Round 2 Discussion

[Big Pete]

Quality game from Peachey so far.

He's been one of Penrith's best today.

 

[Cult]

Boyd would have put that pass on his chest.

 

[Broncoman]

Gasnier praising Peachey for forcing the ball out of Naiqama's hands.

When it was obvious he just dropped it cold

 

[Broncoman]

Just can't believe Idris played for Australia once

I feel the same way about Merrin. You guys have this weird ability to overrate players.

 

[Cult]

Queensland are going to get screwed in the Origin by these ridiculous play the balls by players like Woods and Fifita.

 

[Big Pete]

Chee-Kam with another poor read.

And Brooks has continued his shocking performance. Seriously the Benny Hill theme would be very apt here.

Merrin one of the worst to play for Australia.

Hahaha, I can name plenty worse

 

[Big Pete]

It's been a good turn-around from Penrith.

They just kept it simple, played with restraint and backed the ability of Moylan and Martin to create opportunities.

If they're going to be a force this year, that's got to be the gameplan for them.

Overrated, slow, brings nothing to the team. I can also name plenty worse than him but he is relevant to the current game. Especially over the last ten years. NSW quota players mostly.

 

[Broncoman]

Such an embarrassing performance by the Tigers and to think i tipped them

 

[Cult]

Cleary with a try when the game is over to make everyone forget how crap he's been this year.

 

[Sproj]

NSW origin team should be:

1. Tedesco
2. Turboturtlitch
3. Bird
4. Mitchell
5. Morris
6. Maloney
7. Cleary
8. Woods
9. Peats
10. Boyd
11. Cordner (c)
12. Graham
13. Merrin

14. Frizell
15. Klemmer (great for Qld, unless Latu is eligible?)
16. Fifita
17. Peachey

Merrin brings nothing to the team? You always need his workrate, strength and offloading ability. And he has had good games for Australia.

And the season is only 160 minutes old with 24 weeks to go

:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

 

[Super Freak]

I think if Trbojevic is going to be picked then it has to be in a position where he can get his hands on the ball as much as possible.

Putting him on the wing is such a waste

No Frizell and Trbojevic on the wing?

I kind of agree but without Mansour, who
Else is there?
