    Kangaroo's selection after State of Origin. Your kangaroo's Team

    Walsh is more dangerous I don’t disagree but you still choose ignore all the other facets like defence, positioning, organising the line, repeat efforts and metres. I’m not saying Edwards should be the utility or squad player, I’m saying straight up he’s a better all round fullback than Reece Walsh.

    Kangaroo's selection after State of Origin. Your kangaroo's Team

    Turbo hasn’t been fit in like forever and Cobbo is well behind Coates and Holmes for me. Walsh has a better highlight reel but Edwards does all the little things right like positioning, defence and awareness. There’s no way you watched games 2 and 3 and came away with the conclusion that Walsh...

    Kangaroo's selection after State of Origin. Your kangaroo's Team

    I can only assume you didn’t actually watch origin to leave out Edwards, Angus Crichton and Bradman Best.

    In Walsh’s defence he’s been working with Darius Boyd at the broncos, looks like he’s learnt plenty from Darius in defence

    Exactly, Madge obviously wanted to play through the halves and keep it tight up the middle, Robson might not have the array of tricks and craftiness of Api but his service is good and he defends well. Watson and Api are completely different players, Api is a specialist hooker who can fill in the...

    At NRL level yeah maybe so but Api isn’t the perfect player you’re so desperately trying to paint. Api has had a few games in origin and whilst he hasn’t been bad I’ve never looked at him and thought wow we need to pick him forever. You keep going on and on about how creative he is, how he can...

    Yeah Nanai was at fault for the break but Gags probably should’ve done a better job on Best.

    Rumoured Targets 3

    Barnett is the perfect origin bench forward, can play middle and edge, tonight he played left edge, middle then right edge, great line speed, aggressive but has done a great job in getting the rubbish out of his game. He made 30 tackles tonight and didn’t miss any.

    How is it criminal? You’re making it sound like Api is Cameron Smith or something. They’re 2 different style of hooker, Api is more creative but not as good defensively and hasn’t got the same motor, Robson not as creative but more durable and better defensively, Madge chose a dummy half based...

    I think it’s been discussed as nauseam that where Robson has a massive advantage is defensively. Api is a much craftier dummy half but I think that craftiness tends to not always translate in origin just like the ball playing lock doesn’t have the same effect in origin but defence is the one...

    To be fair Tedesco and Suualii were only there due to injuries and Suualii has literally had his papers stamped, you also forgot the failure we had at halfback in game 1.

    NSW Blues 2024

    I think Madge absolutely nailed the selections, obviously much of the team picks itself but it was a big call to leave Teddy out, a lot of people were questioning the Lomax selection, he picked Murray for game 2 after only half a game back from injury, people were questioning the selections of...

    Yep, I feel like of all the players missing from both sides he’s the one that was really missed.

    Crichton was a beast, close to 150m and 6 offloads and he came off for 15 mins aswell

    Can’t say he didn’t try to get them back into it “possible penalty try”😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
