There must be something (other than piss and shit) in the water out that way.

Every one of the toothless, bastard, brain dead bottom feeding HIV positive drug addict no idea nuffie merkin who supports the soon to be extinct shithole club thinks that the following are future rep players.

Moylan
DWZ
GJennings
RJennings
WaqaBlake
RCG
Cartwright

When all they are and ever will be is the blueprint to achieving the wooden spoon.

Moylan - already played for city twice, NRL all stars and PM XIII. Was also selected for the Kangaroos squad.
DWZ - selected twice for the best team on the planet only to be ruled out by injury
Waqa Blake and RCG already played for city having played less then 10 NRL games

Only a crackhead would suggest that Bryce Cartwright won't ever play rep footy. Who the f**k do you support anyway?

Darren Lockyer was a playmaking fullback. And he went alright I reckon.

Holmes combines physical and playmaking qualities very well. And I suspect he'll be the QLD fullback for about 7-8 years soon enough.

You're not seriously comparing Holmes to Lockyer are you?

And I think Michael Morgan will have a bit to say about that number 1 jersey. Maybe Holmes can grab a spot on the wing.

Lol. Who did and didn't play in the junior rep football games is the worst argument I have heard. Daniel Mortimer and Kris Keatings to be the next immortals over Smith and Thurston because they played Australian schoolboys

Well alright fair enough. DWZ has twice been selected for the Kiwis, the best team on the planet only to be robbed by injuries. Maybe when Holmes can grab a spot for AUS or atleast QLD then we can make a case for him being better.

Michael Morgan is a half through and through. Even last year he was a half playing fullback, it just took until the finals for him to be exposed. It's tempting to put halves to fullback because of their playmaking ability but some just don't have the natural fullback skills. Corey Norman is another that comes to mind.

Playing someone out of their club position at Origin time is way too risky.

The way I see it it's a 4 way duel for the 1,6 and 7 with Hunt, Milford, Morgan and Mbye. One will miss out but the others have to be fitted in. Morgan has great playmaking ability and is very quick and agile. He's much bigger and stronger then Holmes as well.

What do you mean by exposed in the finals last year? He was great the whole year....

From memory he fumbled and was caught out by some kicks against the Roosters.

I might be being harsh though as the entire team was shite in that first half.

Everyone makes mistakes, especially if their team is playing bad. But do you really think Morgan would miss out considering the impact he's had in origin so far? I see a Queensland backline of the future looking something like

1. Morgan
2. Lee
3. Gagai
4. Chambers
5. Holmes
6. Milford
7. Hunt

14. Mbye

Maybe Kayln Ponga will be pushing for selection sometime in the future too.

Holmes will be a better fullback than Morgan. I've no doubt about that.

Morgan should stay put at 5/8 imo.

Back to the real discussion, I think that Milford AND RTS will be the two best players in the next few years.

Very exciting to see what these two can do.

Only doubt I have over RTS is the Warriors....man they know how to f*ck players around with their shitty culture.

If Morgan stays at 5/8 where will Milford go? I'd personally have him in the halves since he has the combination with Ben Hunt.

I don't really care about the Holmes comparison, no one can tell how that will go and it doesn't really matter both will be outstanding players.

Dallin debuted at 18 and capped off his rookie season with selection to the Kiwis and backed it up again this year getting picked for the midseason test, he was unlucky to miss both but he will play a lot of rep footy. In his first couple games at FB this year he was getting up close to 200m in a struggling panthers side, the kid has shown massive potential in FG so far.
