Bloody joke that Watmough isn't in there... Also please tell me Lawerence is injured? We deserve to lose if we just overlooked him. Disappointed with Farah at hooker his style of play doesn't suit Origin. Also wouldn't have minded Hinchcliffe in there. Creagh selected again is a ****ing joke.

Isn't watmough out from injury this weekend?

In any case, this is why nsw loses - they pick these cats:

Creagh
Buhrer
Farrah

On top of that - Jennings?

ffs - this is why I couldn't give a flying f@@k about origin this year.

funny thing listening to 2GB on the way home and a dragon supporter rang up and said she couldn't believe Creagh got picked.

I hope Ricky see's something that I don't

If he picks Creagh, we all see something that he don't - he's *****...

I think that team is ok. With Pearce and Carney there we need points and our backline offers lots. Look at what Carney is doing for Pom and Best. While some other players could be there I think it is ok. We need mobile blokes and our bench has that. Gal and our back row can play 80 so we don't need that much from our bench.

Almost bit my tongue off when I heard Buhrer announced. I don't see how he's a better footballer than Ryan Hinchliffe in any way. He's a worse hooker, a worse backrower and not as tough or experienced.

I stopped biting my tongue off a few years ago AB.

Selectors are stupid. That is all.
