Geez Mozza, why do people keep mentioning Tamou? What am I missing with this bloke?
Watched him closely the last few weeks and he's been quite good in a shit side. That being said I forgot about Klemmer so I'd have him ahead of Tamou.

He belted out 50m this weekend. Starling is hitting those heights.

Tamou has had 1 decent game in his Origin career.

In all fairness, he went off injured after playing limited minutes and he was always in the main a defensive forward. Nonetheless, I think he'll lose his place.

There's better players then him rn, we've got guys like Woods. Fifita, Klemmer, Boyd, Paulo and Vaughan fighting for those 4 spots.
 

big hit!

One swallow doesn't make a summer... He's been the form backrower the last few weeks

here's that term 'backrower' again. by backrower, do you mean an edge forward or the middle forward wearing #13?

Jackson is a decent defensive player but Cordner, Frizzell and Graham are all far more complete players. Jackson offers very little in attack so there is no point picking him off the bench.
8-Boyd
9-Farah, McInnes, Wallace (don't care they all suck anyway)
10-Fifita
11-Cordner
12-Frizzell
13-Graham

14-Peachey/Bird
15-Vaughan
16-James
17-Trbojevic

This seems like our best pack and bench rotation. There is some conjecture over the front row but this would work the best imo.

so is graham in the middle, where he never plays for cronulla?

and i hope they don't opt for mcinnes who has had just a handful of decent games. peats and wallace should be the only ones considered, and then select peats.

All I see is a f**king ruthless merkin (me) putting a Jayne lover in his place

When you make gay sexual refernces it's because you're a 'ruthless merkin' and when I do it, it's because of 'experience'? Great logic, should really look into that brain transplant.

It's kind of sad you need to talk yourself up on the internet but you're probably on suicide watch after your boyfriend signed with the Roosters anyways. For your sake I hope you make use of those drugs your dr prescribed you rather then that rope you tied to your ceiling after you heard he was leaving.

Only one insecure is the guy acting tough on the internet and getting upset when another fullback is doing well. Bet you're a little bitch when it comes face to face.

although the 13 plays in the middle you can't lump them in the same category as the front row forwards because not all teams play a strategy of a 3rd prop.

jackson is capable of defending either in the middle or on the edges, if middle then obviously the game plan is slightly more expansive, but he provides superior mobility and line speed in defence. he's our version of matt gillette.

gillett is a class above for mine.

an origin rep needs to be a high quality player on both sides of ball. those two matches last year where he played in the middle left NSW one effective ball carrier short when he was in the game. good in space on the edge, but does not put the defensive line on the back foot in the trenches, where he was positioned in the first two matches. contrast that with Frizells performance in Game 3 where he provided line bending runs and metres after 1st contact on each carry. it fatigued QLD as the game progressed.

Driving it hard up the middle and getting the defence going backwards with little time to set the defensive line is going to be more effective as the match progresses, rather than having outstanding defensive players who can't fatigue the opposition with ball in hand.

He doesnt have to play tight it could be a roving type role. He's in our best 13 so I'd have him there.
