Thurston's shoulder is f**ked and he is out for the year, including the Rugby League World Cup! :eek:

Our chances of beating QLD just went up, but it'll still be hard!

QLD might go for the Storm spine of Slater, Munster, Cronk, Smith.
Maybe Morgan on the interchange..

Darius Boyd is out too.

Munster to centre and Morgan to 5/8 I reckon.

I think we will beat them.

Has NSW ever beaten QLD in Brisbane twice in the same year???

iirc it happened once in the mid 80's, and once in the mid 90s...

Dugan has limped off the field tonight and talk of Tedesco in doubt to play this week. Frizell looks like he's struggling too and Cordner in doubt. Team selection on Monday will be interesting

If there is no Tedesco and no Dugan then maybe Hayne to fullback

DCE was snubbed for origin. I honestly hope Queensland lose because of this. He is the form halfback of the competition the past few rounds and the fact that ben hunt got chosen over him is beyond me. Hunt has just come back from injury and has had 1 good game.

NSW by 50.

Ben Hunt :joy:
Wayne Bennett didn't even want him a fortnight ago.

I'm surprised that NSW are currently unchanged though depending on the fitness of a few i would think.
I would like to see Jake Trbojevic start at lock though

It's a joke. Honestly pisses me off too because it shows how biased origin selectors of both states are. I don't like manly but DCE is a champion bloke and he's worked his ass off to get manly into the top 4 spot this season. Meanwhile Brisbane are on the slide..

Nah NSW were smart. Got it done in game 1, should of got it done in game 2 and will get it done in game 3. Up the blues.

Game 2 was just poor game management in the last 20 that cost NSW, otherwise the series would be over. However i do believe that both Mansour and Tom Trbojevic would've been there for game 1 if fit without a doubt and regardless of results you should always look to pick your best 17.

I think the only reason I disagree with that is because we've seen this team can win and trbojevic and mansour will more than likely be our wingers next year. Brett Morris is on his final legs and ferguson can't hold a spot on reputation alone forever.

I am a Qld supporter but I think Kev wants to lose this series.
