There's no argument for playing an inferior player in the more influential position, just a bunch of shit dribbling. Hayne is easily the most potent NSW attacking player and a million times more influential at fullback than centre, and Morris and Jennings are both better than Dugan. Hayne plays fullback game 3 tries don't get blown and we win, just like the last and ridiculously only time he has played fullback, and unlike every time Dugan has ever played fullback for NSW.

Kelly is that much better than his white contempories

Bit of an overstatement, Kelly has a lot of great skills, but he isn't a player I'd say has much composure either. He still has improvement and is yet to play in a big game

Right centre is NSW biggest weakness outside of the halves. Its made worse by Qlds most potent player being at left centre

Im in two minds about where to play Hayne tbh. I think we need to see where Hoppa plays and how he performs
If hoppa just bursts out of the gate and plays his best for the first half of next year I'd actually be fine with him being FB for the blues, and hayne right centre. He's that good.

Would be kind of weird though if Hayne was FB for the eels and hopp centre and then you switched them around for SOO.

3. Michael Jennings
4. Jarryd Hayne
5. Will Hopoate
6. Jarrod Mullen
7. Todd Carney
8. Paul Gallen
9. Robbie Farah
10. James Tamou
11. Anthony Watmough
12. Greg Bird
13. Glenn Stewart

14. Andrew Fifita
15. Kade Snowden

Dugan becomes too selfish at Origin level and doesn't pass. G Stewart is a myth at rep level and maybe Snowden too, although he's only played a game or two so far.

Strongest team right now IMO:

1. Hayne
2. Morris
3. Ferguson
4. Jennings
5. Hopoate
6. Mullen
7. Carney
8. Gallen
9. Farah
10. Grant
11. Lewis
12. Bird
13. Merrin

14. Cordner
15. Watmough
16. Fifita
17. Tamou

Guys like Leilua, Kelly, J Morris, Fensom and Maloney should be thereabouts also.

:lol::lol::lol:
A player who is born with natural talent ,who plays what is in front of him,Reacts on instinct is not coached by anyone...
If you think henry somehow made JT a champion player you are dreaming.
Jt was all class long before Henry got to NQ.
I never said Henry made JT a champion player.... you clearly need to visit specsavers.
Henry specifically said he will take care of Alby and Sezer and with Henry previously coaching the likes of JT he will be able to incorporate some of the things he did with JT and pass it on to Alby.
Don't you think since Henry coached JT for a bit more than 3 years that he will know his game well enough? How he prepares and trains himself before games? These little things Henry can teach Alby. That's the whole point of Henry being assistant coach.

Idris should be a lock for a bench spot, covering centres and forwards and being a genuine impact player that could create tries from nothing and alter the momentum with bone-crunching hits. He's utility and impact in one man. It amuses me no end that NSW think they're good enough to not pick idris, his faults not withstanding. I acknowledge his faults, and say "and?", like you guys have this big line of superior players.

QLD is a bit the same with Dave Taylor though.

Idris needs to play consistant club footy first. His defence against set plays has been terrible in the past but most of all its his attitude that has kept him out of the NSW side recently

Haha people disagree with chrissyDerp so theyre suddenly talking shit! Your love affair is approaching Tommy Smith-SBW levels

They're shit talking and so they're dribbling shit, pretty simple equation, cause and effect. Trying to cover the "weakness" at centre by playing the best attacking player in NSW out of position and in a less influential position for the Origin losing, try blowing and mistake machine that is Dugan is simple shit dribbling and it makes complete sense you'd support it.

Can't believe I forgot Merrin. One of my favourite players. Yeah I'd make a straight swap, Merrin in for G. Stewart.
