    I think Julian and I might balance each other out over Matai.

    Hodges domintates Matai in every way.

    Hodges is rated as a world class centre, if not the premier centre in the game. That's a joke. He's barely FG standard at times in defence. He was so clearly out of his depth in Game 3. Looked like a retarded boy playing against men. He's never done a fucking thing in Origin and yet he virtually walks into the QLD side every time he's fit.

    Matai isn't rated as one of the premier centres in the world even by Julian.

    Pretty spot on in terms of lineup. I think Buttriss will be starting hooker though. There's also the stupid chance of Thompson playing second row and Berrigan hooker.

    We're only capable of split halves because Furner's retarded. If that's the case then McCrone/Campese it is. If Morgan somehow becomes a supercoach and implements a new proper system then it should be Williams/Campese.

    The problem will be depth. If Campese or Dugan miss much footy we just lose too much.

    Word is we have money for another outside back; they're just waiting for the best option as opposed to just signing a reserve grader. Definitely need another solid three quarter option. As it stands Ferguson costs us games, Robinson has been very good but is one of the weaker first choice wingers in the comp and the backups are very raw; Drury Low, Nathan Massey (do not rate) and Jack Wighton (super prospect but very young).

    I wouldn't want to see Berrigan moved there though.

    Raiders should've bought back Phil Graham.

    Hope Berro is treated better than he was at Warriors.

    Wasn't aware he was treated badly?

    I just hope they don't entertain thoughts of playing him in the fucking centres. If they give him a run at hooker and he fails, then they drop him, then meh. But if you make him play centre don't be surprised when he flops.

    He'll play centre.

    He really shouldn't.

    He'll be in reserve grade by Round 6 then.

  15. Frizzed WC Welker

    He really shouldn't be in first grade either.

    You have no idea.

    Berrigan is easily the best hooker that the Raiders have on their books for next season.

  18. Magic AJ Parker

    Really? Reckon he did pretty well in his few games, see him as more of a 5/8 than a fullback.

    How old is Berrigan? I think he might be a bit further past it that Queensland members think.

    He'd still be my first choice hooker at Canberra though.

    He's like 33 or something.
