Official NSW Blues Game 1 Team

Re: NSW Blues Game 1 team leak

Thoughts on the team

Jarryd Hayne: Been in very good form over the last few weeks and was an automatic selection
Blake Ferguson: Freakish player that is capable of anything is a risk worth taking, been in stunning form for the Raiders. My favourite player as well
Josh Morris: Hasn't scored a try this year but has been solid for the Bulldogs, did very well last year and deserves to keep his spot
Michael Jennings: Been terrific for the Roosters and is a far better player from last year, has performed in Origin previously.
Brett Morris: Been strong in a misfiring Dragons backline and was probably automatic.
James Maloney: Been outstanding each week for the Roosters plus his goal kicking percentage and partnership with pearce gave him the nod. Great to see him get a NSW start
Mitchell Pearce: Always debated but hasn't done a thing wrong this year and is 3rd in the league with try-assists.

James Tamou: Deserves to keep his spot he is one of the best front rowers in the world
Robbie Farah: Was one of the Blues best last year and should've been in the team since 2008. Suck it Ennis
Paul Gallen: Automatic nothing to say
Ryan Hoffman: Great to see him back in Origin, has been nothing short of tremendous since returning to the Storm
Luke Lewis: Automatic, good to see him starting instead of coming of the bench
Greg Bird: Automatic and has been strong for the Gold Coast

Kurt Gidley: How does he make it? covers positions but that's all
Anthony Watmough: Been strong for manly and deserves to keep his spot, great player
Andrew Fifita: Deserves to make the team after being goliath for Cronulla, can you beleive the Tigers got rid of him for Blair
Trent Merrin: Been super for the Dragons and deserves to keep his spot

Basically I'm happy with each selection apart from Gidley
 
Re: NSW Blues Game 1 team leak

Surely they won't actually start with that back row. I can see Lewis and Watmong swapping so he can play middle third.
 
Re: NSW Blues Game 1 team leak

Gidley enrages me even as a QLDer.

Theyre always talking about needing the extra edge in Origin and this bloke aint it, and never will be.
 
Re: NSW Blues Game 1 team leak

Yep the leaked side was accurate, not sure what to make of the side. It's a bit, well, pissweak but at the same time could score a few points.
Pretty light on for props so they are going to try to play an expansive game. I can see them just being hammered down the middle.
 
Re: NSW Blues Game 1 team leak

We should do to them what the Dogs did to us on Friday night.

Except we have more attacking power in the backs than just BB :thumbup1:

Re: NSW Blues Game 1 team leak

And now he's been ruled out.

Well done guys.
 
Re: NSW Blues Game 1 team leak

Gonna enjoy watching Farah struggle to play 80 minutes.
 
Re: NSW Blues Game 1 team leak

Who's gonna replace him? Probably Sutton
 
Re: NSW Blues Game 1 team leak

He isn't much of a loss
 
Re: NSW Blues Game 1 team leak

Thing is it can't be anyone who's worse.
 
Re: NSW Blues Game 1 team leak

That evens it up a little bit.
