Cronulla star Nicho Hynes looks set to tick off another item on his rugby league bucket list – an Australian Test debut.
Nicho Hynes is closing in on a debut for the Kangaroos – and Mal Meninga has several ideas on how to best use him in a Test game to avoid a repeat of the scenes in Adelaide during Origin I earlier this year., but he and prop Tom Flegler look set to pull on the green and gold for the first time against New Zealand next Saturday.
Kangaroos coach Meninga said that if Hynes did get the nod for the AAMI Park clash, he would know what to expect before he ran out. Several players went into the Samoa game feeling the physical effects of a long NRL season, and they could yet be rested for the New Zealand clash.Should the Kiwis defeat Samoa on Saturday night at Eden Park, it will mean Australia and Michael Maguire’s men clash two weeks in a row, with the Pacific Championships final in Hamilton on November 4.
