2024 Origin II - Wed 26 Jun - NSW 38-18 QLD @ MCG

[Rising from the Ashes]

What is Billy's issue with David Fifita? He is clearly a better player then both Su'A and Nanai.. and the bench players.

 

[Sime_11]

Edwards passed the ball more in his debut than Tedesco did during his career - clearly a team first guy

Moses, Haas & both Crichtons outstanding

Different atmosphere for decider - no way Qld concede 30+ in the decider

 

[King hit]

Credit where it's due. Moses had a big game on a big stage for once.

He took parramatta to the grand final in a hostile environment in Townsville. That’s all you need to know whether he can deliver in a big game

Ain’t nobody but bitter Roosters fans and QLDers saying Tedesco should’ve been in the squad from the beginning over Edwards.

The only thing Tedesco has over Edwards is facial structure. How Edwards lives with himself day to day without possessing a chin is a real head scratcher.

His defence

 

[Mr. Shaman]

His defence

Lucky for Billy Nanai has been smoked in defence both games. Nanai’s aerial threat is dead now that Tedesco is gone.

Edit - wouldn’t drop him if I were a QLD selector. Bench Nanai start Fifita drop Gapewell.

Angus v Fifita wowowow

You can’t just blame one guy in the QLD team for their defence last night. With that type of momentum against you, it’s almost impossible to stop the onslaught.

capewell should be gone but don’t you think they would need someone there to provide cover to the outside backs?

I’m not, but as a Blue I’d rather face Nanai than Fifita.

 

[Marshall_magic]

Madge absolutely f**ked himself picking him as skipper

Reminds me of when we had to play a peak Jarryd Hayne on the wing so Kurt Gidley could be shoehorned into the starting side.

Maybe a lack of chin and hair cancel each other out??

Even that dude has a better passing game than Squid games.

Nanai has showed more at origin then David Fifita ever has in the past.

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

And he's blundered plenty more.

Steve Price provides mentor services to Edwards.

True but Su’A is awful that’s the change and he can’t go worse than Kurt Gapewell

 

[Nealo 12]

Teddy would of hogged it and gone himself and stepped into the defence in that try scenario where Edwards passed to Latrell for his try

 

[Reflector]

+ delaying seeing his newborn daughter

 

[King hit]

+ delaying seeing his newborn daughter

And he has only changed her once. I remember he said this on triple m and Girdler went off about it.
