There is no way known that Prince will get the Australian halfback spot ahead of Thurston, and nor should he in my opinion. While Prince is a fine player and has been going great guns with the Titans, Thurston is the incumbent and is starting to run into some real form, as he showed against the Warriors on the weekend. When fully fit and in form I believe he is easily the best halfback going around - it would be great to see him in a Sharkies jersey but I can't see any way that he will be leaving Townsville, especially with Matty Bowen having recently signed a longterm contract extension.
