A lot of selections are in the Eye of the beholder.
Look at Brett Morris he is not in anyone's team as a Winger yet he has the best figures of any current Winger at Test level in recent times.
11 tries from 10 games 5 v NZ, 3 v Eng, 1 v PNG and 2 V France.
Compared to Ryan Hall the BWW, 6 tries from 10 games 3 v Aus, 2 v France and 1 v NZ

Both have Test careers since 2009.


Edit, I have talked myself into including Morris, Uate is too hit and miss.

There is no way I would play the best player in his position in the World out of place.
Slater is a Fullback and he is the best around.
You may play with second best Centres or Fullbacks on the wing as a utility.

i heard somewhere that inglis is actually the better fullback and when slater and inglis where at the same club the coach shifted slater to the wing to accomodate inglis at fullback.

i have seen inglis at fb for souffs and he looks superb there

Not sure where you heard this.
Slater has been the Storms first choice Fullback since he has been there, Inglis has filled in when he has been injured.

Inglis does not have the acceleration to play the game that Slater does as he is a far bigger build.

Slater was picked on the Wing for Qld for a few games early in his career.

I cant believe that people are putting Tomkins ahead of Slater, Hall as one of the wingers, Ben Westwood on the bench, Graham in at prop and Gallen as a back rower!

Slater started off in the centres at Melbourne but moved to fullback pretty early on.

He made his debut on the wing, then played a game at fb, 5 at centre then fb ever since.

Gallen is a back rower.

He only plays prop because the rep sides are stronger in the back row than front.

Tomkins & Graham are the only British players who would get into a 20 man squad for the World's best team.

Wigan.

You mean the James Graham who is in the top 6 of every single stat measured for props in the World's toughest comp?

No, why on earth would you choose him?.....
