Pick your Kangaroos squad

Australia needs your help.

Tim Sheens's men are gearing up for the Anzac Test and there's plenty of headaches to be worked out at the selection table.

The Kangaroos were in stellar form to easily account for the Kiwis last time the two sides met, getting home 20-12 in Townsville to lift the trans-Tasman trophy in October.

But a new NRL season has started since and while many of the current internationals are playing as if they never had an off-season, there are plenty of others who have struggled to get out of first gear.

In a World Cup year, there's also considerations other than just the result of a one-off Test to think about.

Should Sheens take a risk on blooding some young stars to give them a chance with the World Cup and future internationals in mind?

Or should incumbency rule as it often does when it comes to picking the Australian rep team?

Whether or not Sheens sticks with the bulk of the side that last ran out for the Kangaroos, Canterbury-Bankstown recruit Tony Williams is under enormous pressure.

Knowing how threatening he can be, particularly when he's used as an impact player off the bench, should T-Rex stay in the side or should he make way for the likes of Matt Gillett or Anthony Watmough?

Who should partner Greg Inglis in the centres, given Justin Hodges continues to struggle with injuries and Josh Morris made a good fist of it as his replacement last time out.

There are a whole host of choices such as these and we're giving you the chance to be chief selector for the day.

To help you, here's the Kangaroos side that ran out for last year's end of season Test:

Billy Slater, Darius Boyd, Greg Inglis, Josh Morris, Brett Morris, Johnathan Thurston, Cooper Cronk, Matt Scott, Cameron Smith (c), James Tamou, Greg Bird, Paul Gallen, Nate Myles. Interchange: Robbie Farah, Ryan Hoffman, David Shillington, Tony Williams.
