    Oh never mind. Scott hit with a shoulder charge. lol I give up with this NRL administration. It's just pitiful.

    Ah yeah. This is definitely worth missing an Origin...Not even penalised at the time. All the news outlets reposting the video as a great big shot.



    Give me a fucking break. That is a great hit.

    7 years without a charge and even an early guilty plea means he misses Game 1. Well done NRL. How much self-inflicted damage can you possibly do to your own game...

    So Kasiano can smash Thurston in the back totally off the ball and causing whiplash, and take an early plea. Doesn't miss a week. What the fuck is going on in this game atm?

    Gotta admit tho Wilson that’s a bit of a joke. Imagine Fifita missing the GF for something like that...game just continues to get softer and softer.

    Thankfully that didn't happen because he scored the greatest Grand Final try of all time. But yes, I would be filthy

    Yeah very similar to RCG. Same sort of build. Very aggressive. But their aggression papers over the fact that they’re not that brilliant. Neither make 90m a game, and neither have an offload really. Neither particularly good defensively either except for their big hits.

    Goes missing a bit, defnitely needs to make more metres.

    Lol he played 37 minutes for less than 50 running metres.

    There's nothing disingenuous about it, lose the chip.

    He played 10 fewer minutes than his average and the last few he was clearly on one leg. His numbers were poor obviously but you don't need to skew them to make it look worse. Just a detail...

    Anyway it's beside the point. Your point that QLD can't pick a pack to match NSW is obviously false. Our Game 3 pack last year more than matched it and it was weaker than the pack I just picked. NSW's pack will be weaker as well.

    I'm not skewing anything, you're just salty because I said something negative about Matt Scott.

    I don't see how Qld's pack gets better without Cameron Smith. Even if you want to argue that player for player the pack is stronger.

    We’re talking at cross-purposes a little. I’ve just been talking about the running forwards when talking about the pack.

  15. Toolman TR Man

    they're actually going to pick james roberts with mitchell on the other side aren't they lol. what a defensive nightmare. i'd pick mitchell because he can create something with his size but no fucking way would i pick roberts, he's only useful if there's space to move which is hardly that often in origin

    Apparently Ryan James got picked too.

    Agree with Toolman. Been saying it for years before Roberts even got to Brisbane. Yes he’s fast and can be dangerous but he’s a one dimensional player and can’t tackle for shit.

    Apparently Matt Scott wont be selected for Qld regardless if he beats the charge or not.

    Klemmer was picked which is bad for us. But Ryan James is good. He’s not an Origin player. Must be on the extended bench.

    Scott was left out by Walters.

    Arrow is apparently on the extended bench. That’s fucked. I’d sooner play him as reserve prop than fucking Glasby.

    Glasby and Papalii is not good enough to replace Wallace and Napa.
