a bit unfair to be analysing them on form over the last couple of seasons. those blokes have played good matches in origin. it's very rare to half a freak like Slater still playing at a high level into their 30s. even thurston has struggled this season.

far more average players who've played double digit origin matches for NSW and did f**k all.

If so, only because Pearce didn't play that many.

Darius played in winning sides, so they continued to pick him.

and Pearce still played too many.

was there an argument that boyd should never have been selected when he was? unlike pearce, he did what he was selected to do. run the ball back, defend the wing, put the ball down over the stripe, and don't have a brain fart. many NSW wingers couldn't do any of that correctly.

Rumor going around that Gagai has broken his finger.

NSW would Bradbury their way to a series victory off the back of a ruined QLD side lol

this bloke reckons a whole rejig of the backline. LOL

surely you put ponga on the wing and milford on bench and try and minimise the change to how they've been training all week. you don't move every merkin around for a winger.

FB: Morgan
RW: Ponga
RC: Chambers
LC: Inglis
LW: Holmes
FE(l): Munster
HB (r): Hunt

IC: Milford

if they rule out Hunt, perhaps they get Cronk to fly in overnight like Alfie Langer

Apparently itll be:
1. Ponga
2. Chambers
3. Morgan
4. Inglis
5. V-Holmes
6. Munster
7. Milford

And It's pathetic. Cant see it competing let alone winning....

whatever they do with the backline, game will still be won in the forwards. lucky for QLD, they haven't had issues there...yet

just send all the players to bed now and don't let them move until the bus comes by the hotel tomorrow arvo to pick them up LOL

NSW have been rubbish the last few years. Even the 2018 Parramatta Eels side could beat them.
