Eels miss out on City/Country
Parramatta's ordinary performance against the Cowboys has seen not one of our players selected to in either the City or Country representative teams.
Only Nathan Hindmarsh then is in contention for the NSW State of Origin teams. Players who represented Australia in the ANZAC day test have not been selected in the City/Country sides and would appear to be automatic State of Origin selections.
The Broncos and the Warriors, who have teams made up predominantely of Queenslanders and New Zealanders respectively, are the only other teams not to have a representative in the match.
The Sydney Morning Herald had predicted that both Adam Dykes and Eric Grothe were strong chances for City.
