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?
Yes.
As Hutty said, the probability of NSW going up to Lang Park and evening the series is extremely low, and the recent record is there for everyone to see.
Next year's series? Yes, mark it down as lost too.
A new coach will bring in new players for Gallen, Bird and Farah. This is a given. No person willing to call themselves a coach will bring them back for another series, especially if 2016 is indeed lost on wednesday week. They should not have even been selected for this series. This basically means 3 new players/debutants on top the usual 3 or 4 replacements NSW usually make, especially when a new coach does come in and has a different view on players that Daley has.
What does that mean? A bunch of blokes new to Origin against blokes who handle it like brushing their teeth. In Daley's attempt to save his own face and eck out what he could with the old guard, he has set NSW future back another series or two.
NSW have never gone into a series to set itself up for the future. It's always just about 'form' and the next game. Picking a team with an eye for the future was what we needed out of Daley. He's failed miserably. Sure, the Blues may well have lost the series doing this too, but it would've been a sacrifice for future success.
Instead, Bozo and NSW do it the same way they have always done it over the last 10 years. That's turned out 9 series loses, and 1 win.
