No “Official” status??

I’m waiting for the official thread sorry mate!

Brand power only.
None of this “imitation” stuff!

Couldn't be less pumped for this series.

Every year I can usually muster enough enthusiasm to get into it, but the last few years has ruined it for me.

One game will be super tight, either team will win my a small margin.

One game NSW will absolutely pants QLD.

One game NSW will be way too confident and will play like dogshit, QLD will get on top and then just slow down the game and win by small margin.

No thanks

Apparently Campbell Graham is out of the squad due to a last minute injury. Waiting on who the replacement is according to a few media sites online.

Or NSW will be minutes away from a series wrap up and QLD will strike and steal it

Pangai seems a very odd Choice,maybe they dont see enough offloads in that pack.Not sure Tommy T has done more than Campell Graham this yr to be ahead in the 17 either.

Doesn't matter now. Graham is injured. Is Crighton in better from though than Tommy T? I would say he is.

I would have had Graham over Turbo.
It's a tough one, if Turbo is fit, he 100% is the better pick. He's been looking underdone, but yesterday he was running much more freely.

I wouldn't have picked Luai or Teddy personally. I don't mind the rest of the side though considering the middles not available for selection.

I agree. I think it's time to move on from Tedesco.

Anyone who says they don't think it should have been Teddy probably thinks Edwards I'd assume
But you've already got two fullbacks picked in the side. If you don't have Teddy, you go for either one of them don't you?

But while I type that I must admit, Edwards at FB with Tommy and Latrell staying where they are works pretty well too.
