Everybody thinks Fittler is a complete imbecile but he never lost a series like that. The way he completely reversed that debacle of 2017 immediately should always be commended. He deserves more respect these days imo
Like Cleary, curiously I find it's the fans north of the border who give a more accurate summary of his abilities in the role he's played with NSW over the past decade than my fellow Blues.

Freddy went off the boil (and badly) in 2023, but the NSWRL did the right thing and got rid of him straight away. They have to do the same with Laurie.

Gallen and SBW pretending they hate one another on national television is the cringiest thing I've seen in quite some time.

Less Panthers players please.

Doesnt leave much though... Blayke Brailey is probably the next best option... not many young guys coming through either.
I agree and I think we are on a similar page but I think individually Egan deserves it. Brailey is good just that his half back is rocks or diamonds his quality gets overlooked.

It’s really either Tedesco or Papenhuyzen, and I reckon Paps has lost a step after all those injuries while Teddy is better than ever.

Cleary deserves another chance with Moses after game 1
While NSW won that game, I thought they did not combine well at all.

I always predicted Fittler would step aside if he didn’t think he was up to it anymore and that’s what he did

I mostly agree. I just hope someone steps up at 1 because after a generation of ridiculous fullbacks across the NRL the NSW ones are all bald or broken and we haven't got the Ponga and Walsh and even Iongi aged players coming through, really

Yeh i agree, just taking the piss. When he can stay fit he adds good spark behind that warriors pack.

There's this guy named Kaeo Weekes who's playing for the competition leaders and just scored 3 tries on the weekend, 2 of them long range while showing off his superior speed to all other nsw backs.
