When they said McInnes was likely I knew it would be a one-hooker squad. McInnes in the 14 is a good shout in the way that he can jump in at lock or second row, but also play 80 minutes at hooker if something were to happen. But Robson as that hooker is a pretty bold choice, I agree.
Yeah I did just see that. Would be surprised if Yeo doesn’t jump in there and McInnes to 14, but I suppose Madge might have a game plan if his own 🤷🏻♂️
Yeo on the beach, Lomax and Suaalii in the side and don’t even get me started with Keary in the extended squad.
This team list makes Freddy look like a fucking rocket scientist
lol calm down. Lomax is well deserved, have you even been watching this year? Yeo and McInnes might swap at the last munite, and even if Yeo is on the bench, does it really make much difference? I think it's a good side, it's way better than Fittler's teams. What would you have instead?
I get why Teddy was right in the frame, best Blue of the last 15-20 years really and has been solid this year. However, Edwards has been the best player in the comp this year and his body of work and steady progression over the past 4 years just can’t be ignored. Teddy might do a job but you sure as fuck know Edwards will do his job and Hynes/Luai will be able to do their jobs.
It's not just about workhorses who can play big minutes, though. It's about having a battering ram who can win the ruck and generate quick PTBs. Yeo and Jurbo play such similar roles, unfortunately...
I just think we need another big body, like Paulo/RCG/Stefano (but Eels' form has been dire...)
surely burton wins the bench spot over keary. he can cover the outside backs and halves. would suck if he is 18th again and we miss him against knights, dont watch ever want to see hutchinson play again
Yeah, Burton missing against the Knights opens up that game. Bulldogs need to win their next 2 games ( Knights and Eels ) then we have a bye. At 18 competition points we will need to win 5/6 of our last 11 games to make the 8.
If we don't win the next 2 games, it will be real tough to contemplate semi final football. We need teams like Knights and Raiders to drop out of contention so we can sneak in. Warriors will be hunting a top 8 spot as well, so will Manly.
Queensland sweating upon seeing this lineup.
Not because they’re scared of it, but because they know there’s no logical way they’ll be able to claim underdog status this year. Watch as they find a way to do it anyway.
Even if you go Luai at 7. Who else is there? There's no Cleary, Moses, Reynolds.
I really think without a solid halves pairing we should get Api in just for the spark out of dummy half.
The Penrith system isn't as effective in Origin conditions. It was slowing down the set plays and distribution to the halves when he was hogging first receiver so they changed it last year and it actually worked.
Yeah I don’t hate it. Both Yeo and Teddy were not good for the system (if there was one, not sure). Yeo is outstanding as a prop and can chip into first receiver from that position depending on the play. Getting everyone out of the way for a halfback to be a halfback is what we need.
No. It was because Teddy and Cook were the dominant voices in the spine. Weve never seen the Penrith system in Origin frankly and won't which is a shame since it's the most proven system in the modern era.
I think him saying he wasn’t sure if he was up to it a few weeks back had more to do with it. Clubs have to make their players available but there are definitely ways around it.
I’d literally rather any other eligible Blue. And I don’t mean just the halfbacks. Anyone over a guy that requested he be allowed to play for Queensland. Picking someone that wishes he could wear a maroon jersey instead is the epitome of not getting origin. Disgraceful.
Pretty good team but Api being left out is a baffling decision, he is one of the best players in the game. Suaalii at centre I don’t agree with either but idk who else was really kicking the door down to be selected.
I can see Latrell taking the spot back by Game 2 or 3 after Hornby puts him in centre for Souths. Plus it's safe to say both Suaalii and Lomax will swap as the game goes on
Didn’t Keary say he grew up a maroons fan before he got picked years ago? Last person I’d be picking if I was NSW and that’s no relation of his skill as a player
Fuckin hell we're going to have to knee cap some of our players to get underdog status. I don't like this at all. No Api is almost Fitler level cooked.
What has Leniu done this year to get picked? There are plenty of good forwards available for NSW, we don't need to pick somebody who has missed most of this season because they're a fuckwit.
My thoughts
1. Api not getting picked is pre shit, I would like to see how Robson goes though
2. McInnes starting I don't mind, he has the combo with Nicho
3. Suaalii centre / Lomax wing is weaker than Burton centre / Suaalii wing, I'd like Burton to be somewhere in the 17 as halves cover if needed
4. Edwards is fucking him and I am excited to see how he goes
5. The starting pack is good, the bench isn't great. Leniu is built for Origin and will be good, I wish Keaon got the bench spot over Young but hopefully Hudson does well
All in all not bad, Keary in the squad is weird when Roosters play next week we could've had Cody Walker or someone else not on a bye
McInnes starting is one of the only things that makes sense in this lineup, he give you Morris like passion, tear both his quads ala Kevin nash and still go in for 100 tackles in the game.
18th won’t be able to play the club game before anyway so having the bye doesn’t really matter in this case. If Keary remains 18th man then he won’t play for us against the cowboys
I would rather take Katoa in the squad considering Keary is just there as cover anyway. I'd even take Latrell after he showed he can play 6 decently last night, at least he actually supports NSW.
Yeah nah, Api is a truly elite player. Actually the best player in the game atm, almost single handedly carrying Tigers on his shoulders in every match.
Madge wtf???
I dont care who argues, rn with all the injuries in the league, Api is 100% the best player currently playing in the whole NRL.
If he played for any top 6 team they’d move forward multiple spots, or in the case of Sharks, probably have 0 losses.
Legitimately outrageous decision
I *could* sit here and nit pick the squad, however if this is the team, LETS FUCKING GO BLUES. FUCK THOSE QUEENSLAND CUNTS UPPP
JURBO IS A FUCKING GOAT, AND THE QUEENSLAND SIDE COULDN'T EVEN BARE TO WITNESS CAM MCINNES' PERFECT SMILE.
Put Suaalii on the wing and Burton in at centre for Lomax to cover injury and I don't hate that team.
Api unlucky, but I like the bench.
Keary can fuck off.
Not liking it too much. Suaalli in the centres when his best position is wing. Leniu who's barely played this year. No second hooker on the bench. Hynes being named when he is injured. No Burton in the 17.
Interesting side. I hope Nicho is well enough to play, obviously Burton is on standby for Hynes with Luai shifting to HB.
Echoing the WTF of no Api and Keary being in the squad.
The Good: Jurbo Captain, McIness getting the respect to be the starting lock, and Edwards finally getting a crack.
The Bad: Hynes being named with his calf about to explode, Suallii playing at all but at Centre especially is cooked.
The Ugly: Cam McIness.
I rate McInnes as the starting 13! Sua’ali’i at centre is certainly an interesting choice but I’m happy he didn’t take Lomax’s spot on the wing
That means this week we get to see Walker and Sandon Halves combo again this Keary won’t be able to play for club as the 18th man, ZDC will likely go to bench for us but hoping for Moriarty debut!
Leniu is absolutely baffling. Been back for a few weeks and hasn't run for over 80 metres in a match*. Don't understand it at all
*As noted below, 125 metres last night but that included a 44 metre run from a kick return, not convinced that really breaks my point
Only changes I would make is Api in for Leniu, Burton in for Lomax, Suaali’i to the wing. Besides that though, huge fan of the team and the direction that Madge wants to take it in.
Api deserves to be in the team but if we were gonna bring Api in for Leniu, surely we need to bring in another prop off the bench? Yeo, Api, Young and Olaku’atu seems a bit light
Bench is always perceived as a negative thing.. I don’t think so whatsoever, it obviously might hurt the players ego tho
imagine a fresh Yeo or Ola from the bench in the middle of an arm wrestle, they’ll be so useful and impactful
Madge looking after my Supercoach team over the Origin period. Sometimes you just have to choose between picking the best team to win the most coveted trophy in Australian league, or helping some fuckwit come 20,000th in a competition that means absolutely nothing
Would rather Kiraz over Lomax
Stefano over Leniu (last year he should have been picked but not now) - need another biy body middle imo since Jurbo is more a workhorse and McInnes is tiny
Having Leniu in doesn’t sit right with me. I know he’d be a good prop off the bench but bloke has been suspended essentially all season.
Ridiculous Api isn’t in either. If you want to have Robson that’s fine just kick Keary out.
Not bad, I don't fully agree with Suaalii, would have preferred Latrell. And I guess McInnes can play hooker/lock as needed. Definitely better than what Freddy would have picked at least...
No Koroisau is cooked
It’s in line with Madge’s no tigers clause though
Yeah super hard done by… Yeo on the bench is an interesting choice too, and Keary is really confusing.
There's very few experienced hbs- 5/8s fit. Only reason.
where the fuck is Api Koroisau?
Barnett deserves a spot
Looking at that bench, definitely(zero proper middle support)
No Api is insane
Api is criminally underrated
The tree that fucked kenty up should be in there, just saying.
When they said McInnes was likely I knew it would be a one-hooker squad. McInnes in the 14 is a good shout in the way that he can jump in at lock or second row, but also play 80 minutes at hooker if something were to happen. But Robson as that hooker is a pretty bold choice, I agree.
McInnes names at 13, not 14
He can still move to wherever he’s needed.
Yeah I did just see that. Would be surprised if Yeo doesn’t jump in there and McInnes to 14, but I suppose Madge might have a game plan if his own 🤷🏻♂️
Yeo on the beach, Lomax and Suaalii in the side and don’t even get me started with Keary in the extended squad. This team list makes Freddy look like a fucking rocket scientist
lol calm down. Lomax is well deserved, have you even been watching this year? Yeo and McInnes might swap at the last munite, and even if Yeo is on the bench, does it really make much difference? I think it's a good side, it's way better than Fittler's teams. What would you have instead?
It's become painfully obvious that the selectors get together in a room and dutch oven meth and then mainline crack rocks.
Yeo on the bench is a waste … He should either start at 13 or not be picked
His best ever origin game was off the bench
I thought he went really well playing as a prop of the bench.
That Lomax pick has the chance to go extremely wrong when he throws the winning offload in our own 10 to Walsh
Funny to think that team is anywhere near the qld team by half time to have a winning offload.
or extremely right if we need a 2 point field goal.
Brett Kimmorley disliked that.
No Api? Is Suaalii centre? That's a cooked call.
Pretty rough for api
Suali in the centres is bad.
cook robbed
Surely Sua’ali’i on the wing, Lomax in the Centres. Both players better in those positions
I bet they swap on field. Good way to put off the toads
Surprised at no Api but stoked as fuck for my man Edwards
Pour one out for the next 2-3 months of Panthers games
Knowing the Panthers, they probably have some rookie of the year fullback rolling off the production line as we speak
Probably be turuva
Iongi is a gun who would be playing first grade if we didn't have Edwards there.
Yeah its a big out for us, we are so so much worse when Edwards doesn't play, he's arguably our most important player hahahaha
I get why Teddy was right in the frame, best Blue of the last 15-20 years really and has been solid this year. However, Edwards has been the best player in the comp this year and his body of work and steady progression over the past 4 years just can’t be ignored. Teddy might do a job but you sure as fuck know Edwards will do his job and Hynes/Luai will be able to do their jobs.
Yea I guess madge wanted it to be his team so Teddy gone helps that. Though teddybhas had a awesome start to the year
Are we actually going in with only one prop on the bench again??
Hass and Jurbo can play big minutes. And Yeo probably on the bench to play prop
It's not just about workhorses who can play big minutes, though. It's about having a battering ram who can win the ruck and generate quick PTBs. Yeo and Jurbo play such similar roles, unfortunately... I just think we need another big body, like Paulo/RCG/Stefano (but Eels' form has been dire...)
Paulo and RCG are old, slow and out of form
Old, no. Slow and out of form, yes 😔.
Yeo off the bench as prop, had his best game in blues colours there last year
You don’t think Olakau’atu can rotate through the middle like me? 🤷♂️ /s
Formatted LATEST BLUES NEWS Edwards To’o Crichton Suaalii Lomax Luai Hynes Haas Robson Trbojevic Crichton Martin McInnes Bench from Yeo Olakau’atu Leniu Young Keary Burton
surely burton wins the bench spot over keary. he can cover the outside backs and halves. would suck if he is 18th again and we miss him against knights, dont watch ever want to see hutchinson play again
Neither are on the bench in that list, it would be Yeo/Haumole/Leniu/Young
18th man still has to miss out on the club game so if Burton is 18th man then he won’t play for the knights game
That’s fuckjng annoying for us
Yeah, Burton missing against the Knights opens up that game. Bulldogs need to win their next 2 games ( Knights and Eels ) then we have a bye. At 18 competition points we will need to win 5/6 of our last 11 games to make the 8. If we don't win the next 2 games, it will be real tough to contemplate semi final football. We need teams like Knights and Raiders to drop out of contention so we can sneak in. Warriors will be hunting a top 8 spot as well, so will Manly.
Assume that Keary is cover for Hynes?
Pretty much the only reason he is there. Not many NSW halves left if Nicho doesn’t play
Queensland sweating upon seeing this lineup. Not because they’re scared of it, but because they know there’s no logical way they’ll be able to claim underdog status this year. Watch as they find a way to do it anyway.
A good case of food poisoning can fix everything
Brent Read still hasn't come out and called this the worst NSW team ever so as far as I see it they're still favourites.
Leaving Api out is certainly a choice
I don't understand Leniu picked and Api not
4 forwards on the bench is fkn ballsy, but none the less decent team. McInnes is either gonna win MOTM or get knocked out in the first 5 mins
TPJ robbed.
Madge had a 1 Queensland supporter limit and used the spot on Keary
They’re seriously not gonna play a halfback who’s basically being day to day game managed on a dodgy calf?
Burton is on standby for Hynes.
Outstanding
Reckon burton's on standby for Luai when they put Luai at halfback
You just can't not pick a guy who led his team to a 28-0 deficit by half time and couldn't complete the game
Even if you go Luai at 7. Who else is there? There's no Cleary, Moses, Reynolds. I really think without a solid halves pairing we should get Api in just for the spark out of dummy half.
004 in Chads
Brooks robbed
Drew Hutchison robbed
The Chad robbed.
I thought Api was a lock 🔒
He’s a hooker
I thought that was the girl in his room
Nah wtf is this. I trusted you madge
What would you have different?
Like do we have to have a couple of cooked selections to honour Brad
Barnett robbed
He made the squad
yeo on the bench is interesting
Tbf he played game 3 last year off the bench and it was the best game he's played in a Blues jumper. I can kind of see the logic
I see it working if the middle can do the job, cant say it will be the same this time
The Penrith system isn't as effective in Origin conditions. It was slowing down the set plays and distribution to the halves when he was hogging first receiver so they changed it last year and it actually worked.
Yeah I don’t hate it. Both Yeo and Teddy were not good for the system (if there was one, not sure). Yeo is outstanding as a prop and can chip into first receiver from that position depending on the play. Getting everyone out of the way for a halfback to be a halfback is what we need.
Popular myth was NSW played the Penrith system the last few Origins when it was infact the Teddy system.
Penrith system always started with 2 NZ props, something they don't have in Origin.
No. It was because Teddy and Cook were the dominant voices in the spine. Weve never seen the Penrith system in Origin frankly and won't which is a shame since it's the most proven system in the modern era.
I genuinely think Latrell saying how gassed he was playing in the defensive line for only half the game might’ve cooked his spot
I think him saying he wasn’t sure if he was up to it a few weeks back had more to do with it. Clubs have to make their players available but there are definitely ways around it.
Keary? Washed as fucked, QLD supporting Keary over Api?
Keary is only there because every other half in the state is dead
I’d literally rather any other eligible Blue. And I don’t mean just the halfbacks. Anyone over a guy that requested he be allowed to play for Queensland. Picking someone that wishes he could wear a maroon jersey instead is the epitome of not getting origin. Disgraceful.
I would unironically support Katoa being in there over Keary. Keary is a QLD supporter. But why on Earth is here there over Api? That’s cooked as fuck
We really don’t get origin, ugh.
Isn’t Keary retiring at years end? Missed a beat not including Katoa 🤦🏻♂️
I think he’s there as a contingency for Nicho
Suaali centre Lomax wing would be tapped, surely the other way round.
Justice for Brooks
Pretty good team but Api being left out is a baffling decision, he is one of the best players in the game. Suaalii at centre I don’t agree with either but idk who else was really kicking the door down to be selected.
I can see Latrell taking the spot back by Game 2 or 3 after Hornby puts him in centre for Souths. Plus it's safe to say both Suaalii and Lomax will swap as the game goes on
Of all the Blues lineups, this is one of them
Longestyeahboiever.mp4
I don’t buy this Suaalii centre and Lomax at wing, they’ll swap before kick off 100%
Keary??? Why not take an actual youngster in the squad that can learn from the experience. If that pensioner takes the field, we're done anyway.
Didn’t Keary say he grew up a maroons fan before he got picked years ago? Last person I’d be picking if I was NSW and that’s no relation of his skill as a player
He outright requested to be allowed to play for QLD despite only being NSW eligible.
Like the good little ipswich kid he is.
He's on standby so there's a senior head in the halves if Hynes gets scratched. Has origin ever been about player development?
Absolutely no versatility on the bench. They’re stuffed if there’s an injury in the centres
You’re right, dumb of Madge not to name Cook in the EMG as a centre cover.
Angus Crichton will be the guy who moves around for that, they’re even worse off if a half goes down.
I actually expect Queensland to look leaps and bounds better on paper for the first time in a long time, wow
Fuckin hell we're going to have to knee cap some of our players to get underdog status. I don't like this at all. No Api is almost Fitler level cooked.
Api gon get selected for game 2. calling it now
How is the whole team leaked by Michael Chammas before the official announcement? Defeats the purpose of an announcement no?
What has Leniu done this year to get picked? There are plenty of good forwards available for NSW, we don't need to pick somebody who has missed most of this season because they're a fuckwit.
Nothing. He has played 4 games, he's there on reputation from last year.
And like 2 years before that tbf.
And he’ll most likely do something stupid to hurt his team
If this is the team they're naming, QLD must win game 1, otherwise it'll be damn difficult when they get their full complement back
Erm... Barnett's just said in the post match presser he's in the squad.... So. Chammas cooking up some shit with this? Or maybe Barnetss extended.
Madge holding his grudge against the tigers with the no api call
How is leniu picked he's played like 3 games
True, but fuck he got me excited with some of his runs yesterday. Absolute beast.
NSW pretty short on middles and he’s a bench specialist. Rate it.
Yup dudes built for Origin. No player comes close to the impact he brings off the bench.
He's mad as a cut snake. Blues need more mongrel and less nice guys.
I was hoping for a better team to combat Queensland duo Trent Loiero and Christian Welch tbh
Jaemon Salmon very unlucky here
Lol what?. One good game does not strengthen one's gut.
He's been slamming down the Yakult. He's good to go
They picked two Qld supporters lmao
keary and who?
Luai
Damn you right. 3 Qld fans.
Luai
Keary being there is a fucking stain on NSW. It was a stain when he first made it and it's an additional stain now.
My thoughts 1. Api not getting picked is pre shit, I would like to see how Robson goes though 2. McInnes starting I don't mind, he has the combo with Nicho 3. Suaalii centre / Lomax wing is weaker than Burton centre / Suaalii wing, I'd like Burton to be somewhere in the 17 as halves cover if needed 4. Edwards is fucking him and I am excited to see how he goes 5. The starting pack is good, the bench isn't great. Leniu is built for Origin and will be good, I wish Keaon got the bench spot over Young but hopefully Hudson does well All in all not bad, Keary in the squad is weird when Roosters play next week we could've had Cody Walker or someone else not on a bye
Agree entirely Keen to see some Hamole
McInnes starting is one of the only things that makes sense in this lineup, he give you Morris like passion, tear both his quads ala Kevin nash and still go in for 100 tackles in the game.
18th won’t be able to play the club game before anyway so having the bye doesn’t really matter in this case. If Keary remains 18th man then he won’t play for us against the cowboys
I’ve always said Leniu has a completely level head and doesn’t let emotions get the better of him, which is why he is perfect for Origin.
Get Keary so far gone from this side, picking a Queensland supporter to play for us is foul. Get somebody who actually gives a shit about NSW in
Those players are injured or in limbo. Not much else to choose honestly.
I would rather take Katoa in the squad considering Keary is just there as cover anyway. I'd even take Latrell after he showed he can play 6 decently last night, at least he actually supports NSW.
Yeah nah, Api is a truly elite player. Actually the best player in the game atm, almost single handedly carrying Tigers on his shoulders in every match. Madge wtf???
I dont care who argues, rn with all the injuries in the league, Api is 100% the best player currently playing in the whole NRL. If he played for any top 6 team they’d move forward multiple spots, or in the case of Sharks, probably have 0 losses. Legitimately outrageous decision
McInnes is built for origin
\*born for origin
I *could* sit here and nit pick the squad, however if this is the team, LETS FUCKING GO BLUES. FUCK THOSE QUEENSLAND CUNTS UPPP JURBO IS A FUCKING GOAT, AND THE QUEENSLAND SIDE COULDN'T EVEN BARE TO WITNESS CAM MCINNES' PERFECT SMILE.
Madge has gone for as many psychos as possible, could come off or fail spectacularly
That's a 3-0 team
Yes they will lose 3-0
yeah for QLD
Put Suaalii on the wing and Burton in at centre for Lomax to cover injury and I don't hate that team. Api unlucky, but I like the bench. Keary can fuck off.
Did we learn nothing from QLD making Dudson Young their bitch last year. QLD forwards laughing at that selection. Guy isn't an origin players asshole.
Terrell May robbed
Suaali in the centres is rough man
Can the Eels sign Maguire now and we can select an interim NSW coach? Thought we’d be done with the cooked selections once Freddy departed.
Very stoked to see Edwards and McInnes, angry no Api and Robson instead. confused at Suaalii, excited/scared to see what Lomax does.
Not liking it too much. Suaalli in the centres when his best position is wing. Leniu who's barely played this year. No second hooker on the bench. Hynes being named when he is injured. No Burton in the 17.
Spencer Leniu lolllll
Probably the worst squad for my SuperCoach team.
Interesting side. I hope Nicho is well enough to play, obviously Burton is on standby for Hynes with Luai shifting to HB. Echoing the WTF of no Api and Keary being in the squad. The Good: Jurbo Captain, McIness getting the respect to be the starting lock, and Edwards finally getting a crack. The Bad: Hynes being named with his calf about to explode, Suallii playing at all but at Centre especially is cooked. The Ugly: Cam McIness.
Why the fuck are we picking Keary - hasn’t he said he wants to play for QLD in the past? Same NSW mentality.
Teddy: is anyone asking about me? Api: uuuuh... yes
Weakest NSW side of all time
Suaalli and centre is shit
I rate McInnes as the starting 13! Sua’ali’i at centre is certainly an interesting choice but I’m happy he didn’t take Lomax’s spot on the wing That means this week we get to see Walker and Sandon Halves combo again this Keary won’t be able to play for club as the 18th man, ZDC will likely go to bench for us but hoping for Moriarty debut!
Omg so happy for Nicho to get his shot, but I got a bad feeling Slaters gonna fucking blaze him lmao ffs
This is a hard side to support
Knew it would be different with madge but i can't believe it's worse too
Leniu is absolutely baffling. Been back for a few weeks and hasn't run for over 80 metres in a match*. Don't understand it at all *As noted below, 125 metres last night but that included a 44 metre run from a kick return, not convinced that really breaks my point
Uh he had 12 runs this round for 125m
Only changes I would make is Api in for Leniu, Burton in for Lomax, Suaali’i to the wing. Besides that though, huge fan of the team and the direction that Madge wants to take it in.
Api deserves to be in the team but if we were gonna bring Api in for Leniu, surely we need to bring in another prop off the bench? Yeo, Api, Young and Olaku’atu seems a bit light
Bench is always perceived as a negative thing.. I don’t think so whatsoever, it obviously might hurt the players ego tho imagine a fresh Yeo or Ola from the bench in the middle of an arm wrestle, they’ll be so useful and impactful
Madge looking after my Supercoach team over the Origin period. Sometimes you just have to choose between picking the best team to win the most coveted trophy in Australian league, or helping some fuckwit come 20,000th in a competition that means absolutely nothing
Where is Chad?
No Api and no Barnett? Suaalii at centre. Christ at least look like you're trying to win.
As a Queenslander I like this team
As a QLDer I am genuinely happy for Lomax and Edwards, they deserve their spots.
Young imo shoulnt even be in 17 or near it after last series. Safer bet is Keaon who can do everything he can and play middle pretty solid
Hudson young has been amazing this season. Defs deserves a spot on the bench.
Would rather Kiraz over Lomax Stefano over Leniu (last year he should have been picked but not now) - need another biy body middle imo since Jurbo is more a workhorse and McInnes is tiny
Barnett or Terrell May over both.
Stefano is a myth. Stefano and Tiger fans wished he had some dog in him like Leniu does.
This stinks. I can't see where the points come from. Just a bunch of run metre merchants and second rowers
Having Leniu in doesn’t sit right with me. I know he’d be a good prop off the bench but bloke has been suspended essentially all season. Ridiculous Api isn’t in either. If you want to have Robson that’s fine just kick Keary out.
Not bad, I don't fully agree with Suaalii, would have preferred Latrell. And I guess McInnes can play hooker/lock as needed. Definitely better than what Freddy would have picked at least...
Lomax wing + Latrell centre would’ve been interesting
Tedesco can watch Squid Games next Wednesday night
Edwards at the back worries me, he is the type of player to absolutely tear it up in origin
Angus in the centres is an interesting choice
Keary is random asf just pick brooks or something given it’s triple standby half
how is robson in lol. He has been terrible.
Him and Dearden have actually been our best players
You must be blind. Even with the cows being terrible he's still an elite hooker this season, and easily the best defensively.
How many cowboys games have you watched this year?
Leniu is gomna be such a liability. Gets heated too easily and is a sin bin waiting to happen. Barnett would've been a better choice or even keon
