Scott Prince or Jonathon Thurston for the next test match ? : Fri Apr 17, 2009 11:01 am  

Personally i think Scott Prince deserves his chance as the Kangaroos 7 for the next test match, Jonathon Thurston seems to be getting more and more frustrated at the Cowboys and thats rubbing off on his game. Why he stays at the Crapboys is beyond me, he must be on a mega bucks contract to not want a move anywhere else. He must have one of the strongest backs in world rugby to carry that lot week every week.

I still think he deserves his place in the Aussie and Origin teams. Look at origin, they've won 3 in a row with him so why change it?
I know the Cowboys have been poor and so has JT but he's still adjusting to the new roll and i can understand why the coach is doing it, say if Thurston gets injured they wouldn't know what to do so he's trying to get the rest of the team to take responsability.
As much as i rate Scotty Prince i'd stick with Thurston.

Why Prince. Queensland have been winning with JT at 7 so why change it ?

And has performed admirably.

Thurston for halfback.

Prince will just have to wait a year or so for Lockyer to retire. Apparently Prince has another 5 years left in him.

Exactly what i think, you dont change a winning side unless you have to.
