[hineyrulz]

I honestly couldn’t really f**k, like most of the players out there last night.

It would have been more entertaining if most of the players out there could really f**k... might not have been able to be broadcast on Ch 9 though.

Oh, you meant "give" a f**k...

 

[King-Gutho94]

I wonder if the NRL still have the cardboard cut outs from covid lockdown that put in the stadium.

They might need them for origin 3.

I won’t bother watching the 3rd. It’s a dead rubber and I don’t have to listen to the deadshits on Ch9.
I also hope not a single Eel is picked. As someone else said, don’t want them to get injured for nothing.
On a separate note, I can count on a single hand, how many journalists in Rugby league have any idea about the game. They seem to all have one thing in common, a complete lack of understanding of the game

 

[Matty Bhoy]

If I were selecting your Blues side for Game 3 (and thank fk I’m not)… I’d go with this, considering what’s available right now. If Trell is out, Burton.


1. Gutherson
2. To'o
3. Campbell Graham
4. Mitchell
5. Crichton
6. Walker
7. Moses
8. Hass
9. Cook
10. RCG
11. Koloamatangi
12. Martin
13. Murray

14. Robson
15. Paulo
16. Young
17. Yeo

I'll be very interested to see what Souths do with Latrell. They will do whatever it takes to ensure he doesn't get picked for game 3 now I reckon. He's not playing this week. They play the Warriors the week after. If he plays that game, he'll be in the Origin side. Would they consider sitting him out of that game too to rule him out of Origin? Would not be surprised.

Then, in the shortened round before Origin 3, they play the Dogs....they'd probably list him on an extended bench and bring him in on game day... Actually hope this is what happens just to stick it to the Origin obsessed crew to show that in a dead rubber, clubs should have more sway on who is and isn't available for their team

TBF not too many north of the border ever see them as “dead rubbers”.

That’s why there’s so many of them?

 

[Gary Gutful]

Turn it inside out and shake it out.

 

[Eelogical]

It's interesting to see how the Blues supporters respond by attending the game. I hear that Gallen is blurting on about using it as an opportunity to blood new lads for 2024. I'd love to go but I might be in Yamba.

The fact Souths play in NZ next Friday.

I dare say they hold him back and wouldn't bother flying him over there.

Which leaves Freddy in a pickle he wouldn't have played for nearly 2 months.

And surely Latrell would have regain his conditioning and match fitness.

Maybe blood Gallen or Barrett as coach.

 

[Eelogical]

Maybe blood Gallen or Barrett as coach.

I don't believe that either of these options are the answer. We'll continue to pick coaches and players that won't aim up until NSW change their culture from within. Bluesball!

Got your answer

 

[eels_fan]

Shows how ridiculous it was even picking him for origin 2…. He was never, ever, a chance of playing

 

[King-Gutho94]

Latrell is in the same league as turbo both are lucky to get half a season of games but clubs are paying $1million plus a season.

Whatever we pay Gutho is a steal.

Only Dylan Edwards is probably better value atm.

 

[TheParraboy]

What Parra fan in their right mind would go to origin 3 and waste their coin like that on a dead rubber, and possibly watching self centered knob Luai go around again in the sky blue , or will it be dark blue?

Better bang for your buck when you got Parra playing at lovely Commbank Stadium the weekends either side of origin 3

 

[Gazzamatta]

.

Got your answer

Im sure Freddy and The Ventriloquist Dummy will select him regardless.

 

[JokerEel]

Does Latrell get his SOO money just for getting picked in the side ?

 

[the phantom menace]

Well, Lattrell's now already ruled out before the Game III side is selected.

No point wasting yourself in a dead rubber.
