Farahs Replacement

[Vic Mackey]

It's just a shame josh mccrone isn't playing first grade more reguarly

He is a Daley selection all over

 

[Craig Johnston]

9. Peats

17. Austin

would love to see this double act IF farah is out, but no doubt it will be ennis. and that's not to say he wouldn't deserve it, but there's too much on the line

[Mogsheen Jadwat]

I think whoever it is needs to be a fresh face - cameron smith is running out of scalps and he needs a few more before he finishes up, Peats and the newly crowned GOAT Austin would fill out his illegally acquired trophy cabinet.

 

[GongPanther]

Ennis will be a shoe-in.

 

[Marshall_magic]

The thought of having Pearce, Hodkinson and Reynolds in our spine is genuinely terrifying.

 

[Someone]

why not throw peats in and groom him. somebody has to take over the role once farah retires.

9. Peats

14. Hinchcliffe (replacing cordner)

once farah comes back throw peats in at 14. has to be better than having a useless hole running second rower when you need a spark.

 

[Rhyno]

Should be Peats

 

[Gippsy]

Yep, a player for the future. Peats.

You know it makes sense.

What's the record tackle count in Origin?

If Farah plays he's gonna be targeted all night long. He's normally between 50-60 tackles as it is.

 

[DC_fan]

Nathan Peats for mine.

What would you guys think of putting Peats on the bench and starting Farah (Ennis if Farah is out). We didn't use the 4 forward bench well in game 1 anyway. Gallen, Scott, Merrin & Hoffman are capable of playing 80 minutes, Woods could play 60 easily. If Farah gets injured during the game you have a specialist hooker, if he doesn't you bring Peats on for 20 minutes in the 2nd half to play the same role as DCE does for QLD. Something like:

8. Woods
9. Farah/Ennis
10. Gallen
11. Scott
12. Hoffman
13. Merrin

14. Peats
15. Klemmer
16. Tamou
17. Fifita/Frizell

I dont mind the idea but Id prefer someone like Hinchcliffe or even Aubusson who can easily play in the backrow if needed. Not sure Peats would be suited to that

He has played a bit of lock, but I get what you mean

 

[Craig Johnston]

both peats and hinchcliffe play a lot more direct as backrowers than aubusson

 

[legend]

Rein should be given a go IMO if Farah isn't fit for game two.

 

[big hit!]

hinchcliffe, hinchcliffe, hinchcliffe.

if not starting, then on the bench.

bloke should've been selected in origin 3 years ago.
