Will Dugan be fit? And if so, will he dislodge Dugan. Will Jennings be back? And if so, will he replace Hopoate? Would he be bold enough to drop Gasnier? And then what about Kade Snowden? After such a strong team performance, who does Ricky select now?
Personally, I'd stick with what was selected in Game II - don't f*ck with the formula. While I think long-term Farah would be better than Ennis, now isn't the time to change. Mini was great, and Hoppa had a good debut...even though Jennings was excellent in Game I. And the forwards gamble paid off, big time. I was a little skeptical to begin with, but after tonight, Ricky showed he can actually coach. Though, I expect Queensland to counter the NSW gameplan with some fire and brimstone at Lang Park in three weeks - mobility won't be as successful next time around.
So a CC of Game II for me:
1. Anthony Minichiello
2. Jarryd Hayne
3. William Hopoate
4. Mark Gasnier
5. Akuila Uate
6. Jamie Soward
7. Mitchell Pearce
8. Tim Mannah
9. Michael Ennis
10. Paul Gallen (c)
11. Beau Scott
12. Ben Creagh
13. Greg Bird
14. Trent Merrin
15. Kurt Gidley
16. Anthony Watmough
17. Luke Lewis
