2024 State of Origin Game 3 - Other Team Lists and Game Discussion

[alwaysthesun]

Latrell does also. I meant out of the contenders for hes spot. Best is a brute

Yeah "built low to the ground" as they say. I'd of had Burton over him a few years ago but probably better to go with a player who plays the position week in week out.. either would be up for it, though.

Olakau'atu reportedly dropped for mitch barnett for game 3

 

[chemdog]

tualagi ruled out for qld with gagai taking his spot

He was ordinary in game 2, probably would've been dropped anyway, I think Cobbo makes the side stronger. Heard it's Holmes and Cobbo on the wings and Gagai and Fidow in the centres with Ponga on the bench.

think qld need 3 forwards and one utility on the bench.

don't think its necessary to have grant, hunt and ponga in the same team

Its a strange make up. NSW pack looks too good. Spencer and barnett off bench is scary. Our starting backrow should smash em to bits too

Don't the team usually leak by now?

Olakau'atu out for barnett and best to left center

with qld forwards getting smashed in game 2 it makes zero sense to have 2 forwards on the bench

Good.

2/3 changes that I would’ve made. Only other one I’d make is Burton for Watson.

 

[chemdog]

no idea who is 18th man

 

[Kempsey Dog]

Manly are huge winners out of these origin selections.They get Olokauatu back and Knights lose Gagai and Best.

Manly looked woeful last time they played without origin players, but should be different this time. Losing both your centres is hard to adjust defensively.
