Is Cleary going to struggle to get in as the half back role next year considering how well Moses played this series or will they simply drop Moses again & put Cleary straight back in if he is fit next series haha?

Slater didn't pick our best possible team & it didn't help having Tino, Munster, Coates, Flegler & Gilbert all out injured unfortunately. Fifita should have been picked over Capewell & Ponga should have been FB over Walsh imo. Walsh is not hard enough for Origin yet imo.

Interesting point, I was wondering about it myself. I guess they could go Cleary 7 / Moses 6 and boot Luai who, playing for the Tigers, will probably struggle.

I think they’ll give a Cleary/Moses combo a crack.

I guess we'll see who's fit 1st but I doubt they'll drop Luai even if all 3 are fit, Luai seems to be loved by all of NSW (not surprised though). Mind you, if Luai is going to Tigers next year he may not have the same impact as he has had last few years. They'll always pick their favourites though.

Cleary is the best player in the game when fit. He's first picked if he's available. Moses to play 6.

Moses and Luai, first choice halves. Cleary has had his chance, and he has also struggled whereas Moses has risen to the occasion and now has become an origin legend and first choice halfback.
Luai has also matured this year after being given the responsibility of playing 7 and managing games for Penrith. See how he goes at Tigers, he'll be the main man there, and he likes that

The game 3 blues squad are the ones to keep the same if not injured or out of form next year. As for left centre, i dont care if its latrell or Best, both can do the job, it will come down to who's in better form or available.
You could probably drop Jake T and have Barnett start, and then put another impact forward on the bench that plays edge and middle like Koloamatangi. Stephen Crichton should be Captain
