Because he is the only 7 left who can kick a ball half decent.

We will get thumped in this one. Our bench with one prop is horrendous. No Cobbo is very strange. Assuming he’s not injured so interesting to see what’s gone on with that.

Surely injured unless billy saw the 4 errors from Cobbo on the weekend and thought it may be an origin killer?

Meh I don't mind him being dropped. We need him at fullback against the Warriors.

Except he's not playing Selwyn on the wing or at fullback.
He came on at centre in Game 1 and you'd imagine it wouldve been through the middle if there were no injuries.

I would love nothing more than to see him at FB against the warriors. Hopefully that happens if Arthars is back with Karapani playing centre.
Although I don't think Walters has lost faith in Sailor just yet.

All of us would love to see Selwyn @ fullback against Warriors.
Problem with Kev is, at times he will have too much of blind faith in players and I’m afraid that the players knew that too.

Gagai 18th man for QLD with Kaufisi and Capewell on the bench. We’ve gone with a much weaker team this time round. I’d have had Fermor in over Capewell tbh

Is he injured or not? Cant find anything? Strange he just being left out.

Who cares, we get three broncos players back for the warriors and the Warriors lose Capewell! Probably the best possible scenario for us. Looking forward for this exhibition to be over so we can try and recover our season!

They won pretty comfortably in game 3 last year with Moses and Walker ?
So I don`t understand the 2 auditions quote ?

Capewell has barely played for the wahs and when he has he’s been rubbish. I don’t get the selection at all, surely you go Fifita or another like for like replacement for Cobbo (who is surely injured otherwise qld have lost the absolute plot)

Agreed. It’s a strange selection

Fifita is injured so he was out.

Surely Val gets dropped for Cobbo if Billy is adamant that he wants a forward hybrid on the bench. Cobbo was the second best in player on the field in game 1

Cobbo has been playing with injections so Billy says he's been rested.

Embarrassing that we made him back up against the Sharks if he’s been in that much pain. You could see he wasn’t right.
