Well it could have significant implications for the future. I'd much rather get a look at potential options for next year in this dead rubber.
Jack Bird should come in for Dylan Walker ffs. Bird right centre and Leilua left centre. It's such a fucking obvious selection to make. I said before game 2 that selecting shit centres would directly cost us and that's exactly what happened.
YEah I guess they should definitely retain the bloke who realistically isn't in the top 5 centres in the state. They should also ignore the best attacking outside back available to them after scoring 3 tries in 2 games, 1 being off an intercept.
Yeah I said this before game 2. But apparently he's fucking busted and needs ankle surgery. For that reason alone I'd postpone his debut until Game 1 next year. Should just about be first winger picked IMO.
Josh Mansour has proved me wrong so hard out of everyone and that makes me happy. I thought positional stuff and ball control would be his undoing but he's played the best 2 wing games from a NSW player consecutively in ages IMO. Kudos to him because he's a fair whack too short of being a gun modern day winger realistically. The rest of his game is making up for that though.
So you blokes want Leilua over Jennings, Trbojevic over Brett Morris, and Ryan James and Jake Trbojevic over Trent Merrin...
Yep I was thoroughly impressed. The only error I can remember him making was being out of position for Maloney's pass.
Jennings can gagf. No point having a winger outside of him. Leulia is twice the player he is. I firmly believe that Trbojevic is twice the player Morris is as well. Can do everything Morris can do, and do it to a higher standard
Not to mention Brett Morris, if he even plays next week, will have played 80 minutes in like 9 months. I don't mind him playing next year but picking him on the back of maybe one game would be ridiculous given he's about to turn 30.
It was my understanding that he was playing this weekend. If not then yeah I probably wouldn't risk it after only 80 minutes but I have nfi what turning 30 has to do with anything. Wtf is it with some of you people and player ages?
You just said Trbojevic is twice as good. I realise that's hyperbole but fuck me you must rate Trbojevic pretty highly or Morris as pretty average. Morris is first outside back picked afaic. That you would consider leaving him out is bizarre to me.
