And Cartwright next year. Only a matter of time before he's the best backrower in the comp, he has everything.

Moeroa says hi.


I think next year would be too early for either. The only guy from that age group who's ready for origin beyond doubt is David Klemmer and David Klemmer is a freak of nature. He'll be the captain of Australia one day.

On a forum full of biased wankers you manage to be on a whole other level by yourself and for two teams! You are very very special.

Idk if Klemmer is as good as you say. He's developing well though and I wouldn't mind seeing him in Origin if the other props get injured.

Cartwright and Moeroa are a couple years off Origin. Let them consistently start and perform for their club teams first.

Klemmer was the shinning light in a very poor Australian team last year, he's already proved himself at international level and I'm pretty sure he'll be able to take another step to origin. Also the thing is, he's only 21 ffs!

Agreed with your statement about moeroa and cartwright. I basically wrote the same thing in the post above you.

In 5 years time I could see a backrow for nsw looking something like

11. Tevita Pangai
12. Tepai Moeroa
13. Bryce Cartwright

14. Trent Merrin
15. Tariq Sims

Dugan
B. Morris
Jennings
J.morris
Ferguson
J. Reynolds
Hodkinson
Gallen
B.scott
Bird
Fifita
Farah
Woods

Bench-

Merrin
Lewis
Watmough
Tamou
this is still the one and only chance of extending the world record one in a row run you are on.

THE Sydney Roosters have suffered a huge blow with gun centre Blake Ferguson ruled out for up to four months after injuring his ankle.
Ferguson was injured during the second half of the Roosters’ win over the Raiders on Sunday, and scans on Monday revealed the extent of the ankle ligament problem.
“Ferguson will undergo surgery tomorrow and it is expected that he will be unavailable for selection for four months,” a Roosters statement said.

Laurie Daley likes to pick club combos. The Roosters left edge and the Roosters halves have been head and shoulders above anyone else. The Canterbury halves are not in the contest (Josh Reynolds is injured anyway).

Dugan is inferior to Moylan.

The team:

Matt Moylan

Brett Morris, Josh Morris, Michael Jennings, Daniel Tupou

James Maloney
Mitchell Pearce

Trent Merrin
Greg Bird, Ryan Hoffman
Paul Gallen, Robbie Farah, Andrew Fifita,


Interchange: Boyd Cordner, Anthony Watmough, David Klemmer, Aaron Woods,

Kade Snowden has already failed at that level. he was so bad it wasn't funny.

Have you even watched him this year? Robbie Farah "failed" when he had his first couple games before being left out for a year or 2 then had another shot

Snowden would be excellent if he continues his form. He's playing very tough football and would be a much better pick than Tamou

Also Watmough and Lewis especially are looking shot. They shouldn't go near the origin arena now.

Lewis is shot and has been for ages. Watmough will still ut in no matter what. He's the type of player that typifies the blues. Puts the jumper on and grows 2 feet and plays out of his skin.

If we don't have a bloke that can pull pints out of his arse then f**k the Dogs halves off and bring in Maloney and Pearce (i'd rather Maloney and Hodkinson) Daley has said he will pick club halves that play together.

Keary wanted to be a marroon so that rules out the souths halves (in my mind) Reynolds does jack all in attack and his enthusiasm is confused for talent. Hodkinson is a decent half and would be good with Maloney imo

Pearce is playing good football though

With the backs i'd have Dugan at the back with the regulars in the wings and centres. Hoppa and Tupou to fight out for the other wing spot.

Forwards. Gallen to lock and punt Bird (he may not be available anyway)

Farah will be picked automatically but i think Peats is biting at his heals especially if he puts in more efforts like he did v Souths

Tamou - gone. Snowden in
Jackson to debut
Watmough and Scott to bring the usual aggression and passion. Fafita back in too

Also i'd like to see Tariq Sims pushing for selection too if Jackson doesn't make it
