Paea and Buddy Gordon obviously made themselves unavailable then? Rocky Trimarchi as well? Any word on how that has gone down with the Group - i.e. suspensions etc?

Picton have the best back line in the comp how did only 2 get selected? Crouch has been in outstanding form and I consider McCauley the best winger in the group so hard to argue with it? TC reports Crouch broke his thumb so Mat Brassington straight into the side? Interesting side to say the least.
Cashmere, Paea, Buddy, Trimarchi, Orana's main man (cant remember the spelling), Don Thompson, Chris Young, Frazer M and Ryan Borg all left out, overlooked or unavailable... Interesting

Interesting The comp ain't that strong where we have specialist wingers, he might be the best winger in the group but with the quality outside backs the group has I would think one of them would have got the nod, like baker not usually a winger but hsrd to leave out, agree with you about some of the players not selected, has conlon played a game this year?

Can't argue with Macauley. He is the best player (forget club position) to play on the wing in the group team. Extremely hard to tackle. He's almost the first back I'd pick. Glad they picked Letty at fullback. It's his best position and guarantees his involvement. Forget about anyone else who was not picked. If Chris Young was simply overlooked than I have zero faith in selectors/coaches. Best forward in the comp. Also, I would have Conlon there. He was strong against Picton in a well beaten team.

I thought for sure he must have been injured or ddnt wanna play, unbelievable he wasn't picked!

I didn't think players were allowed to 'opt out'. Youngy is a great guy and if he doesn't want to play, the Picton club is better off. I'd personally love to see how well he could perform in a classy team like that and how far he can go in the rep scene. What about Cashmere, Gordon, Paea? Then again there must be some opting out going on.

I'm pretty sure it was the same with Cashmere, and being that Reeves is an ex NRL Player, I'm sure he sympathises with him. I don't know about the Thirlmere boys, but you'd think they'd be in the same boat. All in all our side is a lot weaker than it could've been.

Because they've played at the top level so they don't have to represent the comp they play in now? Wat about blokes like Letty, flanno even gallant last year all happy to represent the group all played nrl

No, I haven't heard that, but that's not to say it's not true. I've only seen him in passing over the last couple weeks, so haven't spoken to him in any great depth.

Hahahaha Sammy Campbell I know!! It just dawned on me! I knew something wasn't right and it just came to me, so I thought I'd better get on here and correct myself before you do. Young Conlon goes good, but Sam Campbell is who I meant. I'd have him in there.

THE Mittagong Lions have again proved they have plenty of talent in their ranks with four players selected in the senior Group 6 representative side.
First grade coach Scott Borg, Warwick Carter, Robbie Payne and Matt Thorpe have all been selected for the second year in a row.
Last year only Carter and Payne played in the Group 6 matches after the other two pulled out.
Borg has yet to play a match this season due to injury and said he was surprised to have gained selection again.
“The other boys deserve their selection so good on them,” he said.
Group 6 will take on Group 7 on May 17 at Albion Park.
From that match a combined side will be selected to progress to the next level.
But it will a tough challenge for the Group 6 team, with Group 7 the CRL tier two champions in 2013.
But Borg was confident Group 6 would perform well and Mittagong players would progress to the next level.
“It’s a pretty strong side. With some of the players that are left out you can see how strong it is.
"We’d be pretty confident but it just depends on how the team gel and what attitude they go into the game with.”
