NSW Origin II Team

[JD Tiger]

For mine, Latrell is the best player in the comp. Followed by Teddy, Cook and Ponga. He didnt have the best game in Origin 1, but he's still the best centre in the game without a doubt.

Fittler is just a pawn in all this, as it has to be political. Latrell has done something the Roosters hierarchy doesn't like, and this is his punishment. They are just flexing their muscles over him.

I suppose that it is just a coincidence that 2 of the 3 players that did not sing the anthem have been dropped??

Who knows. Not singing the anthem seemed to be a focus for a couple of them. Maybe not the best preparation.

Fittler said "he needs to find his smile again".

Gould, a long term Politis man, said "he needs to sort out his personal issues".

He fired his manager who wanted a quick deal with the Rorters...the kid wants to wait until 2020 to test the market.

This is their way / media mates of saying "see what happens".

I'd be willing to bet Mitchell takes the break to "freshen up" and signs long term with Rorters...........miraculously recalled for game 3.

Nows our time to strike. Mitchell for Tigers #1 in 2020!

Wade is an excellent player, but he has played less than 100 mins in 10 months after a knee reconstruction...

And now is expected to be up to Origin's pace?

Matto ridiculously unlucky.

Offensively unlucky actually.

 

[TIGER]

So now.

We've got 1 experienced rep prop.

2 centres that don't play centre at club level, one of which is a newbie at rep level.

2 out of form halves which are only there by default.

A winger who is only there through injury and could argue he's also not in form (not like earlier in the season)

A guy who's played one full game after a long layoff with Injury.

Our most dangerous attacking weapon dropped admittedly he's not in the best form but he's a player that Qld are scared of.

And we're still favourites!!!!!

I'm still stunned that Qld weren't favourites for game 1 at home.
The bookies must hate money.

Freddy might have made one of the biggest mistakes in a long time.

NSW, win so the doubters are silenced
Please

Geez, Freddy is asking for a 3-0 drubbing...

@willow Nah mate, looks like he wants to lose next series as well

 

[Sabre]

So, Morris has a good 1st game, gets dropped, Wighton, for some bizarre reason gets picked....they could have gone with Croker at least

Severe lack of props again......Matterson has to kill someone to get on this team as well

Especially when Wighton was the player most to blame for our loss in Game 1.

 

[Fraction]

@Sabre This is the thing i hate.....Wighton lost us the game sure but, if the pass had of connected, we would have scored

Didn't need to be thrown. Was always going to be intercepted, it was like watching it in slow motion when it happened.

@Sabre yeh ik, but it was a try either way

@Sabre yeh ik, but it was a try either way

Some would say there was only a fraction in it .........

@tiger_one :hankey: :joy:

I am unsure about the amount of changes. Saifit is a strange one coz without being bias i think that Twal would do a better all round job.

 

[supercoach]

Mitchell would be the first guy I would pick, maybe he has signed with Souths.
Can’t see how Mado was not in the 17, got to be twice as good as Wade Grahame who has played one game in yoinks.
I hope the blues get smashed and Freddie can go back to being the sideline fool

 

[Nelson]

I don't know how he got all the way down to Saifiti in the pecking order. If he was picking on form then Aussie Jim has been one of the better performing NSW options this season, plus he has experience in Origin. Saifiti was not even vaguely on the radar for me...

 

[diedpretty]

I'm not as passionate as most but i am a NSW supporter - however i'm hoping this team gets absolutely flogged - its quite obvious that Fittler hasn't got a clue and has hit the panic button. I'm flabbergasted - Wade Graham????? Honestly this side is a joke.
