NSW
1. Tedesco
2. Ferguson (sorry Tommy but Fingerson is to good to leave out atm)
3. Cotric (why will no one plays this boy where he belongs, would kill it here)
4. Mitchell
5. Addo-Carr
6. Keary
7. Cleary (the golden child will get picked, Reynolds is the form 7, expect Pearce to push his claim)
8. Klemmer
9. Cook
10. Vaughan
11. Frizzell
12. Cordner (c)
13. Jackson (if Pay moves him ffs still the best option here for the opening 15-20m with DeBelin out, i'd make Murray wait a year, getting his tyres pumped to much)

14. Bird (peachey didnt really impress me last year, doesnt look like doing anything on note so far)
15. J.Trbojevic (versatility and impact earns him this spot)
16. Pangai Jr
17. Gillard / James (Gillard has his nose in front atm)

Tommy T was one of our best and I don't think Fittler gets along with Fergo after Fergo didn't show up to a camp last year.

If Ferguson continues his current form Freddy will pick him.. it would be a crime not to

Need more evidence on fergo, carving up one of the worst teams the dogs have ever assembled is nothing to get excited about. If fergo can keep doing that against quality opposition than sure, get him in the team.

Fox and Roberts are only really effective when in open field. Fox had a high involvment, but was easily handled by the Maroons. I think Freddy will opt for Fergo and Cotric

Hahahhahaha. How anyone could consider Jackson ahead of Jake T or Murray or any other at the moment is beyond me. If it wasnt the fact that he was late getting to pre season after shoulder surgery hence deserves time to get his fitness back and the fact hes our captain he should of been dropped this week, and you want him to represent NSW???

It's purely based on the fact NSW don't have enough form front rowers... Jake on the bench allows flexibility there. If DeBelin was free to play I'd have him there. Murray is still young, origin is a different beast he won't have the luxury in the ruck in origin he has in club level

Nice choices but I'd make some changes to the NSW team.

2 - Tommy Turbo has been injured so I don't think his selection is warranted. Many have said Blake Ferguson but I think Josh Mansour would be a better pick as he's consistent. Blake is hot and cold and hasn't done much when called into origin.
3 - I'm not sure about Bird yet after 2 games. I know he got injured early but I think Roberts has the potential to be solid and to mark Inglis. If he's put into open space, it's 4 points.
10 - swap James to the bench with RCG starting.

Mansour hasn't done much in Origin either to be fair

I did actually, but thanks for the smart ass remark. I never said he wasn't good, just easy to handle... Can see Fergo on current form having more impact as Fox got sat on his ass quite a bit and we are going to want better field position than what we had in games 2 and 3
