Well if Freddy picked him last year instead of that useless Talakai he might still be available.

I call BS on last years axing had nothing to do with his rep retirement.

It would have planted a seed in his mind why should I bother with this shit when Freddy and Brandy just tossed him out because he caught covid.


I reckon he and papa retiring is so they concentrate on the raiders. One last crack at the premiership

I didn't really pay much attention but just assumed we had a bye before the 3rd game until you just said that.
Then I looked and found that we are the only team to not have a bye before 1 of the Origin games. Add that to the 5 times we have to play teams coming off a bye and 3 five day turnarounds which are both the most in the league.
We really got screwed with the draw.
Our draw is nothing short of a disgrace.

It only gets better between rounds 20-22

We have B2B 6 days breaks including travel to Townsville then Melbourne in consecutive weeks.

Round 20 - Titans at home Sunday night
Round 21 - Cowboys away - Saturday Night
Round 22 - Storm away - Friday Night

Then we play Brisbane at the Gabba in Round 24 off a 5 day break.

Jake and Turbo MUST be selected, and serious consideration given to Haumole Olakau’atu in forwards, and Jason Saab on the wing. Rueben Garrick should be given the No 18 jumper as a stand by....Junior Paulo produced nothing coming off the bench in Game 1...He's had his chance - blood a new No 14, Sean Keppie looks the goods and is made for SOO
Keppies defence is abysmal

Moses 100% is the 7. Reynolds is a game manager, Moses can win you a game just off his running game. Has a great kicking gams as well. Must win for NSW so Freddie has to go with with Mitchell Moses. He has to be bold.
Rubbish! Moses doesn't perform in big games and especially in origin. We can't let him have one timely good game against the lowly Bulldogs, walk into the team and fail. The half should be either Reynolds or Burton with Luai retaining his spot. Unfortunately Nicho has to miss out because of a lack of long kicking game.

It has been very convenient for opposition fans to suggest Mitchell Moses is a flat track bully.

I am an opposition fan but I have to say I think Mitchell Moses is a fine player.

Im not suggesting he may be the Blues saviour, I’m just suggesting he is the best option in terms of giving the Blues a shot at victory.

No doubt regardless of the teams involved, the flow of the game, the Maroons will just find a way to win, it’s just what they do.

Anyway you think my suggestion is bullshit, fair play to you I guess.

Says Moses can't perform in the big games.

Then names Reynolds orBurton as his halfback 😂
