NSW Team 2017

[Spot On]

no Bird? interesting. so both Walker and Bird will be punted like all the other new blood NSW bring in.

also, that won't be the bench. you need 3 middle forwards/props. graham isn't one of them. if Bird/Moylan/Walker and Graham/Jackson are two of the interchange, then NSW is f**ked, and by default so are Daley and Sterlo.

There should be 1x utility back/half, and the other 3 need to be capable of playing in the middle to rotate the starting props and middle forward (Woods, Klemmer & Frizell in the above example) onto the bench, and be f**king effective at it too, not just a fresh body.

Dude, you've got to let left, right and middle go. Many of these blokes can play where needed for short stints and longer if necessary. No worries.

Sterlo was on the money yeah?

It's all good!!

Teddy is Bae and has been the best fullback in the game for 3 years. No contest.

Boyd has been great the past 2 years but that's in the Broncos side. How did Darius go at the Knights again? So bad he cried for daddy.

Put Teddy at the Broncos and Boyd at the Tigers alongside Moses and Brooks for 3 years and lets see who the majority think is the games best fullback.

Like I said. No contest. Teddy has GoaT potential as a fullback and I've been walking around with tight underwear on for weeks to cover the boner I still have after we signed him.

Gutted for Tigers fans but ecstatic as a Rooster.

Erm Boyd was fine at the Knights. Made a prelim against you guys IIRC. In a side that overachieved he was one of our best. And I hate the prick.

 

[Pedge1971]

Please no. Get Vaughan or JDB.

Whats wrong with Lovett?

 

[MilkShark]

Are we still picking Jackson the plodder after he and his side got destroyed on the weekend. Hope not.

 

[Clifferd]

No reason Mansour doesnt come straight back in

Unless injury strikes, probably not

 

[Tommy Smith]

Luke Lewis wouldn't look our of place swapping straight in for Frizell if he's out.

The bloke is a league legend.

Brings a lot of experience and a level head to the table as well

obviously click-bait. as if you'd select a rookie for his origin debut after playing 1 game in the NRL coming back from a decent injury.

 

[Captain Apollo]

After the way they beat Qld, only injury is going to see a change in the NSW team for Origin 2.

frizell all clear, good opportunity to redeem his game 1 performance.

Thank you oh mighty lord

Stinky bait.

Its going to be hard to leave Mansour out but I don't see anyone else getting a look in bar injury. Personally id bring Dylan Walker in at right centre and leave Dugan outside him.

It would be tough to drop Brett Morris but Mansour is such a beast, 200 plus metres, half a dozen tackle breaks and a nice wingers finish in his first game all year aftera knee reco. The thought of Fifita, Hayne and Tedesco running off the back of Mansours set starters is fairly enticing.

 

[RazorRam0n]

Stinky bait.

wachu talking about willis

 

[Tommy Smith]

Mansour is no chance.

He's played 1 game back from a torn ACL.

Zero chance of being picked whether you like it or not.

 

[Clifferd]

I have no doubt Mansour belongs in the origin arena. But by the time origin 2 rolls around he will only have played 2 games coming from a serious knee injury (if he was selected)

Plus the fact they won't change a winning team

He'll be there next year 100%

 

[RazorRam0n]

when i originally said he should be back for game 2 that was assuming dropping the suncorp game, but with that result the entire team deserves to be back up no question. i'd have him ahead of turbo for game 3 though if it somehow becomes a decider. cant throw a debutant in for a do or die at suncorp

 

[OldPanther]

Mansour is no chance.

He's played 1 game back from a torn ACL.

Zero chance of being picked whether you like it or not.

Of course he won't be there. It's just easy to wonder for a second after how strong he was and the fact the NSW wingers were only good rather than amazing. I honestly want them to stick with success.

 

[RazorRam0n]

Field position graph confirms what I said about NSW wrestling field position after a good start from qld credit Jackson for limiting their impact and Pearce for kicking

frizell all clear, good opportunity to redeem his game 1 performance.

you mean Daley playing him more minutes? he basically took the hit for Graham to come on and then stayed off until 65mins.
