Wadeos returneth....

[Card Shark]

B2 cutting oranges.
He sits on the bench for 70 and then comes on and does what B1 could do anyway.

Agree. With all hands on deck, I can’t have him on the bench.

If we must have a Hooker / Back on the bench, I’d have Flanno Jnr over B2.

I think Bomber is trying out the Super Sub theory with B2.. With Wadeos back, do we really need to waste a bench spot for a 10-15 minute cameo at the arse end of the game? Jack Williams will probably get the chop, as they need a rotating Prop and Uele fits that to a tee.

Thank goodiness Bomber has common sense.

 

[coolumsharkie]

Looked Dangerous every touch, he's such a vital player to our top 4 and beyond. Great to have him back, we are going to go up a notch with him in the starting side next week. Capes still gets a bench spot imo. Real headCHE is when Woods returns.

Wade looked very at ease, much like Moylan coming back.

Coming into a winning team helps.

Just an out and out footy player, you can have your huge athletes give me a footy player any day.

What did he do? Gave early ball to Xerri - what we’ve been calling for for weeks!

And belted quntts. Drew defenders in from everywhere. Was pointing and directing and controlling and talking.

Will go close to replacing Crichton or Murray before SOO finishes.

25 minutes of enormity!

Only if Freddy actually wants to retain the title

That remains to be seen. I am getting a feeling that boys clubbing plays a part in Freddy selections.

It’s his credibility to lose though

e.g. Cleary. Crichton.

 

[Griffoshark66]

Crichton is a shell of the player he was last year. Wade runs rings around him.

 

[bad boy bubby]

At the ground the difference when he was on was immeasurable.
They had no clue how to deal with him.
Telling that their "comeback" was on his side, and directed that way.

 

[snout]

Turned the game from us being slightly on top to blowing them away.

Any coincidence we dropped when he went off?

 

[bad boy bubby]

I might add that his combination with Moyza is beautiful to watch

 

[bluefox68]

It’s almost like he’s had 9 months to think about how he can play with this team, and then he’s come on and executed...

I’m sure every game won’t be as good, but a great comeback game!

Freddy is a show pony! Smart but a show pony nonetheless!

It got him the series win last year but it’s for short term success.

If he doesn’t wake up before Origin 2, the series will be gone.

Kevvy Walters got the siege mentality / underdog status back into the Queensland players mind & it worked. It was joked about his initial press conference, not mentioning “NSW” but it turned out to be a masterstroke.

I doubt Freddy will counter this as he needs the attention...& it’s not attention to detail.

More interested in picking Easts and Penny players.

Cleary and Crichton should be nowhere near an origin squad.

 

[carinashark]

Great to see him running freely and playing with confidence.
