Teams killing team mates Origin chances

[veggiepatch1959]

Can I have your 2008 one?

No. I don't have one.

Or two.

I reckon Teddy will miss out on game 1, not that teammates are doing anything wrong, he just doesn't seem to be able to get into the games this year..

Teddy was never really all that flash, he's an exciting player but he's not exceptionally fast or gifted.
He was always keeping the seat warm for T.Turbo.

Taking the piss?

Yeah I was thinking possibly Elvaro even that is a stretch.

 

[SDM]

They are flat out trying to play 1st grade, what do you think?

 

[Howard_Moon]

The only Parra player who should be considered is Nathan Brown. Elvaro is rubbish

 

[Shorty]

I think Elvaro is ok in patches, it seems to be a fitness issue.

Sutton never played Origin. He couldn’t have played ‘more’.

Sutton never played Origin. He couldn’t have played ‘less’.

 

[Iafeta]

Albino spent all his Make a Player points in Plod.

You’ve given the bait well though. Well played.

Remember when he was in a train off with Reynolds for a spot and the NSWRL accidentally tweeted Sutton was picked

 

[big hit!]

theoretically Origin should be about the in-form players getting picked but it never happens that way

form is temporary. class is permanent, unless you play-on too long. form players without class get exposed at the higher level.

and what's driving form? before last week, every merge player who wasn't pom, kiwi, png, samoan or qlder was in the conversation for nsw selection. everyone looks f**king good in a winning team. how many times have NSW coaches and selectors stacked the team with merge or roosters players over the years when they were leading comps at origin time, and came away with shit?!

we know how good the trbojevic boys are...manly getting whipped doesn't change that. there;s internal shit contributing to the their shit at the moment. likewise, cook was a spark for a losing souths team last season, and has continued to be that trigger this season. he has class, not mere form.

form is bullshit and it is why NSW has lost so many series. form is what got Pearce selected again last series FFS! then he managed to derp it up again at the next level.

form players without class get exposed at the higher level.

Yes, I tend to agree. It's why I shake my head at suggestions in the past that Blake Austin and more recently JAC go straight into the NSW team on the back of 1 good season of 15-18 games. Blake is now lucky to make his team's first grade side..

so pick "class" players without form? just as ridiculous

Manly ain't doing the Trbojevic boys any favours either.

They didn't do themselves any favours. They were horrible. I doubt Jake will ever have a worse game

Albino...it's funny cause he actually looks albino lol.

Tommy Turbo has been quiet his past couple.. normally he's in everything..

 

[Tronald Crump]

Any player that outside ball hog Tyrone Peachey.

 

[Lambretta]

If Parra weren’t so shit Mannah and Alvaro would be starting props for NSW

I agree 100%
When I need something propped open, like a broken garage door, I always ask these two to stand there and be useless. They're exactly what the job needs

I agree. Though his injury issues this year may be contributing. But Jake's game was so bad and came right out of left field. It was strange and concerning.
