NSW Team 2017

[redvscotty]

As shit as Pearce has been, he always seems to have Thaidays measure in Origin defensively.

Why has Jackson the bum been playing for our state ahead of Lewis?

 

[LatK7]

i think most of you lot need to accept that there is no universal agreeance on contentious positions, and just support the team that is announced.

I would accept that...except agreeance isn't a word so no dice

 

[DOGS AND EELS!!!]

Why has Jackson the bum been playing for our state ahead of Lewis?

I think he was moved on a bit prematurely.

 

[King hit]

Bird, Fifita and Graham would have their spots secured after that game you would hope

 

[big hit!]

17-man squad from some sources and being thrown about as the real deal......unless there are any major developments over the weekend

And Lewis too. Bird 18th man maybe

All reports have been Wallace will be the Hooker.

Lewis should be seriously considered for a bench spot

I haven't heard those reports.

Everything I've heard has indicated that farah will be there, and that Wallace is an outside chance.

I'd love for it to be Wallace. But I'm pretty sure the selectors will make the same shitty decisions that they always have. I.e. Farah.

And should have been for years.

Lewy won't be picked.

Shafted by the selectors' obsessions with an age policy (can't have too many 30+ players apparently, got to build for the future) along with the Morris boys. Never mind their performance.

Despite Lewis in particular winning countless origins for NSW.

As a Shark's fan - i'm happy he's not picked.

Someone from Fox was interviewing Lewis who should be the Blues' 9, which is ironic because he would probably be one of the best candidates.

 

[OldPanther]

Also Matt Moylan is playing behind an underperforming forward pack compared to Roosters/Sharks yet has better play making stats than Pearce/ Maloney this year. He should be in the halves.

Pretty sure NSW wins throughout Lewis' career can be counted pretty easily..

 

[myrrh ken]

haha - yeah.

He's definitely been the best player in the team a few times though, even off the bench.

Does he though??

Thanks mate. I'm sure you'll understand my skepticism. But at least there's some hope.

 

[myrrh ken]

On Wallace, my mates always joke that once you rupture a nut, you could never play as hard as you once did. Thoughts?
