year
League Freak 06/11/2009 02:13 Rich backers, the exchange rate and relaxed salary cap monitoring.
fazerino 06/11/2009 01:03 Fair enough, so why does SuperLeague have more cash than NRL? (if it's only played in grotty Northern towns in England?)
League Freak 03/11/2009 23:21 A Nation Comp means a bigger TV deal and bigger sponsorships. The NRL's deals are smaller because they don't have the national reach on a weekly basis.
fazerino 03/11/2009 07:24 Freak- why does AFL have more cash to lure players from league when there is absolutely no international scene?
League Freak 06/10/2009 22:14 To be honest all I know about him is that he is an assistant coach at Melbourne. He should be pretty good though.
wiz66 06/10/2009 15:28 Freak - what is the form of Micheal Mcguire who is supposed to be coming to replace Noble at Wigan as coach
League Freak 12/08/2009 13:09 You know, they can blame Smith all they want, they are just playing dumb, soft football.
NEWCASTLE 09/08/2009 21:58 I dont want to talk about how awful the knights have been playing lately its like they have lost all hope
League Freak 26/07/2009 22:29 Saw a bit of him against Leeds, he played well!
wiz66 26/07/2009 18:28 Seems Kris Rads has been coaching his full back play at Wigan to great effect
wiz66 26/07/2009 18:26 Cameron Phelps is turning into one of the best imports in SL at the moment
NEWCASTLE 22/07/2009 11:02 I bet newcastle are gonig fall back to their old culture next year.
