So much for changes, pfttttt piss weak side

 

[smeghead]

ROFL. The same backline with Bird instead of Zoolander. How many pints did they score last game. :lol:

 

[Hurriflatch]

For the 1st ctime in my life I hope NSW get killed

Please win 70-0 QLD

 

[aqua_duck]

jamie lyon, ffs

 

[Hurriflatch]

Lyon still being there, King still on the wing

total disgrace of a side the sooner Fulton and McCarthy die the better

 

[macavity]

QLD 3-0

seriously, they could pick the wiggles as their forward pack and still beat us.

NSW selectors, its time to go.

 

[skeepe]

Jamie Lyon :lol:

He hasn't even done anything this season to show that he deserves a first grade spot, let alone a rep spot.

 

[ByRd]

i agree, i want QLD to absolutely hammer this team as only then would they grow balls and make some changes, we cant score points so what do they do, leave the same backline and put a fill in five eight in Bird, and i dont get how Kidley gets in over Farah, pathetic side.

 

[macavity]

keep Lyon who has been our worst in both games

keep King on the wing where he has been severely embarrassed...

Put yet another lock at 5/8

and put an injured Gidley on the bench

well done....

 

[Timmah]

Lyon still there? Utterly laughable.

 

[Dazzat]

The mind boggles as to what Lyon would need to do to GET OUT of the team.

 

[Hurriflatch]

Ryan cis playing #12

 

[Timmah]

If Tonga does get QLD selection as mention, prepare for spastic centres :crazy:

 

[JJ]

King on the wing seems to be a liability, but the selectors can't spot it :crazy: He should be at centre, or not there at all

 

[smeghead]

Now I am torn a little.

Would like to see Buderus go out a winner (as it should be his last game of Origin) but seriously that side deserves to be lapped, although I guess Gallen gets a run which people have been calling for

 

[S.S.T.I.D]

That NSW team is a farce and is why I do not support them.

I sincerely hope Qld win by 80.

 

[t-ba]

It's almost enough to make me want to cheer for Queensland. What a f*cking disgrace.

I think if Kite is used properly (i.e: For more than 30 minutes) he's a worthwhile proposition, but Lyon has done nothing to maintain his spot and King should be nowhere near the wing (his club form suggests that he should replace Lyon).

What does Watmough have to do?

 

[macavity]

I dont get the "I wont support them" garbage - not their fault the selectors picked them.

Saddam, GW Bush and Osama could run out in sky blue and I would still support them...

having said that, it is still a crap team.
