Nicho can't train apparently and Madge said thats the number 1 thing he needs. I can't see how those two things work. For us this Thursday he could play which is why I think Madge has done this.
Well, someone's flinging bull poo I suppose.

I actually rate Lomax but I’d definitely have picked Burton at centre. The bench is weird but I’d say McInnes is likely to move into the front row at some point to accommodate Yeo who will play 13? Young isn’t a middle and neither is Olakau’atu. QLD are gonna steamroll them imo.

McInnes in the front row is crazy.

I’m getting sick of Nicho giving interviews 24/7 talking about how last years origin affected him and how he is ready for it this year. Man just needs to start walking the walk and stay out of the media.

Agreed.

All he is doing is putting more doubt in his mind by constantly going back to it.

Talk in the present Nicho and actions speak louder than words.

My biggest worry with Nicho is he’s starting to get a lot more regular leg injuries and niggles. Hope he can get a better run with everything at the back end of the season.

Nicho sitting out training.

Someone tell me how this works out well for the sharks in any way shape or form?

Or how does it help NSW?

If you can’t train with the team from the get go I don’t see the point in being picked.

Also having training up in the Blue Mountains in the cold as opposed to at Coogee where they normally would have their camp wouldn’t help either.

I don’t get it - not a fan of A Johns or Freddy’s gang: but he would be burning over Nico inclusion and he’s right. If he ain’t 100% now, how will he cop the barrage next week

Thought it was said in the article and media was only there for 15? Do we take what these clowns say as verbatim? Wouldn’t the coach be keeping a lid on things regardless?

I don’t care about NSW. Or QLD or Origin.

@roboshark what do you think of the chosen referee?
Absolutely disgusting. Is it any wonder people are disillusioned with the game. This maggot is THE WORST ref in the games history by daylight. How many games each week are controversial that involve this clown. Wtf is going on. Seriously. Wtaf is going on. Am i the only one that can see it. And if anyone says yes they are lieing. This bloke is a cancer on the game. .......

If I was origin coach, I’d be bringing a stack of knee braces and slings and ankle boots.

Get the media at training for 15 minutes and parade the stars all bandaged up

Robo, I am with you Brother! The 2017 Quarter Final against the Cowboys was blatant cheating - Cowboys never were on side, he just looked across and laughed while our blokes got frustrated and lost the plot. I remember Dancing Gums received a $30k and Paul Crawley was scared for his life when I told him to write about the Refereeing performance that day.

My biggest concern is that he seems to referee for the favourite (the media’s favourite?) to win.
