2023 State of Origin ~ Game 3 *12th July* ~ Team List

[emjaycee]

I know his form hasn't been the best however I think his effort is always there so I wouldn't be disappointed with Lomax in the centres for NSW. I think one of the key differences between NSW and QLD is attitude and effort, not skill and so if we are looking for 2 centres that would do the job, they should be picked from:
- Staggs
- Penisini
- Lomax
- Best

 

[the phantom menace]

I think Crichton will be retained by Freddy in the centres if fit. But yes, the partner should now be one of the above - you'd think Staggs as he's been selected before, though Penisini must be close to knocking at the door...

 

[Gazzamatta]

Before Talakai i’d have

Staggs
Burton
Gutho
Penisini
Taas
Ramien
Best

and about 10 second rowers who would do a better job despite being out of position

*Cook

He's played one game. I'm sick of see all the one and done players for nsw, at some point they where good enough and and the next minute they ain't. Makes no sense.

If you play for Penrith you get a 2nd, 3rd, 4th chance.

In other selection news, Eels ironman J’maine Hopgood has been rewarded for an impressive season at Parramatta with the 24-year-old named as Queensland’s 19th man for Origin III.

[Gazzamatta]

Fantastic news. Very much deserved. Im biased but Id have Hoppy in my team every day over Yeo.

 

[the phantom menace]

Congrats Hogood... 19th man still gets to play club footy, yeah?

 

[Sensei Cobra]

Perfect, well deserved and 19th man is released to play for his club yeh ?

 

[Sensei Cobra]

FFS

 

[Gazzamatta]

I hate pay walls. Grrrrrr.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Talakai is a fat tub of shit, he should be nowhere near an origin jersey.

The last straw for me with Freddy was 3 straws ago.

If Talakai gets picked.

Can someone plesse put Freddy and Brandy into a cannon and fire them to the middle east.

 

[Twizzle]

well done Hoppy

 

[Sensei Cobra]

Do we a team yet ?…. The latest media speculation is walker to 14, Best in the centres, RCG gets a guernsey, halves stay as they are, young dropped

The confusion continues

 

[Soren Lorenson]

Walker to 14 would just about do me. At least Hynes can play fullback.

 

[Pazza]

Walker to 14 would just about do me. At least Hynes can play fullback.

Why not cook at 14. If they pick walker at 14 there needs to be a full clean out of the Blues system. Talk about clueless.

 

[Incorrect]

Which Walker are we talking about? Cody or Dylan? Dylan Walker was being talked about for a bench utility role earlier in the Origin period

 

[Pazza]

Didn't even think of Dylan

 

[Soren Lorenson]

f**k. Gutho in according to reports.

[Sensei Cobra]

Cody, but not confirmed just more speculation. Latest one is Gutho Is in.
Hmmmm
Seems to be a lot of different selections being sprouted in various media outlets
