More of a concern is game 2 when we will lose widdop and graham to international duties.

That's obviously for the round when our 2 poms are also out? Who do we play against in that round?

That is up to the ability of the coach to steer them through it and leverage it in the latter part of the season. The players aspire to SOO, you can't take that away from them, I want them all picked.
Not to mention it gives those sweating on a chance of showing us what they can do in 1st grade as it might be there only chance.

We play Parra on Thursday after Sunday Origin in Sydney. Thats a very short turn.

Wow, confusing! So the only game our origin players and the poms definitely miss is against Manly?

Our draw and the rep fixtures:

Us vs Bye
Wed June 6 NSW vs QLD
Mon June 11 Us vs Bulldogs
Sat June 16 Us from Manly
23rd June NZ vs England
Sun June 24 NSW vs QLD
Thurs June 28 Us vs Parra
Thurs July 5 Us vs Storm
Wed July 11 NSW vs QLD
Sun July 15 Us vs Tigers

So by my calculations, we will have origin players in doubt due to backing up against the bulldogs, Parra and the Tigers, and none of the origin players play against Melbourne.

The Kiwis and the English will be in doubt due to backing up against Parra.

If I was in charge of the NRL, I would be playing origin on the Monday night, instead of Wednesday night. That would give the players 2 extra days to recover after origin. I think this is so rational and logical, but why can't the NRL see this? My only explanation is that Channel nine may prefer Wednesday night. I am pretty sure that origin used to be played on Tuesday night when they first introduced it.

The 2nd Origin and Test match weekend there is no games so Saints only have the Storm game which they will be missing their rep players due to unavailability.

All other games Saints players will be backing up or Mary will rest. I am assuming based on how they are going on the ladder, Mary may rest them. By then I am hoping they are on 22+ points and a fair way ahead of 9th spot.

I think Saints have great cover in the backs/halves it is only forwards that are a concern.
