New South Wales 2016

[big hit!]

On the Moylan vs Tedesco debate................Moylan got the gig. Have to persist with him this series unless he has an absolute mare in Game 2 which is a possibility given how shit the Blues tend to go up there. The issue in Game 1 was his combo at the back with Ferguson. They need to sort that shit out.

If Tedesco is the gun he thinks and everyone reckons he is, he will continue on his upward trajectory this season and into next year where his selection cannot be denied. Injury in the few weeks leading into this series probably hurt his chances.

One thing is a given, Daley f**ked up selections in several areas for Game 1. The team lost. Whether it was by 2 or 20, the next match is a new battle the result NSW need is the same.......a WIN up there which has been nigh on impossible for this bunch in recent series.

As I said after Game 3 last year and prior to this series, it was time to bring in the new wave without Gallen, Bird, Farah & Scott. NSW's development has been set back yet another series. New blokes next year will also struggle so realistically, a series win won't be forthcoming for NSW until 2018, and that'll be 11-1 in the last 12 series and 3 on the trot for QLD. NSW selectors and coaches should hang their heads in shame for the debacle they've presided over in this time. NSW is not that inferior.

Ferguson is a flop and should be dropped. Bombs bouncing have been a feature whenever he has played wing or FB, Moylan just has to commit to anything that goes up on that side cause if its above his head Fergo would rather let it bounce. Put Tedesco on the wing he is talented enough to have an impact from there.

 

[Tommy Smith]

If he didn't get injured then Teddy would have been fullback in game 1.

He is NSW best fullback. His stats put everyone else to shame over the past 18 months.

One argument is to pick Moylan because he was there in game 1. My argument is to pick the guy who is by far the best fullback.

But hey each to their own. So long as people who adhere to the "but he was there in game 1" argument also think that Dylan Walker should be retained because "he was there in game 1".

 

[betcats]

I don't care if they pick Tedesco, hopefully he can stay fit. Its extremely unlikely they pick him at fb to debut in a must win at suncorp given Lauries conservativeness.

Comparing Moylan to Walker is f**king stupid though, Moylan was one of the top 3 guys for that spot, Walkers not in the top 30 utilities we have available and was a complete non factor besides trying to milk the worst penalty ever.

After a two point loss, you are not only conceding this series but next year's as well.

What say we just turn up to play in Brisbane and see what happens, huh?

. My argument is to pick the guy who is by far the best fullback.

Two different styles of fullback. One is an incisive runner, the other is a ball player who sets up his supports. Saying one is far better than the other, is like saying apples are far better than oranges.

The "Tedesco Lobby" just seem a little too impatient to get him into a blue jersey. It's as though you have to get him in there before he gets himself injured again or loses form.

 

[Tommy Smith]

Teddy is also a brilliant ball player. He has incrdibly quick hands. So to suggest that he is merely an incisive ball runner is a little misleading.

One live game win in Brisbane in 11 years suggests we're well and truly f**ked. We were always toast if we lost game 1. You just cant lose home games and expect to win origin series and we have now dropped home games (including a decider in 2013) in 3 of the past 4 years...and one series in 10 years says it all.

One is an incisive runner, the other is a ball player who sets up his supports.

Tedesco has both of those covered, runs a million miles an hour and sets people up.

He is by far the most dangerous fullback, just like Hayne was.

Wish I had your optimism about qld. Even though I think Matt Scott and Inglis will play better, there is a very small chance Maloney, adam Reynolds, and Moylan may just click. Scary.

 

[Caped Crusader]

Theres every chance NSW wins games 2 and 3

FMD there are some pea hearted supporters going around

 

[umina panther]

Teddy is the better fullback but Moylan is the better player

 

[Tommy Smith]

Ummmm ok?

 

[umina panther]

Moylan is a half playing fullback its pretty obvious. He'll never have the speed or power to be an elite fullback but he is easily NSW's best playmaker

Ha! Yeah that was written all over Laurie's face at the Post Origin press conference: "WooHoo!! We're gonna win!!!"

Not.

But aren't we talking about this year? NSW won the series in 1974 after all why not talk about that?

 

[T.T]

Is reynolds injured? what was up with him 2nite. Can't carry someone with that form into game 2

 

[Clifferd]

If Renoylds is injured I'd go with Townsend , nothing beats a club combo

And he isn't even a bad player to boot anyway
