That is still a lot of talent if injuries can be less.
ah yes, his attack was shithouse, but he put his hand up in defence, and led from the frontI was impressed with DCE and Hunt’s defence. DCE judo flipped Haas at one point.
Next year, something like?

Ideally for QLD sake, Bellamy has splurged on Coates because of Falou nostalgia and turns him into a gun centre.Far too early for Cobbo IMO.
Yeah, we're don't have much depth in the outside backs but I'd be looking at pushing Gagai to the wing before selecting Cobbo. I think the Hammer showed he can play at centre and play well. Cobbo is still a year or two off nailing down a first grade spot let alone playing Origin.
I know Brimson is undersized for a centre but I'd go with
1. Ponga
2. Holmes
3. Brimson
4. Hammer
5. Gagai
or if Coates shows some improvement at the Storm
1. Ponga
2. Holmes
3. Gagai
4. Hammer
5. Coates

He played 40 straight minutes of origin, he was clearly out on his feet. It was something I noticed in game how fatigue he had. Poor coaching reallyWatching the highlights again, at some point someone is going to have to tell Haas to fix up his goal line defence. You can't even blame the fatigue here, he doesn't play 60-80 minutes for NSW. He's just a terrible defender, and Hunt can pretty much dedicate his MOTM award to Haas.
Farrrk. This is a vexing result. There's a part of me that is happy that we avoided the sweep, but jesus christ QLD's future over the next 5 years is looking bleak.
