General State of Origin Discussion

[Harry Sack]

NSW backline will be one of thes best ever, on paper anyway.

Usually is lol. I'm expecting three fullbacks in the run on side and likely one on the bench.

 

[DanG]

so who's replacing papali?

 

[Sproj]

so who's replacing papali?

Who cares, they'll just get sent off anyway.

 

[Super Freak]

Can you imagine if the crackdown started last year?

Papalii would have been sent off in that last game.

 

[DanG]

i have a bad feeling wallace will be picked ehhhh

11. Fifita
12. Kafusi
13. Arrow

14. Brimson
15. Tino

Looks close but surely they can do better than Capewell at centre.

not many out there for QLD now days hey, only one i can think that's playing decent is opacic

 

[ningnangnong]

I still can't believe we won the series last year.

Look at those two teams on paper... and we fucking won. Unbelievable achievement. One of the greatest of all time.

 

[Unbreakable]

McGuire suspended for 5 weeks
Papalii suspended for 3 weeks
Collins out for the season
Carrigan out for the season

Our forward stocks are really going to be tested this year.

8. Welch
9. Grant
10. Fa'asuamaleaui
11. Fifita
12. Kaufusi
13. Arrow

14. Hunt/Mahoney
15. ? (2nd Rower) (Capewell, Su'A)
16. Fotuaika
17. ? (Prop/Lock) (Wallace, Molo, Lui, Horsburgh, Ofahengaue, Kerr)

Slim pickings for the 2nd bench prop role. Based on the numbers I'd say it's a flip of the coin between Wallace & Molo.

 

[LittleDavey]

Horsburgh in for Collins as the angry bench ranga..

And that's not racist bc I'm a ginger, my dad's a ginger, and my 5 boys are all gingers. So there.

That’s impressive, we could have an entire forward pack full of gingers playing for QLD! Just need to teach them how to harness their inner rage!

 

[Harry Sack]

No souls though. Everyone knows Gingers don't have souls.

 

[Galah]

That’s fine, I prefer my qld gingers ruthless.

You always need a ranga - Michael Crocker for instance. Was okay at club footy, but always took it to a new level at Origin thanks to the ranga blood that flows through him.

Dane Gagai, clearly a closet red.

Tino would be ahead of Molo if he doesn't play Lock, he can do big minutes too.

 

[Cult]

I started to care far less about Origin when incumbency meant shit players were handed their jerseys without earning them during Mal's reign. I care even less knowing the spectacle is going to be gone with these new rules and players missing. Rugby league is shit now, Origin hasn't been good quality footy for years now.
