Thurston wont be moved to accomodate Prince, he wants the number 7 long term and wont step aside just for Prince. If Prince is in the side at all (and i dont think he will be) he will move to 5/8 (where he said he is happy to play) or come off the bench.

I picked Price in the off chance he is fit by then. I dont care if he hasnt played a game by then and only has half an hour preparation time, he will turn up and rip heads off, players like him and Danny Nutley ooze the passion that Origin is all about, its just a shame Nutley is getting old and isnt quite up to it still, he has the ticker for it though.

Also, there can't be a draw.

I was actually going to ask about this. If an Origin game goes to Golden Point, does it have a time limit? Or is it judged as one of those games that must have a winner, regardless of how long it takes?

And by the way ... GO THE BLUES!!

I think its golden point for 10 minutes one way..and then they play unlimited golden point extra time the other way.

AND YES, GO THE BLUES!!

 

[Timmah]

I think it's something we definitely need to check. I would think 5 each way, then unlimited if it is...

Slater is the Australian halfback. He will not be picked on the bench.

 

[Knight87]

you mean the Australian fullback, right? Slater at halfback would be a good move.......NOT!

 

[Timmah]

Yes, fullback...my bad

 

[Y2Eel]

Yes, fullback...my bad

You bad bad boy.. Instead of your forum Cop hat...

 

[Hutty1986]

God I hope they don't pick Gidley at 7...

 

[Jobdog]

Rumour has it that Mullen has firmed as second pick at halfback should Stewart not pass the medical

 

[Timmah]

That's confusing.

You mean, if Stewart fails medical, Gidley (chosen at half) will shift to fullback, and Mullen to half?

I'd keep Gidley at half and put Patten in if not injured tbh :sarcasm:

 

[Jobdog]

That's confusing.

You mean, if Stewart fails medical, Gidley (chosen at half) will shift to fullback, and Mullen to half?

That is correct. Sorry, should have clarified exactly what it was I meant

 

[Hutty1986]

Rumour has it that Mullen has firmed as second pick at halfback should Stewart not pass the medical

I expect Mullen to be everywhere tonight for Newcastle to prove he deserves the 7. He's a class player, but he'll need a blinder tonight imo

 

[NK Arsenal]

Why not have Mullen at 7?

He has a good combination with Bedsy and Kidley..
