NSW Blues side named for Origin I

[maxxy86]

Out of that 19 don't go much on Bird Cordner Frizell - Merrin Scott Cartwright Unlucky and the backs don't go much on Moyland Jennings and Walker- Coote Roberts and j Bird.
Also not in favour of Farah would have had Ennis there easily.

Congratulations to Daley for picking a side that has absolutely zero chance of beating QLD.
Dylan Walker???? FMD he must have given Laurie a happy ending at the selection table. Not much better than a reserve grader I hope he packs the Stillnox in his kit bag because if he plays he will have a nightmare of mega proportions.
Boyd Cordner- don't see the attraction with this bloke, has no sting in defence and has only played 3 or so games this season and hasn't been playing well.
Josh Jackson- very average player who wouldn't scare QLD in the slightest in defence or attack.
Blake Ferguson- can't remember him ever having a great game playing wing. Has been playing like a busted clacker this season.
On form Ennis and Beau Scott should have been named in place of Robbie and Cordner.
Tyson Frizzell seems to be a favourite of Laurie's, he is very lucky to be there as his form has been pretty ho-hum so far this season. Cartwright should be there in front of him on form.
Well done for picking your mates in the squad Laurie, you will enjoy crying on each other's shoulders after yet another series loss.

If the blues are going to win a series of SOO,not only do they start by not picking the dog lover,but they must start thinking of getting rid of Daley and starting a fresh invigorating team of talented tryers with a fresh new coach….just my opinion if it counts,I'm starting to turn,even thinking of moving to the filthy state and looking at maroon as my favourite colour......no not really I would rather move to Vic and start following the cross country ballerinas...just can't seem to get the words out " go the morons" ,sorry I meant the maroons....

I would of had Merrin over Cordner and Bird can consider himself extremely lucky to be there.

Yeah i would of had Ennis over Farah for sure , the niggle he brings could be enough to upset Queensland's rhythm.

Feel bad for teddy he would have been there if he wasn't injured. Now if Moylan plays well he might never get a look in

That was my first thought too.

But if he keeps playing like he is, there's no way they'll leave out NSW's Billy Slater. They'll squeeze him into centre if they need to.

Hopefully moylan moves to 5/8th.

Not sure what you are talking about. Slater is a Queenslander, and he is out for the season, quite possibly career over.

Qld again by a lot.

Teddy = NSW's Billy Slater, I gather.

Dylan Walker?Manly?

This is yet another Bozo Fulton crap selection ….. Right up there with Jamie Buhrer- Manly.

Surprising these garbage 'Bolter' selections are always from Manly. The sooner we get rid of that gold plated tool Fulton from the selection panel the better. Just like him overseeing 10 years of crap NSW selections, and Kangaroo selections where we are no longer number one, and can barely beat a massively understrength Kiwi side.

Trouble is that he is likely to hand the game to Qld( like he has before) by giving away stupid penalties)probably next to the post with us leading, with minutes to go.
His brain snaps are too much of a risk, Happy to see him gone.
But how Walker is in , is beyond me.
He's lucky to in the NRL at all, having a shocker of a year.
Wade Graham must be the unluckiest player in the game, he can play more positions than Walker, and play them WELL.
Cordner will want to improve a hell of a lot.
Merrin, Scott , Wade graham,and Roberts, should pay a call to Loz and Bozo, and show them just how well they gang tackle. !!!!!

 

[Russell]

Good ol' Loz or is that Loze.

Bird, Cordner, Jennings, Moylan, Frizzel, Walker, Gallen ….. God give us strength.

 

[happy_tiger]

And here I was thinking it will be a tight series

Qld 3-0

Are you blokes sure that the NSW selectors were even there when they chose that side , maybe Loz turned around to quick again and knocked the proper selectors out with his nose again

I quite like the selections wonder if Loz will go with the Australian Centre/Wing combo of Dugan/Ferguson…

1\. Moylan
6\. Maloney
7\. Reynolds
9\. Farah

I thought Moylan would be playing 5/8 with Dugan fullback, Jennings and Morris in the centres with Mansour and Ferguson on the wing

 

[westTAHger]

Gee I thought they were picking the team on current form.
Michael Ennis deserves to be there.

 

[greatodensraven]

Some good changes there. Reckon they picked the wrong bird tho & prefer Cartwright over someone like say Walker.

Yep, should've just picked the Chronulla halves as well.
When is Wade Graham gonna get a shot too?

 

[Geo]

When do Queensland roll out the wheelchairs…?

 

[gallagher]

Getting 80 mins out of Farah is a big ask. They needed someone like josh reynolds on the bench

 

[stryker]

It's a good side. I'm happy with every selection.

 

[Telltails]

Farah has not let them down to date and until he does deserves to hold his position.

Could be…. but why pick Reynolds and play a 5/8 in Maloney at 7 and a fullback at 5/8...

Only other possibility is Moylan on the bench using him like QLD use Morgan...
