Cleary has dominated Origin games and looked terrific doing so.

But NSW win well with him it"s because of Latrell and Turbo.

Game 3 last year was going well until Too Poo in Origin dropped a nothing bomb prior to half time.

NSW could barely touch the ball in the second half in non defensive positions.

Nathan hasn't performed as well as expected in Origin but Pearce being clueless lost games. Anyone got the gif of him booting it dead with about overlap. Or the game Thurston did his shoulder and NSW didn't send traffic at him.

Nathan has been underwhelming in some Origin games but Pearce was terrible.

It's not a matter of being religious to have God on your side.
What's with all this god (aka dog spelt backwards) talk?

The paint is peeling from my bedroom walls and ceiling while the tiles have lifted in the bathroom at the mere mention of the fictitious sky daddy.

penrith 2020-2022 were pretty on par roster wise with roosters 2013-2015. We’ll see how Nathan goes once the squad gets systematically broken up over the next few seasons
2013 Manly v Chooks - GF Roosters Premiers
2014 Souffs v Dogs - Pearce rubbing one out into a yellow dress
2015 Donkeys v Cows - Pearce hot date with Bella at Petbarn

2020 Panthers v Storm - Storm Premiers
2021 Panthers v Souffs - Panthers Premiers - Cleary CCM
2022 Panthers v Parra - Panthers Premiers

In that period for the Roosters the only notable losses were ODonnell, Mini & SBW retiring

Panthers noatable losses in that period, Tetavano, Sauce, Tamou, Burton, Capewell, May, TPJ. Also Naden & Momo that featured in GFs. Still tracking ok this year after losing Kikau & Api.

No but with Pearce’s imminent return to the roosters in 2024 we need to start preparing ourselves for his selection next year as our super sub
If he goes okay, he can be the 14 for NSW... and the 2nd to captain from the pine.

I watched Pearce's first game in Origin. He was sooo bad I was walking back to the hotel afterwards singing to myself that was the last we'll see of him. Boy was I wrong. That guy was never talented enough for Origin but NSW selected him year after year after year after year.

Pearce was always outclassed. Always. Should never have played one Origin game. Unless one wanted QLD to win that series.
The problem was there was noone better available.

Shit!

Tubbo BooBoo’s calf has succumbed to the mass of his ginormous gunt and he’s out again, Crichton to centre again I assume. Ugh f**k f**k.
