NSW Team 2014

[PhilGould]

Dugan did that well enough IMO. But just thinking Kane Linnet could play on the left.

He did well but if GI got more space I don't know how well Dugan would of handled him.

 

[Ladmate]

If I'm selecting the team for Game 3 I blood some young talent. Yes a sweep would be brilliant in many ways, but in the long haul we can give some players valuable origin experience with little consequence.

 

[DOGS AND EELS!!!]

Well he should be given another go so we can find out. He got bumped off once, but was solid after that.

Josh Morris to replace Jennings imo with Wighton on standby. Wighton plays right but is better left. Mansour to replace Hoppa if he is ruled out.

 

[chrisD]

It's funny we are considering Wighton when his teammate has been easily better than him.

GI hasn't had much space at all though in the past few years because we haven't been giving it too him since we started selecting decent players and putting in decent strategies

I was just thinking the same thing (assuming he is a Blue).

 

[betcats]

Shame Walker is out, good game to blood him.

Tim Lafai is better than both Raiders centres and has been effective on both sides of the field. Where does his allegiance lie?

?? The only way Lafai even get considered if NSW whole backline, and backup players are injured.

Looks like J-Morris might be back for SOO3 replacing Jennings. Not a bad idea to keep Duges from maintaining his spot and Hopoate could be replaced by either Mansour, McManus, etc. I think Mansour should get his shot. Surely, he is a scoring machine individual.

Now, Cordner wants to play Origin in a winning team?? What do you think? I hate to disrupt the rhythm especially NSW 2-0. Interesting, if Daley does include him then its a possibility he will replace Watmough from the bench. I was hoping they would include T-Rex. Looks like it won't happen.

BLUES UP!

You obviously haven't watched much of Lafai if you underrate him that much.

 

[DOGS AND EELS!!!]

Daniel Tupou will have a significant impact in game 3.

 

[betcats]

Cordner can get f**ked imo, he will be back next year no doubt but this year I wouldnt want them to drop anyone who has played both games.

Josh Reynolds is f**king hopeless and should never play in a Blues jersey ever again.
I don't care that we won.

Hodkinson i can take or leave, but his Canterbury mate has been woeful in ever Origin game he's played.
Even the one he never made off the bench.

Still better than Pearce or Maloney.

 

[Dicko1]

I didn't say Lafai should be selected. Merely pointing out that he is a better option than the Raiders centres mentioned in a previous post

 

[T.S Quint]

I actually don't believe that.

And even so, there are still better options than Reynolds if you don't want Pearce or Maloney in the team.

Mate?? Let's not over exaggerate here. I've seen Lafai play and no offense here like any other player whether they are fighting for a spot or NOT?? Just be satisfied NSW have broken the drought here. It doesn't matter who they put in, however, it would sound right to choose the current team who have been in the squad from the ghetto. Now, according to current updates it seems Jennings and possibly Hopoate is the only replacement in the NSW squad. Then again, maybe one more could be a inclusion 'Cordner' but will see who Daley decides with here. All I can say NSW is looking really good no matter what

Like the rest of the critics, you are looking for the perfection. You can never know the outcome of a game by saying this player should be in, etc?? The rhythm is so important and is surely the difference in any game of Origin...long story to explain!

This is the team we should go with:

T-Rex will cause havoc on the field.
NSW UP!

McManus. That is just depressing

McManus. That is just depressing

Probably not the best choice but he's been there before and won't let anyone down.
