2023 Origin I - Wed 31 May - NSW 18-26 QLD @ Adelaide

[SLRBRONCOS]

Latrell, a fit Turbo, JAC and Teddy is nightmare fuel for me. Teddy gets grief, but he's always there when he needs to be.

Latrell being out gives me a glimmer of hope.

Not the chin booting a tooth

Mitchell out's a huge loss. Does Crichton go to right centre with To'o where you know a right edge of Cleary, Crichton and To'o will be strong defensively and combine well?

Or does Crichton straight up replace Trell?

Personally I think Turbo on the left makes more sense and unlocks Fox more probably. Also makes the job of Luai easier. Just get Turbo the ball and watch him work his magic.

Probably got it from drinking his red beer on a weeknight.

Crichton and To'o with Fox and Turbo makes a lot more sense. Anything to help Luai with options.

TPJ plays in the middle for the Dogs, I wonder if he will moonlight on Luai's edge. If so, it could be a massacre down that side.

I had tooth pain once, I pulled it out and carried on. f**king pussy.

 

[Fangs]

Tooth pain is pretty bad. Ear infection is worse though.

I recommend numbing from the dentist followed by a pain killer administered by Ron Palmer. Straight in the chin you can't miss it.

Huge, huge loss. Qld blessed, as always.
Series is toast if nsw lose in Adelaide.

Nathan Cleary won a grand final and CCM with a busted shoulder that needed reconstruction. He busted that shoulder 10 minutes into an Origin game which he finished leading NSW to the series victory.

Cleary will play. He has played with injury and through pain before. Tends to play better too. No way he would miss out by choice.

if we lose, it penriths fault

You'd need to be king Arthur to pull that tooth from that jaw

 

[BranVan3000]

Not sure why they ruled out Latrell so quickly. Get that man a zinger burger and watch him heal instantly

Maybe he was kissing the crowd Ivan-like and bumped his tooth.

Of course he will - NSW have just ratcheted up the mind games just like QLD do with the mystery virus that seeps into camp every year.

If he loses that tooth how are we supposed to distingiush him from the maroons ?

Just keep an eye out for the inbred chin

Cleary might need Joey to hook him up with the good stuff to ease the pain
