Round 13 vs. Dargons @Bluebet

[Girds89]

Toleau has been very poor the last few games.

The whole team has the last three weeks

If luai is picked

You simply cant run with cole at 7 and laurie at 6 it is obsurd.

Neither is a genuine 6. Cole can be a 6 in time. He needs time. Like a whole season of fg with the best 7 and best player in the comp to find his feet..

And laurie is a 1. Who can play 6.

Trent is a 7.

Hes giod for a long period. Id much rather him at 7 as a genuine 7 then some shit make shift solution.

Its going to be extremley tough this origin period.

Ideally wed have edwards but if Mag is actually deadset on winning and starting fresh dyl should be the 2nd bloke picked after yeo. Hes been the most consistent back in the comp over the last 3 years. He just doesn't have a bad game. Even his off games by a normal fb standard are still high.

I love teddy... but the time to move on is now.

I dont think nsw can beat qld with flashy.

They have to much star power.

It sounds lame but if im mag id almost go against the grain and pick 17 blokes you just know will turn up and not miss a tackle. Will put their hand up over and over again

Here sits Jersey Flegg team list. Cole at 7, This is the year he won Jersey Flegg player of the year for the whole comp not just Penrith.

He was SG Ball aged playing 7 in a higher age group and was the player of the year so I think he can play 7.

Iongi is fulltime next year. He should be the FB if Edwards is picked. Although I can't see Teddy getting dropped after scoring a double yesterday. Hopefully they do

Laurie has played games at 6 before. Toletau should be the 14.

Injuries and suspension permitting. I'd expect this team to be named

Iongi
McLean
Tago
Alamoti
Turuva
Laurie
Cole
Fish
Kenny
Leota
Garner
Sorro
Smith

Toletau
Henry
Mav
Price - if Eiso failed he will miss the game.

I hope Ivan does some crazy stuff like the 2 hookers starting but I think that is what we get assuming Edwards and Luai do make Origin.

Doesn't matter what happens tedesco will be picked. There'd be politics involved.

 

[hindy111]

I have a feeling Teddy is getting picked.

 

[Iamback]

Yeah he is the captain and his form is decent enough. I do think Edwards should get in but I am expecting him to not get a start

 

[MrBlack]

They better not pick Edwards as 18th man.

i would rather he not get picked and available to play for us

 

[Bred not Bought]

I have a feeling Teddy is getting picked.

I hope he does. The less Panthers around that loser Blues team the better.

 

[Bred not Bought]

Maybe Lomax.

A good chance.
I read yesterday he will be picked in a squad of 20 players. Madge will decide later in the week. Out of him, Ramien and Suaalii for 2 spots

 

[globalpanther]

I hope they don’t pick Dyl as bench replacement r 18th man.

 

[globalpanther]

18th man Origin rule is the worst!

[Hamstring awareness]

18th man Origin rule is the worst!

Will never happen but the rule should be that the 18th man can only be selected from teams on the bye that round

Agree or player can play for club before I go back to camp:

 

[Bred not Bought]

Nothing on the charge sheet for Leota and Tago.

NRL Judiciary Report: Kiwi games counted in NAS ban

Storm prop Nelson Asofa-Solomona will only miss one game at the start of the 2025 season after it was ruled that three of New Zealand's Pac Champs game would count as part of his ban.

I'll take it but it's weird.

 

[This Year?]

You could roll out your Jersey Flegg side and still easily win.

[The Teach]

I've pretty much accepted that Dyl will be named in the squad tonight, so injuries permitting, this is the team I'd run out with next week (Isaah, Marto, Bizza and Romey being unavailable due to nsw selection)

1. Iongi
2. Turuva
3. Tago
4. Alamoti
5. Maclean
6. Cole
7. Toelau
8. Fish
9. Summerton
10. Moses
11. Scotty
12. Garner
13. Mitch Kenny (c)

14. Mav geyer
15. Smith
16. Henry
17. Laurie/Eiso (if he passes protocols)

18. Peachey

I think Mitch is durable enough to play lock and can easily switch back to hooker if needed.

Saints will probably be missing Hunt, with potentially Sua and Lomax in origin, so I still think our forwards will roll over them and there is enough points in that backline for us to win.
