Teddy to lead Australia at the WC

[ChookMaster]

Angus, Collins, Teddy in the squad..

[Thirteen]

Don’t know how Collins made it. Can’t string two games together to give him the opportunity to prove he’s worthy of it.

Congrats to Teddy.

[Andrew Walker]

Congratulations Teddy. How Collin’s is picked over Lodge is laughable. Guess Lodgeys card has been marked

[BTRD]

Collins ??

[zac]

i don't think collins is a big shock - he's got a history of playing well in soo and the selectors usually take that into account but lodge missing out weakens the team. it's no consolation but us going out early means that our internationals have had a chance to rest up which might help them come back fresher after the tour.
5 women chosen for the jillaroos with sammy bremner getting the nod ahead of tonegato.

Happy for Teddy, still remember watching him tear up for Italy in the centres in the 2013 World Cup.

I also remember the impact the 2013 world cup had on the start to our 2014 season. We had more players represented than any other club. Lost 4 of our opening 6 games, those hoping for a quicker start next year might need to hold your breath because we are well represented again in this world cup.

Check out this line up of Roosters who have captained Australia..not too shabby at all:

10 regular 17 players involved ( Tedesco/Crichton/Collins/Suaalii/Manu/JWH/Toops/Keary/Radley/Smith ) plus Siua (Joshia) Wong- Penrith look to have the most with 14- 13 regular 17 players involved excluding Kikau and Koroisau

9 regular 17 players involved ( Tedesco/Crichton/Collins/Suaalii/Manu/JWH/Toops/Keary/Radley) plus Siua (Joshia) Wong- Penrith look to have the most with 14- 13 regular 17 players involved excluding Kikau and Koroisau

Can throw Brandon Smith in their as part of our first choice 17 next year that will be returning to pre-season late.

I am glad they picked Collins, he can get rid of he's suspension just like JWH.
