Between now and May next year, beg, threaten, or blackmail your coach into giving you a run at five-eighth, wing, centre, lock or anywhere else for that matter. The more positions the better.

If you want any chance of making the QLD team, you've got to become a "utility player."

I'd say Sing offers more as a winger than Wesser or Shifcofske... and is a lot more proven than the others in this position. He's been sensational this year.

Can't agree. Sing has had two pretty good games for QLD with limited opportunities.
