    Big fan of Spencer Leniu getting the call up (if true)

    Loved his and JWH clash on the weekend. Hope he comes out with same intensity for this game, could be Carl Webb reincarnated.

    The bench is super weird. In what world is Utoikamanu the third best prop available to NSW?

    Yeah that pick is baffling. Freddy's obsession with whatever he sees in these islanders (TPJ Game 1) is random and dumb as shit.

    Trell is going to need a monster game.

    Moses / Luai is one of the worst pairings we could have chosen out of all the options we had available.

    You pick a half/fullback at 14, then give him 12 minutes at centre with the game on the line and when it goes bad you drop him. Fittler, McGregor and Alexander are absolute assclowns.

    Any journo worth his salt should be asking Fittler that question and following up until he admits they fucked up and that it was a piss poor selection. How many more times does Fittler need to select his way to defeat with the better players to pick from before they chuck him. Cant go one game without some left field bullshit. Its laughable.

    Daley wasn’t a good coach but seriously, he has to wonder where the luck was when he was NSW coach. With him at the helm we probably would’ve won the last five straight. Instead, by next week Queensland will have won three of the last four.

    Fittler is the most hopeless cunt out and I’m looking forward to Sandcorp putting the last nail in his coffin.

    Wonder why he's gone so off the Saifitis, I'd have never picked Jacob when he did, but he was pretty good, then just brushes both of them for fairly random picks.

    Hope it works but simultaneously wouldn't mind seeing him gone. Him picking Sims last year should've been the absolute final straw (losing 2020 should've realistically been it though.


    Really thought Hynes would be 18th man at least

    Fittler never ceases to amaze, it's like every team he names, he fixes 1 problem, and creates 3 more.

    Finally pick a bench hooker, awesome.

    But then, Luai/Moses halves, Random Stefano pick

    Taniela Paseka is just the more developed, better version of Stefano if that’s the type of player you’re looking for anyway. But there’s been a weird obsession with Stefano and pushing him as an origin player even back when he was starting off for Parra.

    It was shaping up as the first Origin match I wasn't really nervous about since 2017, and now that's making me nervous... The boys can't go in half cocked.

    Indeed. I'm wary whenever people write off one team as Blues and Maroons fans are, all over social media. We dont have to win. They do. And therein lies the danger.

    Writing them off is always for fools. Closing out a series in 2 games is not as easy as people think and doesn't happen as often as people think especially for QLD. Prospect of a decider in Sydney alone should be incentive for QLD not to be complacent.

    I dont think I've seen Qld this short since the dynasty. 1.55 favourites. Clearly we're underdogs tho. I mean clearly...

    Mitchell out.....again. This is beyond comical at this point. How can you be ruled out 2, 3 days into camp if he was any chance of playing? Should never have been picked.

    NSW are proper fucked now imo. I felt like the Nanai, DCE, Holmes edge was the most obvious breaking point with Mitchell there. They need him to win imo.

    1.39 Qld lol.

    I know bunker can't rule on forward passes but Tabuai-Fidow is standing in front of Fifita when he throws that pass forward so could they not rule on offside?
