Can't believe there are sighs over Ennis' selection! he is the only origin hooker for the blues in my opinion..
you only have to look at game 2 and as soon as he is replaced, the maroons score up the guts where he would have been! Then when he comes back on our attack fires again!
Not to mention getting under the maroon players' skins also... Sam 'third man in' Thaiday was rattled by Ennis' constant sledging - you could see it! And I find it funny that in the lead up to each series, the maroons talk about not letting Ennis under their skin.. sorry QLDers but by simply talking about it he is already under your skin!!!

Tackle 4: Stuart's squad not a good sign
Ricky Stuart’s decision to name a 20-man squad reeks of the same indecision that saw the Australian cricket selectors pick a squad of 17 leading into this year’s Ashes humiliation. Stuart is looking to provide cover for injuries but by naming a squad sans positions, he has created uncertainty and instability. There is absolutely no way Michael Jennings should have been named considering he hasn’t played a full game since Origin I while no cover has been made for Kurt Gidley, showing the wild inconsistency in selection. New South Wales looked in the box seat after Origin II but this selection has cast a significant pall over that notion.

Enjoying the fact that even though the Queensland team is named, no one cares enough to talk about it or even post it.

Haha I knew it wouldn't be or it would have had the normal appeal to the title.
