State of Origin 2016 Predictions

[Browny]

Slater played busted this year. Fully fit he keeps the FB

 

[Broncoman]

I would really like to see Aiden Sezer get a crack at Origin this year. He is starting to mature as a player and when he was in form this year he was very good. Big fan of his kicking and passing game.

 

[Super Freak]

Well, he can't be any worse than Pearce.

But I think Pearce and Hodkinson will remain the halves.

 

[Danoz Direct]

Well, he can't be any worse than Pearce.

But I think Pearce and Hodkinson will remain the halves.

The Blues halves situation is literally a joke at the moment, they don't have any halves who are Origin standard and don't look like they will have any for a number of years at this stage.

I don't know if Guerra deserves a starting spot, I would personally have Gillett starting and him off the bench.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

If Hunt plays out of his skin, he has to enter the conversation surely

 

[tommy]

Anyone who plays out of their skin enters the conversation . But Qld usually pick and stick , and 52-6 is hard to change the side . If Mal gets the Australian gig and quits the Qld one then who knows .

[Foordy]

my predictions:

 

[broncos4life]

my predictions:

I'll be excited to see Tatey play again

 

[Nashy]

I'm referring to team selections

So was I, what's your point. Just because we have decent players coming out our ass, doesn't mean all of those players can play well in the same team.

Injuries being hidden is another big issue.
