NSW Blues 2024

[Chins get the wins]

What worked last year in Origin III was Murray starting at lock with Yeo on the bench and Moses 7, Walker at 6 (MOTM).

I agree that with Souths back in some form, Mitchell, Walker and Murray teaming up would be a good fit. But they won't drop Luai and Mitchell's commitment is in question just because he said he's worried about his club. I thought they all say they focus on club footy and rep footy then takes care of itself. Do any of the other players declare that they put Origin ahead of their club? Seems a bit excessive.

Beating the Titans isn’t form

So it should have ended last year? They tried that but your mate got scared, realised he doesn't belong and got an "injury"

Whatever

I would appreciate if you didn't let the facts get in the way of my rant

I said "some".

 

[Stinkfinger]

if you're bringing Latrell in, you replace Luai with Walker.

Perfect reason not to bring him in. Other candidates don't have to bring their baggage. Luai has been very good. Last time Mitchell really dominated Origin it was off Luai passes.

Last time Latrell dominated, his brother was 75 kg heavier

 

[RecordBreakingMaroons.]

The thing I worry about with Latrell is that they withhold food for a few days before the game and promise him all you can eat, for a win. A food-motivated Latrell is unstoppable.

Tell the ball boys and girls to keep their distance.

Surely Young gets dropped for a prop

Edwards
To’o
S Crichton
Mitchell
Lomax

Odds on now you would think.

Sorry , but what 'worked' was qld up 2 in the series and you got them at 80%, or just above NRL level

 

[isaiah]

yep should be named on Sunday

Moses has done better in Origin than Hynes

if you're bringing Latrell in, you replace Luai with Walker.

Yeo as the 10 and Jurbo is goneski (thanks for your efforts Jakey)

Murray on the bench to replace McInnes at 13 (let McInnes take the sting out)

McInnes is Reuben lite.

Talk it down with mitigating factors all you like. There's a degree of validity to what you say but it's spin nonetheless which is moot.

Exactly. No such thing as a dead rubber in Origin. Especially for the Queenslanders.

I thought spin was, talking up the one game you won in a best of 3 series.

Would be if that was the point of what was being said. Thing is, it wasn't.

If we don't pick Api we deserve to lose

Whether you do or you don't in truth. I'll cheer that one.
