Did you just use stats from 2020? :tearsofjoy:
Of course to highlight Nichos experience in FB and I'm sure he would bring more to the team than Teddy 100%.. Ball playing and running to boot with every attribute to meet the challenges. Great attacking spine with kicking talent across the park including Burto on the Bench.

That would be my team. I would use mcinnes or de bellin at lock though. I prefer a mungrel worker for 80 in the middle. They can use him at 9 for 10 minutes to give cook a spell. Jake misses out this year.

Three players need to be dropped no matter what happens from now til origin 3, Tedesco, Luai and Yeo. These were amongst the first picked last few years but they haven’t delivered

Latrell deserves a crack at the fullback spot if he is fit. If your looking to pick for the future, Latrell needs to have his shot at making the fullback spot his own. Edwards, as great as he is at club land, doesn’t do it for me and tbh I want less Penrith in the side.

Burton has to be picked no matter what. Can’t believe he’s been left out twice. His left boot is a monster and he covers the whole backline in case anything goes wrong. He’ll have Walsh seeing stars trying to catch his bombs.

Haumole and Keaon are picked as well. NFI what Hudson Young or Frizell offer that these two don’t.

Murray in to starting lock. Klemmer in instead of Paulo. De Belin to play the Jurbo role. Idc about his indiscretions, he’s the best defensive middle in the NRL. A bench spot for hooker is a complete waste. Either JDB or Murray can play in case the worst happens. Go for an attacking weapon or another forward. Not fussed who the hooker is, both are great players.

1. Latrell
2. To’o
3. Campbell Graham
4. Burton
5. Fox
6. Walker
7. Hynes
8. Haas
9. Robson
10. De Belin
11. Keaon
12. Haumole
13. Murray

14. Edwards/Moses/RCG/anyone other than Cook
15. Martin
16. Klemmer
17. Leniu


I’d also be fine with Moses starting or Walker. Hynes gets his shot at either 6 or 7.

Anybody else think Jacob Preston is built for Origin? Just does his job & is good defensively. Need workhorses in Origin like how QLD have.

Yes don’t think he would let anyone down. Maybe 12-18months away physically.

Here is a tip for cochroach central which I am sure will get shouted down.. If Billy Slater was looking at NSW players for origin for game 3 he would probably look at Gutherson for the 1 and Teddy on the Wing with Walker at 6.

Let rip.

latrell ruled out until round 21 so nsw will most likely use Campbell Graham at center

Troll-Mitt is really becoming injury and suspension prone

To me if you see pictures of him he doesn't look after his body. He has chicken legs supporting his massive upper body.

Viliami Penisini at right centre? Pretty solid in attack & defense.

Anyone who doesn’t have Edwards at FB is a space cadet.
