QLD Squad 2020

The standout option for Queensland centre is Israel Folou - playing the house down in the English Super League and the only recognised, experienced centre available to Queensland.

Oh wait ... he quoted the world's most read book of all time. Apparently in today's totalitarian Australian that means you are no longer considered human..

Or...it could be he is half way around the world in an area of the world where COVID is raging and if he comes back for it, would have to miss a couple of months of football for his club side and would have to quarantine on arrival back in Australia, etc. AND only one bloke has ever been bought back from England in the 3 decades of origin.

But yeah, it could be what you said.

Is he actually going that good?

Awesome ... won a MOTM award in one game. Scored one amazing individual try (step, speed, running over the top of the fullback), and set up another couple.

He hasn't lost much from his peak - and at his peak he was one of the best footballers we've seen. Is still an amazing target for the ball-in-the-air, and his defense is solid.

I guess the proof is in the pudding

Man of the match performances in English Super League - making them look like amateurs.

Let's hope Bennett pulls a few strings to make it happen.

Bennett doesn't have the strings to pull.

first his club would have to release him ... unlikely

then he would have to somehow be able to enter Australia despite our international borders being closed due to a pandemic. even more unlikely

finally, the NRL would have allow him to play. never going to happen (for 2 reasons)

Not saying it should happen but didn’t Tom Hanks just fly into Australia? If all the other reasons didn’t exist he would be able to come in if he wanted to.
 
Ponga in doubt for Origin, has a torn labrum in his shoulder. Will need to have surgery now to be fit for Round 1, or delay it so he can play Origin and risk missing the start of next season.

I think he'll opt for the surgery immediately.

Vlandys wont have a bar of it.....itd upstage his SBW masterstroke...and thats worked out well for him hasnt it
 
If Bennett can get a win or even just make it competitive this series, then he really is the greatest coach of all time.
