#2 Posted: 5/13/2012 7:10:49 AM IMO not a bad team but how does that cat Creagh keep getting picked? And he is supposed to be a front row option as well??? 
Buhrer a bit of a bolter. Think Tariq Sims would have been better off the bench for some explosiveness along with T-Rex

#3 Posted: 5/13/2012 7:43:35 AM If the referreing is fair, 3-0 QLD....
The only way NSW get a win is if the refs cheat for them, which judging by what i have seen , is a very big chance. |

Cant believe there is no Dugan in the team, he is such an explosive player and a real X factor |

#6 Posted: 5/13/2012 8:02:05 PM An embarrasing team.
somehow Bird, Buhrer, Creagh, Williams and Merrin get a spot ahead of Watmough
3 players who aren't even good enough to make the starting 13 for their clubs are good enough to play origin
Where are the prop forwards?
How many out of form players are picked?
stuart and fulton should be sacked immediately

It has some good but there is way more bad, like the halves and the back row. But Jennings, Buhrer,Creagh,Williams and Merrin have no business being chosen.
FML Jenning and Creagh????
How is Choc and simms not in this team |

#11 Posted: 5/13/2012 9:37:59 PM Rostos for that same case why does matt cooper not play their, they are both easily the best centres that NSW can pick. Its a joke.
For the above comment on the halves i happen to think mitch and todd will go good together, they already know eachothers games and Todd is far and away the form NSW halve at the moment.

#19 Posted: 5/13/2012 11:35:29 PM I know NSW selectors have to experiment a little bit after years of failure, but there WILL be a lot of changes after Game 1 for Game 2 if this team falters, which they will!

#20 Posted: 5/13/2012 11:38:30 PM Having said that game is gonna be won in the forwards and NSW do have the pack to give their backs room to work with but quite disappointed Dugan didn't make the team... |

#21 Posted: 5/14/2012 12:42:19 AM Such an over rated statement 'this game will be won in the forwards'...
Good thing the Queensland backs are just so good, it becomes a joke...
The NSW team is filled with tired, rubbish boozehead, bonehead players and this series should be like the rest of them. |

Boozehead remark towards Toddy is just perthatic really, he deserves his spot in the team and has been playing great footy all year. |

#24 Posted: 5/14/2012 12:56:47 AM I think Stuart is gambling here......
Jennings hasnt shown anything, for the most part, he has looked dis-interested and non comitted when playing for the Panthers, mostly on defense.
Hayne has also looked dis-interested.....I still dont think he is fully fit..
Creagh seems to have lost his ability to bend the line.
Farahs defense is awful.
Stuart is relying on the fact, even though they have done nothing, they will come good.
Speaking of gambling.....Did Andrew Johns have under in the Knights Cowboys game?
Did you here on the footy show when they were talking about the last try in that game when the ball was kicked about 4 times with under 10 secs left, Johns said, "that try should not be allowed", to which Sterlo said , "he lost his bet because of that try"....
He couldnt have had Cows 13+, because the margin was already 13+....That final try pushed the score over, so i could only imagine Johns had the under.......
He coaches half the teams in a consultnacy basis...for sure he bets on those teams as well...... |
