NSW half backs? : Sun Mar 29, 2009 11:54 am  

Who will it be?

I think Campese will be at 6 but who will play 7?

Wallace? Orford? Barrett?

I think the halves should come from those four. Barrett being there on reputation only at the moment. Watching Pearce over the next weeks.

Bit too young IMO couple of years and he should be NSW 7

I would love to see Barrett play origin again but I'm being slightly biased as a Wigan fan

wallace has looked good so far, sadly looks like barrett will be out for a while after todays injury.

Pearce IMO will partner Campese.

wallace.

clearly the standout.

pearce has been poor in a poor roosters side, gidley can play anywhere

sutton was mentioned as a 6 but i dont rate him there,

campese as a far better option.

and compare it to the list of queensland halves :

thurston, lockyer, prince, cronk etc etc etc

barrett was taken from the field in a stretcher but his form so far has been really good.

orford needs to get his team winning to be a chance

a wildcard could be barrett at 7 and campese at 6.

barrett has done well at 7 from nsw before, and also a 6 so he would also be a strong chance

The back up would probably be the NSW pairing

Campese in with a chance though

Campese definately deserves a shot at 6 and will do.
IMO it will be Campese and Wallace.

I reckon also that it will be either Campese & Wallace or Barrett & Wallace.

Wallace has been on fire over the past couple of games. I would have Anasta either at Lock or on the bench however we may have too many quality backrowers so he may be squeezed out altogether.
