I’m not saying his form warrants origin selection.
Just saying Qld literally have no centres.
Capewell won’t play there again, he’ll go to the bench. Gagai has a potential broken hand.
Out of what’s actually available for Qld they may have no choice but to recall chambers.
Only other centre options from memory are Mann, Sami, Lee, O’Neil. Slim pickings unfortunately.

Mbye, Opacic, Hunt, Tuala, Copley

Opacic is playing really good footy. So is Mbye. Problem is that Qld are obsessed with picking from the same teams or just picking guys who have been there before regardless of form/position.

A couple of those he went infield to slow down a tearaway. Missed a few he should have stuck to though, agree with that.

yea he actually made some good reads and decisions on when to jump out of the line to shut a play down but just couldn't effect the tackle completely but at least it slowed the ball carrier down for a bit . his decision making in defense prior to last night has been quite bad at times for us so hopefully he is getting used to the pace and timing again and can keep improving those areas , he is improving every week and has barely played a month or so of NRL since his return . he really was out of sorts the first 3 games or so.

so basically adopting the old NSW selection policy then

Chambers is a proven champion.

Has won competitions and Origin series’.
Selection isn’t out at all…

I still find it a bit of a head **** he is now on our roster.
But I’d also re-sign the veteran. It’s a no-brainer.

Knees on the try scorer?
I was listening to part of the game on 2GB and they reckon he didn’t actually hit him.
Unless you are referring to something else?

Yeah he has been cleared on what looked like a shoulder charge on the try scorer .

Seen lesser incidents get charged TBH ….

He’s mostly not been great I’ve thought, saves himself with some occasional clever plays. Shouldn’t be in our top 2 centres

Couple of brain explosions there but we got away with it. Still hope we re-sign him and he mentors the young centre options.

Jesus H Christ (apologies, Paul), but that's taking the Mickey... Ennis.

I get what you're saying, but comparing to Ennis... Just no

Alright, i’m going to say it. I’m warming to this guy. Maybe not as much as I did Ennis, but I can see what he’s bringing the team.


On an unrelated note, congrats on the incoming new baby.
