Positional changes over origin

[Blues Riff]

Wasn't it second tier cap issues that kept him out of first grade?
Anyway Gus may be a bullshit artist, but he's "our" bullshit artist ;-)

Gus has been brilliant for us but he's so full of shit. I'm embarrassed for people on here who qutoe him for "proof" of things on Twitter. It's his job to lie

Ivan and Gus played Wes Naiqama over Moylan

And Whare at fullback. Funny how all of that is forgotten.

Whare is a gun so i can forgive this

All debate about agendas and revised history aside I think it's definitely true that these two guys have made it to Origin purely on the back of incredible attitude. Mansour is the hardest working winger in the game and while he has talent, it is nowhere near some of the other young guys who are just naturals. Moylan again has talent but is no Milford. He doesn't have that instinctive freakish ability but you can tell he studies the game, his game and works tirelessly. I don't think anyone would have pegged Moylan as potentially NSWs most important creative player for the next little while. Hopefully these guys prove to be the product of a system that puts attitude first and makes these outrageous juniors we have into quality first graders.

Ivan and Gus played Wes Naiqama over Moylan

They were told by the Salary Cap honchos that they had to.

The issue was, Wes was in the top 25 that year and Moylan wasn't.

In that regard, Moylan did burst on to the scene. It went a long way towards costing us a spot in the finals, that loss.

 

[Doomednow]

Moylan again. Some people will not be happy about that. Mansour again. Outside chance Cartwright fills in for suspended Graham?

There were never going to be wholesale changes after a two point loss.

Dylan Edwards would have to come in if Moylan and Mansour get picked for Game 3.

1. Edwards
2. Gennings
3. Blake
4. Peachey
5. Dwz
6. Cartwright/Soward
7. Cleary

Pack remains the same. Cartwright might make the Origin 3 side or might go back to second row if Soward is recalled. But damn we could be potentially missing a gun side:

1. Moylan (origin)
2. Mansour (origin)
3. Hiku (injury)
4. Whare (injury)
6. Soward (form)
9. Segeyaro (form / off field)
12. Cartwright (potential origin debut)

Half our full strength starting side could be gone. I expect Soward will be back though and Cartwright wont be picked. But if things go against us that's most of our attacking players missing.

 

[maple_69]

Well we wouldn't be much of a chance against the Sharks with both sides full strength so playing them with out Maloney, Graham, Gallen and Fifita might change that. Soward would definitely come back in if Moylan is out. Griffin won't leave Cleary with a backrower when he doesn't have the support of Moylan and Wallace chipping in on the playmaking.

 

[umina panther]

We were better than the Sharks a month ago, only goalkicking lost it for us. Sure they'd be favorites but I wouldn't write us off

 

[forby]

There are 5 Penrith juniors in the SoO team.
Moylan, jennings, Graham, Fifita, Cartwright.
A great credit to the club.

 

[mxlegend99]

Only 3 will get to play. Cartwright will drop out as he's only a development player. Graham will be suspended and replaced with Hoffman or Scott having everyone question why there were development players to begin with.

 

[TheFrog]

Maybe Cartwright was covering Graham and Bird was the development player. They haven't up till now named two development players.

 

[maple_69]

With Bird coming into the Origin squad our chances of popping Cronulla are looking better. No Gallen, Fifita, Maloney, Bird and even Graham possibly. We are likely to have Mansour our and Moylan only if the Blues win game 2.
