Theres been a poll on the SMH RugbyHeaven site for a couple of weeks now asking
Who should be the Wallabies fullback in Chris Latham's absence?
and the options are
Mark Gerrard
Peter Hewat
Drew Mitchell
Clinton Schifcofske
Mat Rogers
I guess that means nobody has realised that Mitchell has moved to the west!
Wheres Shep? Even Connolly seems to be implying he's the Wallabies #2 choice and he performed well in the "A" team on the Euro tour.
Incidentally Hewats winniing with 39% of the vote! Bloody Typical!

i think matty rogers is a waste of a vote.
I think Peter Hewat is a waste of a vote too!
"Bloody oath we did!"
Nathan Sharpe, Legend.
even more stupid is that its been up for weeks and no one has bothered to make some obvious changes to the selections available
I guess you missed the obvious flaw, Mat Rogers is GooooOOOOOOOooone.Originally Posted by WF2006

Wallabies can come From the west you know
No Sage, just that it was obvious![]()

My point exactly Krusher!
It seems that the Sydney Morning Herald, when compiling this poll left out Shep. I was playing on the fact that they DID include Mitchell and must have thought he was still an eastern stater! (because the left hand side of Oz doesn't truly exist to these guys!)
PS thanks to whoever fixed up my post and inserted the picture of the poll
PPS - yeah I thought the fact that they'd rather put a retirie on the poll (Rogers) rather than the number 2 choice (Shep) was a little obvious.
PPPS - bring on Manu Samoa!!
PPPPS- It was Coach, our fountain of all things helpful and nice...except on chat nights
WF2006 (and others), to insert the photos you need to look at the top bar above your new message (or "Go Advanced" message) where you will see a red square icon with a sort of white lined arrow. If you click on this it goes to a pop up window that allows you to browse for the required photo and then upload. Once it has uploaded it will give you an URL to copy and paste across to where you want to place the photo in your message.
There may be a more techo version than that, but that's what works for this dumb bum![]()

I'm still failing to see just what this thread is about? You're saying it's eastern state bias, even though Mitchell's included, then you say that they mustn't be aware that Mitchell's moved west?
You crazy...
Crazy - yes - theres no denying it.![]()
My point however is that there is an extreme Eastern States bias in excluding Shep from the poll as even Connolly seems to imply he's our #2 fullback.
My crack regarding Mitchell was more a limited attempt at irony (ie due to the extreme bias, its relatively amazing that they actually recognised another westerner at all and that maybe they didn't realise that he'd moved!)
Catch up Sage!
Drew was included coz they forgot he's sogned up with teh Force (not played for them yet)
Sheps wasn't included coz he does play for the Force (there's no forgetting that after last season)
There is no way we could possibly assume there is a working brain over at the SMH with the inclusion of Rogers, the SMH is giving NSW a bad rep as being dumber than Dunning ...
Dear Lord, if you give us back Johnny Cash, we'll give you Justin Bieber.
Yeah that's cool, just don't see why all Easterners have to be labelled that way.
Rogers has more chance of making the Wallabies squad than Mitchell though.
