[Walt Flanigan]

NSW in a canter.

If the expected changes are made (Hayne for Morris and TLL for King) then I can see the Blues coming away with a solid win.

 

[Timmah]

Jennings now injured.

Expected lineup:
Dugan Hayne Gasnier Jennings/Idris Uate Soward Pearce King Ennis Mannah Scott Bird Gallen
B: Creagh Merrin Lewis Gidley
18th: Watmough

 

[Hutty1986]

We will get slaughtered out wide if Idris plays.

 

[user_nat]

I think NSW may get this one, setting up a huge match for game 3.

 

[Timmah]

Idris is a right centre - we may see Josh Morris as Jennings' replacement come think of it.

If Lawrence wasn't injured he'd probably walk in.

 

[Dutchy]

JMo was TERRIBLE last night. I'd prefer Canberra Croker, or even Hoppa in the centres.

 

[Jobdog]

Nah apparently Ricky's "I'll only pick players in their positions" philosophy was only for the first game. By picking Hayne out of position on the wing goes against what he was originally saying :crazy:

J Moz was a bit ordinary in defence, granted - but that was only because Pritchard f**king deserted him.

Hayne's played on the wing for NSW with great success in the past - I dare say he's better on the wing at rep level.

He's still out of position though...

 

[woodyk2]

blues all the way.

stay off that crack

[besthalfbackPEARCE]

Oh dear god... wtf is that?

 

[Apey]

Kurt Gidley to fullback!

 

[CliffyIsGod]

I'm a Manly fan, but Hoppa?

And 1 prop on the bench? No point having Gidley and Lewis. Drop 1 and put TLL/Sims there.

 

[dragon_around]

why is kidley in the side if we have lewis?

why, why, why? :crazy:

 

[juanfarkall]

Barely 2 front rowers in the 17.

 

[Mobs]

Smallest team ever
