Ennis is terrible. He offers absolutely nothing. I go for Farah, but only because I think his best can trouble QLD although I will admit to be worried about if he can produce that. Our halves have copped an absolute hammering the last few seasons but if we finally pick a hooker who can be dangerous out of dummy half it can give our halves valuable time. QLD haven't been worried one iota about Ennis, their markers just shoot out and have stopped Blues from getting on a roll by how quickly they have been able to get out to the first receiver. They'd have to at least be worried about Farah and if it holds up their markers, even if he doesn't do anything than he's already been an improvement on what Ennis can provide.
As for Buderus, he was past in 3 years ago. Can't believe people think he's been good for the Knights this year. I don't get the Hinchcliffe love either. If I was in charge what I would have done is given some game time to Maloney in CvC at hooker, he's played it before and he's one of the best supporter players in the NRL and I believe NSW best chance of beating QLD is second phase play running at a staggered defensive line. Not giving Maloney that chance and even bringing in someone like McCrone who is never going to be an Origin player was ridiculous IMO. In 2 years time, I think our own Jamie Buhrer can play that backrow/hooker option. He filled in for 20 odd minutes in a game this year for Ballin and his service from there was outstanding.
