Be fair to say Laurie and his father already have a strategic plan for Pearce for PM , he has shown he does not have what it takes when the pressure is on , a perfect politician

Pearce might be all at sea during an Origin match, but let's not stoop so low as to compare him to a politician. There are none lower.

I honestly think that If Hayne is at fullback Pearce can work at halfback because Hayne is a genuine ball player, If Dugan is at fullback then they need a more creative halves pairing and I don't think NSW have much. Outside of Carney the other halves like reynolds are more organizers and has a good kicking game rather then a genuine ball player. For me I would go a backline of:

1 Hayne
2 Morris
3 Jennings
4 Hopoate (assuming he gets back to his best)
5 Ferguson

How sweet of you to take note. If no-one else but you takes note, my thoughts have been not in vain.

9 in a row. :D

Well its certainly going to be 9 in a row if Laurie and co dont have access to your rugby league analysis. Im sure they are scanning these forums every day hoping for even just a small acorn of wisdom that you so selfishly keep squirreled away in that head of yours.

I totally doubt that anyone with any influence would even have the slightest clue about one word I say or even of my posting at all. I just like to make certain, in case.

Anyone with any sense should examine anything anyone(including me) says for value or otherwise.

I would listen to the world's greatest fool simply because no-one is wrong 100% of the time. An analogy I use, is that if I were to dismiss anybody outright and their input was valid in that moment, who is the fool me or them? Me for not listening.

I love seeing QLD win Origin matches. I won't say one thing that I remotely suspect could offer even a sub-atomic insight to NSW. If I really had any sense I'd be talking-up Gallen and Pearce etc. I know that if Gallen was on the field for Game 3, penalties awarded to QLD would have been more numerous. Pearce is a boon to QLD. The fact that it would seem all of the upper echelon of NSW decision makers are fixated on him, has been a blessing and looks to continue to be so.

Your paranoia is getting the better of you. NSW will win origin in 2014, and Pearce will be playing hooker but wearing the 13 jersey.

That's not much of a prognostication. Daley himself said prior to Game 3 that if Pearce wasn't involved at halfback in 2014 he could be playing as Hooker.

Weren't you the guy who has predicted a NSW win for the last 3 years and said that Pearce would be Captaining the Australian team by now?

Stick to what you are good at: Go back to watching Pearce replays whilst wanking.

1. Jarryd Hayne
2. Brett Morris
3. Josh Morris
4. Jamal Idris
5. Blake Ferguson
6. Jarrod Mullen
7. Todd Carney
8. Tim Grant
9. Robbie Farrah
10. James Tamou
11. Greg Bird
12. Luke Lewis
13. Paul Gallen

14. Albert Kelly
15. Andrew Fifita
16. Trent Merrin
17. Anthony Watmough

Gallen should move into prop after the opening 15. Grant and Tamou are big dudes and are perfect for the opening impact. Gallen is better in the front row when you're trying to grind down a win.

Picked Albert Kelly because I thought from Game 3 that Farrah does need to take a break, he made a few mistakes due to fatigue.

Picked Jamal Idris on the right, why? He's good in the air, the only centre who's out muscled Inglis and because he reads the game quite well now.

I'm not going to speculate on Hoppa, he hasn't played in 2 years. He may be a bit done on match fitness.

Mullen and Carney are simply the best halves NSW have.

Edited my team to fit in Fergo. Finally saw what they hype was about last night. He outplayed Jennings even in a losing team. Jennings outside that try in the first game wasn't all that. Josh Morris is better and a much better defender and he'll be on his preferred side with his brother. Jennings didn't cover his opposite too well, Morris has always been solid, even on Inglis.

It's simple, he's a safe player and a good finisher. Cronk and Thurston will bomb the sh!t out of any winger that they see weakness in under the high ball. If they didn't I'd have Uate in there no doubt.

He offers sh!t all! Hayne has to be at the back, did you not see him in game 1? Why on earth would you want to play NSW's most dangerous player out of position? Make's f**k all sense. Jamal Idris deserves a chance and Morris should have his jersey retained. Jennings is a tad unfortunate to miss out in my team, but I have to say watching Hodges carve up that side was worrying.

LOL you question Hayne? You're a bit loose in the head buddy! Did you see in game 1 the try he scored where he went past Smith, Inglis and Slater? or that try saver he pulled on Smith and than Slater close to the end of the match? Hayne is my favourite player and he is that good. Ask every QLDer who they fear the most, more often than not it will Hayne.

You know most people hate a player after they leave there team, why would Idris being a former Bulldog make me have a soft spot for him? It should make me hate him then anything! Have you seen him play at all this season? He was a serious contender for game 3 till his injury. He's had 1 origin game and he looked pretty good, does he not deserve a shot 3 years later when he's way better then before? Because Pearce has failed for 4 years and you're still giving him another chance.
