QLD Squad 2020

[Huge]

Oh ye of little faith. Our team has just the right amount of mediocrity. Add a dollop of Queenslander and viola, SOO legends are made.

 

[Petch67]

The forwards will lay a decent platform but that backline will kill everything they get, they would make the Broncos backline this year look competitive.

Milford for munster i obviously dont see the games munster kills it

 

[Petch67]

I'd prefer Gagai on the wing and get a defence-orientated centre next to him even if it's a regular forward.

Thats one bloke i wish we kept

 

[Petch67]

Corey Allan
Dane Gagai
Dunamis Lui
Josh Papalii
Jaydn Su'A

All join the Maroons squad.

All former Broncos juniors too.

I didnt realise papali was......gee hes been good over a long period

Qld or the broncos....or both?

 

[mrslong]

I reckon game 1 the side will lineup like:

1. AJ Brimson
2. Edrick Lee
3. Brenko Lee
4. Dane Gagai
5. Xavier Coates
6. Cameron Munster
7. Daly Cherry-Evans (C)
8. Moeaki Fotuaika
9. Harry Grant
10. Josh Papalii
11. Felise Kaufusi
12. Tino Fa’asuamaleaui
13. Jai Arrow
14. Ben Hunt
15. Jadyn Su’A
16. Christian Welch
17. Pat Carrigan

Yikes

I know this is more Broncos' signing related but I wonder if it might be worth offering Welch a four year deal and see if he can break his deal for next year. I think he is exactly what we need in the forwards after last night, he really stood up in the big moment.

 

[Fernando]

6-17 looks great. Brimson will be OK at 1. We just need to 2-4 to not get obliterated, which will be a big ask.

 

[Fernando]

I'd have Capewell at centre and Gagai on the wing. Coates is not up to it.

 

[Fitzy]

I'd have Capewell at centre and Gagai on the wing. Coates is not up to it.

yeah he's not up to scratch defensively and i'd much rather Capewell but i just doubt they will do that

 

[Fitzy]

Goddamn, this will take a miracle for QLD to win...

you say that but our forward pack is underrated and they are definitely up to it, assuming they go with Grant our spine decently competes with theirs our centres are solid now that Lee has kinda had an outbreak season, its just our wingers who lack spark consistency and defence... but that saying round the ball NSW are comparatively better in basically every area

 

[DigitalDaz]

I'd have Capewell at centre and Gagai on the wing. Coates is not up to it.

How Coates was chosen over Feldt I'll never know.

 

[Sirlee oldman]

How Coates was chosen over Feldt I'll never know.

Maybe because Feldt was unavailable

 

[FaceOfMutiny]

Coates isn't even ready to be the winger for the Broncos... wtaf are they thinking... Is there really no one else? Did selectors watch that one really good try he did? He just isn't close to being ready.

 

[Unbreakable]

Coates is literally no chance. It'll be either Capewell & Brenko in the centres with Edrick & Gagai on the wings or it'll be Gagai & Brenko in the centres with Edrick & Allan on the wings.

I'd say option 2 is more likely, because it makes it easier for Holmes to just slot in on the right wing for Game 2 & 3.

 

[_wwong]

Even Oates would be better on the wing than Coates.

I think?

I stuffed up, I originally didn't have Papalii in the list when I made the Broncos comment, then I noticed they buried his inclusion under the lead and went back to edit.

4/5 were all Broncos juniors.

He would have been handy Pete
