Nathan Merritt looked like a little Manu Vatuvei out there. He was just terrible.

Played 2 games for NSW last night his first and last. His defence is nowhere near good enough for that level, something many of us have said for years and years. I still remember TNT scoring a hatrick against him by running straight over him. Koro also run straight over him this year. Once again the NSW selectors have no idea.
Merritt was chosen with the heart not the head - a massive mistake for Origin!
One the biggest differences between the sides last night was how much better Qld defended to the sides of the ruck - they have a very effective slide-and-up style whereas we only have the regulation up and in…

They play good night weather defense. Get off the line quick and slide in defense towards the sideline. They do it as a unit. We had Merritt jumping out of the line of defense and it gifted them opportunities which they took.
I think Merritt deserved an opportunity with his good club form for a while. Whether he deserves an opportunity to play better after last nights performance, I don't know.

At least now every Souths fan and sook can stop trying to make his non selection about race.
He is not up to that level. It is just the facts of it

Where did he say that? Is that a direct quote?

Who would you have chosen instead of Merritt? The other wingers in the frame, Uate and (?), have highly noticeable flaws as well and are just as useless.

Personally Tafua was a much better alternative.
The best idea would have been playing a Morris on each wing and bringing in Idris

Direct quote from a few years back. Mundine was stirring the pot

haha, FMD, his D is just as turnstile like under pressure…in fact, a lot of NRL wingers would have struggled with that last night.
