    Kill Jennings, replace him with Vunivalu - win the series.

    Matty Johns is putting Joey's name forward... although I thought he was still banned from camp for calling Greg a black cunt?

    I'd actually like to see Gus come back - we won't win a game, but at least he'll be out of the commentary box!

    I swear he dropped before game one - I was watching him during the commercials on the LiveStream. He became distressed and confused when the fireworks went off.

    If Hasler had a clue about player selections I'd pick him in a heartbeat. Problem is we'd see retarded selections like Hopoate or Morris at fullback and a weird forward pack.

    Fittler or Joey would be disastrous.

    Tooves or Carty could work, even though they didn't play for Canberra.

    I think they should forget this standalone coach thing in trying to replicate QLD. I'd much sooner take a club coach like Flanagan over Johns, Fittler etc.

    Hasler, Robinson and Bellamy are the best coaches in NSW imo. Bellamy was awful so rule him out. The other two I think would go okay. Much better than fucking Toovey or Cartwright.

    I reckon Gus will have a crack. Earlier he didn't see Qld as vulnerable. Now we are a little bit. I think he'll do it. NSW suddenly have a lot of good players coming through and Qld don't really have much new and if we do, they won't get a look in until the old firm crack.

    So for 2017, Chambers obviously comes back in for O'Neill. If Slater returns to his full ability in 2017 we can move Boyd back to wing and Oates drops out. I know Billy's committed to return but whether he's hampered by the surgery or not is yet to be seen. If he is, obviously we keep Boyd at fullback, as he's been excellent, and leave Oates on the wing.

    A lot will depend on who plays lock for Brisbane next year. Frankly I think Papalii is the best player available to play both lock and left edge. He's superb. But we can't play him in both. Though he is a shit cunt, Thaiday has produced some excellent performances for QLD on his favoured right side. And with Gillett's improving defence, I wouldn't be against him replacing Parker in the middle and Thaiday back to the right.

    Napa comes in and Lillyman, Myles and Guerra fight for the two remaining spots. That's how I see it anyway.

    One positive for NSW (well, negative for Queensland anyway) is their general loyalty/experience policy and O'Neill. He only played because Chambers was injured so he'll drop back out at full strength, but he'll probably stay first reserve outside back ahead of Holmes and Munster now and that's a waste.

    I'm backing Toovey for coach.

    Justin O'Neill was far better over the two origin games than you cunts care to admit.

    It's great news that people think this. :D

    He wasn't a liability but Queensland could do so much better.

    He wasn't terrible but he wasn't exactly good either. He's just not good enough to play Origin.

    Oates has his jersey for years to come. If Slater somehow manages to play for QLD again, Slater and Chambers replace Gagai and O'Neill.
