The coach of the All Stars Indigenous team, Neil Henry, will stage the biggest selection meeting of his career this evening when he discusses the options for the team to take on the NRL All stars at Skilled Park Stadium on February 13, 2010.
Neil will talk with fans on www.nrl.com from 7.30pm EDST (6.30pm Queensland) to discuss the final selection options as the public voting period enters its last days.
More than 16,000 fans have voted for their Indigenous All Stars team to date and voting for the public closes at midnight on November 15.
The fans are choosing sixteen positions. Preston Campbell has already been nominated as the team captain by the Rugby League Indigenous Council. The Council and Coach Neil Henry will nominate the final three positions next week with the team to be announced on November 20.
It is the first time the public has played such an integral role in selecting a team of this importance and the reaction of fans in discussing team selections with Jonathan Thurston last week suggests that Neil Henry will have some challenging discussions with his selectors tonight.
