Not as bad as being made out. Awesome bench.

Thats the key for me. Bench is as good as it gets.

Morgan and Arrow carrying injuries , Wallace back a week , McGuire hasn't played a game , Slater coming off an injury

Yeah i have no interest at all in these suggested injuries.

The team is good to go.

Suggested ??

They've all missed football games , how can it be suggested ??

Morgan couldn't even kick properly the other night because of his groin

Im saying im not interested in the conversation. The team will be ready to go on the night.

You sound like you are worried the NSW team is better.. . .
 
Just hope everyone picked is 100 % fit , we are going to have enough issues dealing with NSW's obvious speed advantage out wide

If the blues don't score after 20 minutes I think QLD should win
 
Youve got Inglis and Chambers in the centres. im hardly worried about holding the outside backs. More worried about the forward pack and how that plays out.

Bit like the WT's , we get tired because of the lack of footy many have played in the forwards , lose the ruck , and then our line will get compressed and then NSW could quite easily burn us out wide with their speed
 
I think players from both teams match up really well….
Gonna be a good series that's for sure.

The Queensland boys will get the win tho guided by their veterans.

**Maroons Statement: Billy Slater out for Origin 1**

Billy Slater has today confirmed he will not play in the opening match of the Holden State of Origin series at the Melbourne Cricket Ground due to a hamstring injury.

"I didn't pull up as well as I would have liked after our training run on Sunday, and because I'm not 100 per cent, it's in my best interests as well as the team's to withdraw from Wednesday's game," Slater said.

Maroons coach Kevin Walters will consult with selectors and senior players before deciding on the final make-up of the side closer to kick off.

He confirmed Anthony Milford and Kalyn Ponga will join the Maroons squad in Melbourne tonight.

"We knew we had some concerns with Billy, but he's a champion player and we needed to give him every chance to play," Walters said.

"We've had plans in place to cover Billy if he didn't come up right, and we've actioned that today with Anthony and Kalyn coming in."
