The NSW 6 and 7 selection conundrum seems to remain the talking point

Who are the fit options?

Who are the fit options?

Walker, Hynes, Keary, Burton, Brooks, Luai…

Possibly others but some variation of those is mostly what I’ve seen. Moses MIGHT be available but likely will have played 1 or 0 games prior.

How did Haas pull up after last night? Looked very dead but did come back on to finish the game

Walker, Hynes, Keary, Burton, Brooks, Luai…

So, Hynes and somebody?

It’s a little weird because Hynes seems to be well down the list for most of the “experts”

Munster looks very dead.

Munster looks very dead.

Both teams gonna be real thin in the halves tbh

Apparently Maguire will go Moses if he's fit, even without playing a game.

Did see that. I suppose he is clearly next best available but off zero prep is wild to me.

If munster is gone I don’t know who the 6 for queensland is… probably dearden? Or maybe Walker makes the switch from the 7.

 

[phantom13]

Paul Gallen has put out his preferred NSW side.

1. Teddy, 2. To'o, 3. S.Crichton, 4. Mitchell, 5. Lomax
6. Luai, 7. Hynes, 8. Haas
9. Brailey, 10. J.Trbojevic, 11. Martin
12. Young, 13. Yeo
Bench
McInnes, Leniu, Olakau'tu, A.Crichton

... As a maroons fan i hope he gets his wish, that team is a ****ing mess.

 

[Jatz]

Blayke Brailey I'm assuming?

Seeing CTE in full swing there.

Its a truly bizarre mix of reputation, form and... whatever.

Its truly a mess.

 

[phantom13]

Maam or Dearden for the Maroons 6?

I think Maam is more a like for like with Munster (Ball runner) and probably more complimentary for DCE.

 

[Aucklander]

 

[phantom13]

I still don’t think Luai is origin quality but his form has been unreal.

All in all that’s not a bad team

 

[Aucklander]

QLD by plenty.

 

[phantom13]

QLD by plenty.

They didn’t go Teddy or Walker or any of the other boneheaded shit Gallen and some have our forward. They just seem really thin in spots. I can’t think of many changes I’d make to that team

 

[Jatz]

I like it. Not just going with the same old.

At least if they lose this time, it won't be due to a stubbornness to try something new.

State of Origin 2024: Game 1 Team Lists

Who are you tipping to win?

[phantom13]

I thought Cobbos form would have warranted a starting spot TBH. Also think Mam better compliments DCE in the halves but that would have been a VERY brave selection.

Feels like another series that NSW will come in before game 1 to be slight faves.

Not picking Fifita is on the level of some of Freddy Fittler's selections, makes no sense whatsoever. He is a weapon and has had a very good year with the Titans (arguably his best)

You can’t turn down Uncle Nick and not face any consequences!!!
