    Surely the ball goes forward into Brown

    To be fair they lost both games by miracle plays (kikau tackle, Sivo aerial artistry) and storm have gone up several gears since then

    And if Ronaldo had moved to QLD 1 year earlier he'd be eligible, not exactly sure what point you're getting at

    Paul Green now has a built in excuse for the rest of his origin career

    Yep me too. I haven't really seen Meaney do much ball playing but he's quick. One player who could definitely do with some bellyache guidance is Milford. I remember when Milford burst on to the scene with Canberra he was scary good

    Melbourne are just the absolute gold standard in terms of identifying talent and getting the absolute best out of each and every player. What's amazing is Xavier Coates is the 1st player they've signed in 15 years who's a current origin rep, the last one was Michael Crocker in 2006. Whilst...

    I don't think there is a single person who would dispute that Finucane is an excellent player but I feel like his value will be vastly inflated because of all those leadership and experience factors that I don't think we're really lacking. He'd be sensational for a side like the tigers or...

    2021 R16 Thu - Sydney 0-46 Melbourne @ McDonald Jones

    Just watching this game and how quick the PTBs are and how eager the ref is with the set restarts is a complete contrast to origin. If origin were reffed like this NSW would've probably put another 50 on in game 2

    Walker is a talent but really needs to improve his kicking game

    If we're after forward why not someone like Jaydn Su'a who's a specialist edge and only 23 plus he was a high school union team mate of KP's

    Munster not a Grub!

    Most current players don't kick people on the ground

    Munster not a Grub!

    Difference is all those guys are genuine tough hombres who could look after themselves in any era, Munster as great a player as he is would've been belted more than once by now if he played in a previous era

    2021 Origin II - QLD 0-26 NSW @ Suncorp

    Thurston did what he did because he knew he could get away with it. In the era of $10,000 fines for even questioning a referees performance Thurston basically questioned the integrity of the ref, touchy, video ref by suggesting they all conspired against the cowboys to ensure an all Sydney grand...

    Gagai isn't quick over long distances but he does have good acceleration, agility and short area quickness that makes him a half decent ball runner, those attributes will likely decline significant in the next 18 months with age. Outside backs over 30 just aren't a good investment, as I said...

    Hit the nail on the head, under the new rules having a lock that can act as that link and extra ball player is invaluable. Finucane is great don't get me wrong but his skillset is pretty similar to what we already have.

    Gagai has definitely improved alot defensively but being defensively sound is the bare minimum you'd expect from a 'marquee' centre. My fear with Gagai is what kind of player he will be in a year or 2 when he loses a yard or 2 of pace, I look around the league now and can't find too many centres...

    Not sure where this narrative of inexperienced forwards keeps coming from; Klemmer-NSW and Aust rep Brailey-co captain D Saf-co captain and NSW starting prop Frizell-NSW and Aust rep Fitz-close to 90 1st grade games now and 6th year in 1st grade Barnett-over 100 top grade games and member of...

    2021 Origin II - QLD 0-26 NSW @ Suncorp

    NSW also bombed a few tries too, the Murray one from the Turbo line break should've been iced and the one where Murray didn't get back.behind the play the ball was another example of QLD getting skinned. The Coates and Feldt opportunities happened when the game was well and truly over, at best...

    2021 Knights rep players

    I think Moses should get a go, I think in terms of playing style he's probably the most similar to Cleary as someone who has a good kicking game but also takes on the line where Reynolds is just purely an organiser and Pearce's kicking game is sub par. I think also Moses is the right age where...

    QRL are definitely to blame, at best it's negligence, at worst it's blatant cheating.
