Hindmarsh touted as possible Test selection
The chorus suggesting Australian selectors should have another look at Nathan Hindmarsh has been getting louder and louder over the last 24 hours.
An AAP report said that selectors "were given more food for thought when Parramatta second rower Nathan Hindmarsh put his hand up for selection."
"Hindmarsh wasn't named in a preliminary 25-man squad by selectors two weeks ago but forced his way into calculations with his commanding performance in the Eels' 41-20 win over South Sydney at Parramatta Stadium on Monday.
"Newcastle's Ben Kennedy is a certain selection in the Australian second row while St George Illawarra's Shaun Timmins seems the likely option at lock.
"That leaves Hindmarsh, Michael Crocker and Bryan Fletcher - who played well for Souths on Monday - vying for the vacant spot in the second row alongside Kennedy.
