2024 Origin III - Wed 17 Jul - QLD 4-14 NSW @ Suncorp

Playing a specialist half on the bench is suicide.

If your 'utility' can't defend at centre then they shouldn't be in the squad.

NSW lost two series due to horrible makeshift centre play.

Yeah, like how we lost games two and three this year with noted centre Connor Watson on the bench...

Watson can't play any position at NRL level let alone rep level.
I guess his suicidal stupid offload did break the game open......

Luai could cover centre or even back row given his size

Can't believe anyone is taking your bait @Mr. Shaman

Shhhhh.

Don’t stop the funs.

Moses has now won three games in his career just shy of the age of thirty in which both teams are eliminated if they lose.

Absolutely clutch.

Yeah, like how we lost games two and three this year with noted centre Connor Watson on the bench...

Cool.

What about game 3 2020, game 1 and game 2 2023.

Lost because the team couldn't handle a backline reshuffle.

Well it's less obvious than yours sport

I genuinely think Mitch had a 9/10 game in game 2.
In game 3 he choked hard in the first half and then got a little better to end it

 

[Maximus]

Who has more series wins?
Who has more man of the matches?

Who has set up more tries?

Yes and I think cleft chins are sexy

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Straight facts not bait @Chins get the wins

 

[T-Boon]

There’s a place for Cleary.

14. Cleary (not Captain)

Yep. With Joey they made him hooker (2001?) because he was also probably the best hooker in the game as well as the best half. Cleary would be nearly useless anywhere except halfback. Remember that next time anyone tries to say Cleary is better than Joey.

Hahaha Nath was a hooker and a 5/8 coming through honey bun.

Joey had more talent but Nathan has already had a better career and he's only 26

We will unlikely ever get to see it, but Cleary has the tools to be a gun 9.

 

[johns_reds]

He was MOM in the first game no? Bit of an overreaction

He’s too old, time for the new brigade

 

[chrisD]

Between injuries and Luai going where careers go to die it’s not like to be an issue, but if it is then one of them will slot into 14. Cleary can play DH, slot in at lock, and Moses can cover FB and in a pinch centre or wing. We are the fearless f**k you better side now that we always should have been, we’ll pick all the talent and blow them away with it.

 

[DOGS AND EELS!!!]

Slater not picking Fifita a genuine game breaker for Kaufusi who played 10 minutes in G2 and 16 minutes in G3 is an absolute shocker.

Fifita’s defence would have cost QLD big time. The came was tight until the final 20 and Queenslands incredible defensive effort was the biggest reason why.

 

[mozza91]

Who has more series wins?

Comparing Cleary’s 14 games to Moses 4 games stats wise is redundant.

Although anyone with eyes would’ve seen that Moses’ game 2 performance was light years ahead of anything Cleary has done at Rep level.

Cleary is obviously a great club player but is incapable of taking the step up to Origin/Test level.
