SOO I 2020 *Spoliers

NSW forward pack looks way better. Haas starting makes more sense, Paulo can provide impact off the bench, Cordner out for Crichton, Yeo, Finucane and Brown are all great off the bench too.

Cody Walker gets his chance at redemption starting at 6

Gutho still at centre gross

I think TikTok Cleary can count himself very lucky to be still in the squad. And yes Gutherson is not a centre.

NSW have a habit of not dropping crappy halfbacks. Pearce got away with it for years, Cleary has played like 5-6 games and has no try assists or tries

Walker and Guffbo. I'm not sure i can watch

TikTok Cleary is the most overrated player in the NRL since Braith Anasta.

Walker and Cleary yikes. It’s like a train wreck waiting to happen

Keary/Wighton halves

Lomax Crichton centres

Would have also had Cotric on the wing replacing Topoo

Walker on the bench (think he has great utility value)

Happy to see Keary dropped, Rorters just put him on big long term coin, Teddy still in negotiations, few signs of trouble under the giant sombrero 😁

Crichton would be carved up by the Qld backs. His defence is below ordinary. Lomax is a great centre and I am surprised he didn't play.

We’re talking about the worst 1-5 in Queensland’s history, I reckon he’d be fine. Atleast he’s a specialist centre

Teddy is still a handful and good in defence but he’s now fatty and slower.


I’d still have him back..if he groveled a little

The NSW bench looks much better, more impact and I can only see them improve from this point.

Not very professional from Nofa. Needs to be smarter than that, tweeting stuff like that will not get you in freddys good books.

Not saying he’s wrong for doing it tho ? just probably not in his best interests

The tweet was at 9.08. Wasn't that near half time in NSW?

People reading too much into an emoji lol. Was probably baffled at how poor NSW played in general, just like anyone else

Thats funny, i only just finished saying to someone 5 minutes ago that he is the most over rated player in the league since Braith Anasta.

In reality i think he is more like Brett Kimmorley, a good game manager but not the guy who holds his spot in a losing Origin team.

Great minds...

All for a QLD clean sweep but if it was me i would have Wighton at 5/8. Wasted in the centre. It takes him out of the play and the spur of the moment heads up play he is best at.

That said QLD should have Arrow in the starting side.

Both sides have issues.

Just what we needed - Sutton again.

Couldn't referee two ants walking up a wall.

Shows how dire the Referee ranks are. Where are you Peter V'Landys?????

Once his brother isn’t head of refs he won’t be getting all the big games lol

I think fitler got the pack right for game 2 but I’d be going with these backline changes also 👆

The day Qld picked Adrian Brunker on the wing was our lowest ebb

 

[Speed2burn]

Now Clearys mediocrity has been rewarded with the vice captaincy..he’s untouchable

Cook should feel robbed

 

[tig_prmz]

Frizzell, Wighton, Jake T.. all better candidates.

Compare that to QLD giving Friend a shot instead of Harry G. One good season...

Clubs and States these days make a mockery of the entire system. Not saying Cleary doesn't deserve it, but there are many who deserve it more. How is a 22yo kid with 2 seasons under his belt going to tell seasoned veterans what to do.
