11\. Papalii
12\. Gillett
13\. McGuire

14\. Morgan
15\. Cooper

17\. Glasby

Still a prop short on the bench, backline is far better than NSW imo

I am getting a little nervous

Im of the understanding Boyd will play left centre with Chambers switching to the right

I thought Boyd would play on the wing like usual, and Gaga is a much better centre

Anyway, Its queensland - they don't matter

Good to see QLD making a heap of changes, I was getting sick of the drivel up here about loyalty etc…. Personally I think that NSW should be able to beat this side, especially in Sydney.

 

[FreddyK]

Will they stop Fifita this time? Not sure, but I do know that Myles did not fire in Origin 1 and Gillett was suspect on the edge. Let's see.

Swap Cooper and Papalii and I'd be happy I think. Cooper wont really get beaten in defence, and is a solid option outside Thurston. Allows Papalii to play up the middle off the bench which gives Queensland half a chance of matching the NSW bench. I'd be surprised if it happened, but I think they'd be more likely with that lineup.

i cannot believe they dropped oates. guerra played good too.. and pappali needs to be on the edge.

NSW by 8

 

[Fade_To_Black]

Good to see Papalii named again…..he is hopeless. Too slow and fat to have much impact after the 3rd minute mark. Al Glasby is a bolt out of the blue.

 

[Chainlink]

Basically picked the team that should have been picked in game one. Will be more competitive.

 

[Geo]

Greatest Queensland side ever picked…NSW have no chance...

 

[Nelson]

I'd have picked Korbin Sims ahead of Glasby and certainly in preference to the second of the 2nd rowers on the bench (i.e. Cooper). Sims has been playing with plenty of aggression for the Bronocs and has been pretty effective. They got the back line right though and Napa/Wallace is a better starting prop rotation for them. This will be a much bigger test for NSW.

 

[stryker]

Finally common sense has prevailed. This is pretty much what the game 1 squad should have been. That side was sabotage…very NSW like in several mistakes at the selection table.
We'll need the decider i think.

Hahahahaha so much for the picking and sticking for the morons….stryker you seriously think they can win after making 6 changes!!?Another 13+ win to the blues for mine

 

[Tigerdon]

Still seems light on for props , for mine.

Love your arrogance after 1 good game. Get plenty of kleenex.

Never so confident before the first and feeling the same right now….

Selectors.
Pride, stubborness, pig headed attitude…you name it.
That game 1 side was the worst ive seen in many many years.

Agree with that but only based on the rumours going around about Kevvie being overruled.

As a Blues supporter I am still confident we can beat this team but now with an element of doubt that wasn't there in game 1\. The fact that JT and Billy are back is enough to scare me….a little. Not religious but I think I'm going to pray for a win 😛ray:

 

[Geo]

If Queensland happen to lose this game (which they wont as it's the greatest team of internationals ever assembled)…Will there be another 7 changes for game 3..is that how they roll now..?

Will Kevvy see another Origin series...?

So many questions...?
