Our luck we’ll start the year on fire and then Madge will pick Moses, Gutho, RCG, Paulo, Carty and Penisini in origin, and Hoppy will be in the Qld team, and we’ll be f**ked post-origin
Moses, RCG & Hopgood would be only 3 out of that lot to play origin.

I think Madge will go with Moses/Cleary halves pairing.

Penisini is still 18 months to 2 years away from Origin level & Paulo Origin days are over.

Players having origin experience hasn’t helped us ? Hmmmok.

So you would prefer to be like the Warriors and just have players who are not eligible?
I don't mind players getting picked for Origin but losing too many of them just affects your season and drains the petrol tank.

Tossing away 2-4 competition points in such a tight competition is madness.

Look at that crucial home game last year against the Wahs getting a few of the lads picked for a dead-rubber.

Imagine having Gutho, Moses & RCG in the side that night.

Do you reckon we get pumped by 40 at home.

No chance i reckon throw those 3 in and we win at Commbank.

Coaches say that in the long term, it benefits the club. Players grow in confidence and bring that a next level professionalism to the dressing room.

I reckon a smokey would be carty. If he keeps his form up and panfers and liam struggles a bit, and even yeo, he could get a shot

Yeah possibly i suppose we dont know what Madge is going to do.

Back-row is a position that there is always plenty of options.

I think if your players are getting picked as series picks, the benefits of a few weeks at that level outweighs them missing a couple of games. Especially if you know they are going to be picked and you can plan for that leading up to it.
It’s the one-off sacrificials in dead rubbers because selectors don’t want to admit they’ve got no f**ken clue. Especially dead rubbers because, I don’t care what players say about “no dead rubbers”, both teams are absolutely going to be playing a lot looser than if results are on line.

It was so nice of the NRL to give the Warriors a bye during origin last year. :eek:

I think you are avoiding the question, because you can't afford the NZ side.
Avoiding the question? I answered yes.

I can't afford the NSW or QLD side either. What benefit did we get last year when Moses, Paulo, RCG and Gutho played for NSW?

I can See Reg/Paulo/Moses getting picked for NSW this year .

Which I don't think will help us at all they are all experienced have next level professionalism and what not that comes from playing for NSW.

Based on last season and game one hes our best edge forward no doubt. I did hear BA say hes giving Carty time in the middle. Shocked the f*ck outta me.

You’d have to assume Tubbo & Haas are shoe-ins whether warranted or not. Probably leaves 2 spots, or potentially just 1 spot depending on how they go with Yeo/Murray, that’ll be given to either Junior, RCG or Saifitis.
