I doubt the Eagles pack will be fearing the cowboys pack, Trex has been outstanding in recent weeks.. I rate Johnson, he has been an outstanding backrowers for years, I would prefer G Stewart over Johnson, heaps more attacking ability. I think the forwards will contain each other…

King will play out of his skin because of him SOO axing (I don't think he should have been there in the first place) Watch for young Darcy Lussick, this kid has sooo much potential if he can stay fit, reminds me of a young Nik Kosef

Our backline should dominate the Cows

I agree lussicks got plenty of talent. I think he's a different style to kosef though

Lol at roughing up Foran. Teams have been trying it all year. It doesn't work.

True, when I think of rep star I don't think of Thurston, Locky, Slater etc. I think of Dallas Johnson. All the kids running around with his name on their jumpers just proves how much of a star he is.
Nothing like acting like a d*ckhead:roll:

But he makes 40 tackles a game garts. He's so much of a star he's not even getting a run for qld

But Stewart is, rite?

Glad this thread has turned from Manly v Cowboys to G. Stewart v D. Johnson anyway.

^You're clearly biased if you're 'lmfaoing' at that opinion.
Dallas Johnson is a representative star and is a fantastic player, no he doesn't attack, but his defence cannot be ignored.

I think we lose, hopefully by less than 10 though, there is chance to win if we rattle the halves who are still young enough to get shaken up if roughed early.
Glenn Stewart is also a great defender, not in the class of Johnson but if you add Stewarts attack he is an overall better player.

I think we can all agree Glenn Stewart has a better kicking game than Dallas Johnson.

And passing game.

Quote me where I said Stewart is better than Johnson?

I was just disagreeing with Johnson being an Origin star. He's a top player but not Origin elite.

Stewart is better btw.

Another game robbed by Origin. Would have been an absolute cracker with both teams at full strength. Guess it's a chance for the Cowboys to prove they don't rely wholly and solely on Thurston.

It's beautiful and sunny at the moment. A bit chilly but not enough to save the Cowboys.

I really dont see why the Cowboys are out to $5, maybe the betting companies know something we dont?

Yeah, unless Matt Bowen, Dallas Johnson and Tariq Sims all pull out injured, those are crazy odds.

I'm spewing that rep duties have spoiled this game. I was hoping that we could see how close we are to the current benchmark of the comp.
