I thought they were going with one player from each club

I like this voting.  Pick all the players from the other clubs so they can risk injury in a meaningless game.

Obviously the "Preston Campbell is an automatic selection as he is Captain." was a bit too subtle for you Fluff

I notice John Sutton isn't on the list. Doesn't he consider himself indigenous ?

My 10 year old wants the All stars to win and has picked George Rose at fullback and Thurston in the front row.
