NSW side might be a tad light (too many back rowers) but they have a host of quality back rowers and not that much up front.

 

[QUEENSLANDER]

Like the teams mate, but Kaufusi? really....?

 

[Coxy]

He's my bolter :P If he can string some games together for the Cows and show some form, he's a front rower who provides a bit of difference to the Hannant/Shillington/Civoniceva mold.

 

[QUEENSLANDER]

hed better start soon coz hes been ordinary ever since moving north

Dont really know some positions they will choose. A lot harder to pick NSW team then Queenslanders. I guess because we have succh great players.

 

[Professor47]

NSW have no top notch props

 

[Donny]

For the first time in a very long time i think Queenslands backrow will be stronger then NSW.
11. Thaiday - has been by far the best backrower in the comp IMO
12. Myles - Probally been the second best in the comp along with Watmough and Lewis
13. Harrison - A bit quiet to start the year but its origin and we all know how well he can play

Here is a though Ben Lowe anyone, Toowoomba boy who went to St Marys? I actually went to school with him. He has been playing awsome for the bunnies, probally no a suprise that they lost when he was missing.

 

[Coxy]

Ben Lowe is playing well. But my view stands that selectors shun Souths players unless they've been there, done that. Yesterday showed why. They are capable of an abominable performance on occasion, and nobody is immune.

 

[Donny]

I think if boyd isnt on the bench then we should go with the two front rower two backrower on the bench.
14. Matt Scott
15. Shilington
16,17. Stagg/Croker/Bolton/Lowe/Taylor

Any thoughts? I havent factored in Steve Price because i dobut he will be fit enough to play

 

[Black Philip]

Editing my QLD team cause I can.

1. Slater
2. Folau
3. Inglis
4. Tonga
5. Tuqiri
6. Lockyer
7. Thurston
8. Price/Hannant
9. Smith
10. Civo
11. Thaiday
12. Myles
13. Harrison

14. Scott
15. Hannant/Shillington
16. Bolton
17. Costigan

The need for a utility is a myth. Harrison will play 2nd receiver and the backline will be reshuffled if there is an injury. Two props and two back rowers on the bench to keep the pack fresh, giving our ridiculously talented backline the room they need to rip apart NSW.

 

[Anonymous person]

yeah you only need a utility if none of the players on the field can adequately play a completely different position. with Smith, Harrison, Myles etc in the team, we dont need a utility as between them we have the personnel to handle an injury in any position.

 

[Jeba]

Well 3 weeks out from selection. Let's put the Storm talk behind us and look forward to ORIGIN!!!!!!

I'm going to assume Storm players will be available.

1. Slater
2. Tuqiri
3. Inglis
4. Tonga
5. Folau
6. Lockyer
7. Thurston
8. Price
9. Smith
10. Civoniceva
11. Thaiday
12. Myles
13. Harrison

16. Scott
17. Bolton

 

[Bucking Beads]

Hannant is rumoured to be out injured for a month so he could miss the first origin match also!!
