My team:

1. Jarryd Hayne 2. Brett Morris/Daniel Tupou (Only real options unfortunately) 3. Michael Jennings 4. Josh Dugan (Dylan Walker if injured) 5. Blake Ferguson 6. James Maloney 7. Mitchell Pearce 8. Aaron Woods 9. Cameron McInness 10. Andrew Fifita 11. Boyd Cordner 12. Josh Jackson 13. Jack De Belin 14. Paul Vaughan 15. David Klemmer 16. Tyson Frizell 17. Jake Trbojevic/Wade Graham

Team I think Daley will pick:

1. James Tedesco 2. Jarryd Hayne 3. Michael Jennings 4. Josh Dugan 5. Blake Ferguson 6. James Maloney 7. Mitchell Pearce 8. Aaron Woods 9. Robbie Farah 10. Andrew Fifita 11. Boyd Cordner 12. Josh Jackson 13. Trent Merrin 14. David Klemmer 15. Tyson Frizell 16. Jake Trbojevic 17. Jack Bird.

Of course Daley will be shocked when we lose and the NSWRL still won't get rid of him because he fluked a win in 2014.
Second team listed is much more of a threat, anyone who uses the word form knows nothing about winning origin

Ill give him credit last year he was excellent but before that he was Plodner
That's because he's an 80 backrower who runs as hard in the 79th minute as he does in the 2nd minute.

But the genius Blues selectors had him on the bench; coming on and playing 30 minutes.

Low and behold he starts game 1 last and was NSW best by far.

If he plays 80 min in all 3 games - which barring injury he will - then you can almost give him the Brad Fittler Medal now.

You'd have him top 50?

Idk.

It's either wing or fullback for Hayne. So he'll be named at centre.

Jennings outstanding defence probably remains the best option at left centre.

Woods, unfit & out of form plays last night. Vaughan who has been in great form all year, carries zero baggage will get overlooked(great for Saints)but represents all that is wrong with NSW selections.

Jake T and Vaughan should have already been locked in. You can not leave those 2 out.

Second team listed is much more of a threat, anyone who uses the word form knows nothing about winning origin

.... and NSW definitely know nothing about winning.

What the team should be:

1. Jarryd Hayne
2. James Tedesco
3. Jack Bird
4. Dylan Walker (Jennings or Dugan if he's not fit)
5. James Roberts
6. Matt Moylan
7. James Maloney
8. Paul Vaughan
9. Cameron McInnes
10. Andrew Fifita
11. Boyd Cordner
12. Wade Graham
13. Tyson Frizell

14. Blake Austin
15. David Klemmer
16. Jack de Belin
17. Jake Trbojevic

Injuries to Mansour and Tommy T are a real bummer, and I believe Walker got hurt tonight. He may have been a shit bench utility, but on form her deserves a shot at centre. Jimmy the Jet has been on fire, and he has so much speed and strength, he offers a genuine threat. Put him on the wing and give him a roving commission. I know Dugan and Fergo will get picked, but it's nice to dream.

A lot of people imagine Jack Bird as the bench impact player, but for mine he deserves to start, opening up the spot for the equally threatening Blake Austin.

Klemmer or Woods for the last bench spot, as I can't leave either JDB or Jake Turbo out on form. Klemmer and Woods have both been down on form, but they've both performed well at this level in the past, so either or (though I know both will actually get picked). I prefer 4 props, but Friz, JDB, and Jake Turbo can all play through the middle and handle the 4th prop duties.

Moylan is better than Pearce and is the incumbent and doesn't have a long history of failure. Roosters fans can cry about it.

I don't agree with all of it but there's some good there.

Would you have chosen Vaughan last year while playing reserves? (Clue to your answer- he is the same player) not as if he is just early twenties and learning his craft. You could have 10 different players each year if form in the nrl is your main reason to choose different players.

Cry about it? Lool

Origin is nothing compared to club footy.

We'd be ecstatic if Pearce didn't get picked because as it stands we're certain to lose two games without our Origin stars against two basically non affected teams.

I pray they pick Moylan so we have half a chance in those games.
