Turbo obviously cant play fullback, but should get a spot .... so no problem him playing centre .... Fergo hopefully fires up. He was on fire for us earlier this year

I have no problem with Maloney in the halves ..... Walker did nothing

Mitchell is a gun when on. But he has just been skitzo of late. ... wighton - i dunno. I think he can be strong in SOO and not having halves responsibility is probably good for him

Im sure Mundine will find a racism aspect

So many changes. Usually it’s a 10 day turnaround however this time it’s just a week. Everyone played this weekend so will be nursing niggles until Thursday.

Smacks of desperation.

Klemmer and Cotric forced ..... Crighton offered little ... so 3 entirely legit changes

I think Walker was meh ... and Wighton had little opportunity but was meh too .... i would have dropped both .... i think maloney in is the right move

Turbo had to come in ..... i would have kept mitchell and morris in the centres andTom to wing

Cleary was average last year however Freddy dreamed of him coming out the other side a world beater. Instead he remained average. He picked him again to save face and because of that has got the team out of balance.

Ivan even said the other day in his son’s defence that he his only 21 and can’t be expected to play like a 27yo. FMD how about picking him when he’s 27 then ?

What is with the infatuation with Wighton, he does not even play centre for Canberra and to add to it his f**king over rated! Freddy must be drunk his dropped the best centre in the game cause his had a couple average games, seriously.

And surely there are some better props around then Daniel Saifiti, deadset.

Finucane and even Graham I can understand but Tariq Sims just targets the little guys, other then that what does he really offer.

I reckon Latrell’s attitude / mental state was probably shit in camp for game 1.

I don’t think that really matters. He got dropped because it was easily one of the worst performances in Origin ever. That includes Aaron Raper

No prop on the bench. Both centres are not centres. Risky

I personally think the bench is better than Game 1.

Ive got no problem with Tom T being picked as a centre he could do a good job no matter where they put him. Wighton has played there before but I think Morris is unlucky to be dropped.

Saifiti is the big risk being a debutante at starting prop.
