Do you think Sutton would have been used? Really? He too would have watched from the bench ala Buher.

Yeah I think he would have, big strong with damaging ball playing skills. He played lock for us against the Knights a few days ago and had his best game of the season

Is Fatty really crying about the Gallen fight? I remember some years ago he was having a laugh and a joke when Piggy Ridell did the same thing to Weyman. Probably had a good laugh when Tallis went sick on Ben Ross too.

There's been loads of fights in the game where one guy dominates. Don't know why people are suddenly calling for extended bans and red cards for it, there's no precedence for excessive punishment like that so wind your necks in.

He's the form five eighth of the comp dickhead. And he is big and strong enough to be part of the backrow rotation if necessary, unlike J Reynolds who was literally a passenger.

If the people that matter thought he was the form five eighth of the competition he would be the NSW five eighth dickhead!

We don't need anymore back rowers. You sound like Ricky Stuart!

Seriously Mr Mensa, you have no f**king idea

But can he play hooker? Cause that was the point of difference Daley saw between the two. He wanted to be safe, and was confident that the forwards he had selected could go the mile. Thus he was able to select someone who was unlikely to get on the field unless an injury hit the side.

Reynolds has played three or four first grade games at hooker, hardly a specialist. If we lost Farah it would be done.

I would be happy if Smith went down. They got nothing. Next game they pick Cherryboy and Thurston goes down, they're arguably stronger with Daly out there.

Either way I think he truly is too small for Origin.

The bench has to have cover for hooker. Imagine if Farah went down early and there was no one who could slot in at 9.

What if Smith went down for QLD? Gillett or Teo in the the backs. JT half. Cronk hooker. GI 5/8.

We had Lewis & Bird both have played SOO as backs who could of covered.

The last 20mins we were stuffed a 4th forward comes on then we end the game better.

He played hooker at the lower grades, and obviously Daley was happy with the service he provided, not to mention that he could also play the halves if required. So he had 3 key positions covered compared to 2 that Sutton can.
