HE IS NOT PICKED TO play 80min or play even 50 minutes as he does for the bulldogs.

An example of that 20 min spell he did in the second half in yesterday's game is all he needs to do for the blues. That said, he is also not the main guy and has the responsibility to be required to run 150m.

He will come on in the last 15 min of 1st half to change the game if blues are on the Blackfoot.

Or just come on in the last 20 minutes if it's close and do what he did yesterday.
He has played alot of short stints for us, but I didn't see to many good ones like he did in his last stint against the titans yesterday

Will make Origin 1 way more interesting than if it was Jake T! It is possible he will try and take someone's head off with the first tackle of the game and get sent off ..... or he may play a perfect 30 minutes making 40 tackles with 0 misses and running for over 200m ....

Lol Pangai playing Origin. He is hardly good enough to play 1st grade. Surely Fittler was told he owed Gus a favor so Gus can now window shop him. Seriously perplexed as to how he made this side.

At least we don't lose him for a game as we have the bye

At his best TPJ is one of the most destructive forwards in the game. In the 2021 semi he took on the storm forward pack himself and got the panthers into the GF.

Hopefully this could be a turning point in his career

Shows how limited the blues forward stocks are
Nah just shows that Freddy et al realises they need someone with mongrel. With Martin and Young also there, NSW will go full tilt.

Other forwards we could have picked - King, Klemmer, Utoikamanu (he’s in extended team), Jrbo (possibly under injury cloud though), Saifiti bros., Tatola, Olaka’atu etc. plenty of good NSW forwards.

In terms of damaging players, TPJ has all them covered, with the exception of Olakaatu, but he is an edge player really
