Hoppa, McManus, Taufua and Dugan are on the shortlist imo. If this was a dead rubber Wighton or Walker would be more likely.
I like the idea of McManus, Dugan, Hopoate, and Mansour. I totally agree with you playing against a decimated QLD team here. Surely it can't go wrong. If everyone is still skeptic about Mansour then maybe its safer to go with either McManus, Hopoate or Dugan. Although, they are quite ordinary for their club but they do have some origin experience. As much as I would like to see Mansour (not really sold on Hopoate after last night, too shaky to pick him now). I think it would be better to go with a more experience player such as Dugan, and McManus??Daley said he is basically leaning away from selecting an Origin rookie. Mentioned McManus, Dugan, Hopoate and Mansour (not sure how Mansour isn't a rookie though?)
I personally don't get it, you're one up and playing in Sydney against an injury decimated Queensland team. Couldn't ask for a much safer game in which to debut a player
if daley goes with beau scott at right centre, dugan on the wing outside him, and hoffman as edge defender that side because bird plays on the left, say goodbye to this series. it also tells me that laurie is no better coach than his old raiders halves partner, ricky. when you are one up at home, this is when you blood one of walker, wighton, or mansour. not game 3 under immense pressure because you have messed up at home.
He's having a drink.Is Idris injured or something?
I'm going to drop the name, and see what happens: Brett Stewart.
You know we can have brett on fullback and move hayne to the halfs where he can freely move around and do his plays. I would personally prefer hayne at FB but the way the Dogs halves played in origin 1 where they did nothing apart from giving the ball to hayne to produce something in which they he can't keep doing at fb so might as well just move him to the halves with stewart to fb where yesterday he proved he has still got some footy in him.
I'm not sure how this opinion would make people react but like i said it is just an opinion
Anyone who suggests moving Hayne from full back to anywhere else is an idiot and does not deserve to have eyes to watch footy and therefore should have them burnt out with hot pokers
There, I said it
