Spence is going to get a good old howdy doody welcome from 50 thousand banana benders all the courier mail has done is fire him up he loves this shit I’m tipping back fence will have a blinder just like last time
Teddy should be there - glad Matt Roger’s came out bagging new for giving Edwards a participation award
Watson killing it this year - hope he gets more game time
Angus and Leniu have been solid and should fire
well done to rob toia ties for the least games to debut - he will be a star - tough defence assignment v Latrell
Collins luckiest guy alive not playing and poor form
if I was nsw in particular Robson or Watson I would target Collins
nsw by 6 in a close one - easily the better side but not won on paper
roosters watch:
lindsay normally goes well at this level. hope he uses the game to launch a strong end to the season
all rob has to do is not look out of place. make his tackles, keep errors to a minimum. this experience could fast track him
connor averaged little more than a quarter of an hour per game last series (still double suaalii) but he's in great form so interesting to see how loz uses him. robson's likely to play the 80 and yeo's captain so don't know.
good chance for angus on the big stage. he's been good so far this year but has another gear
good chance for spencer to show maturity. i don't think he'll let the baiting get to him and i'm looking forward to his runs
I want Bobby to have a cracking game - but hope Latrell stands up and wins it for the Blues.
Best outcome I can think of is they both have a massive battle, Lats get the better of him but Bobby wins the respect of everyone and comes back uninjured and a better player
Bobby has to get to Fatrell quickly and take him low and hard just like Shane Berrigan did to Inglis in a GF. I think toio is perhaps one year too early for SOO but just hope he has a great game and will certainly be better for the run
I hope Klown doesn’t do a repeat performance of SOO Game 1 in 2022.
That was the most blatant bias I have seen against NSW and the misuse of power I have seen at this level.
Klown is a cucking funt.
Hoping for a Blues win with all the Roosters playing well and coming out of the game unscathed. Really want Bobby to have a cracka too, really impressive on, and off the field.

Been a quiet build up this year, but as always super keen for this game.
Will be interested to see what kind of performance Gus puts in, he's come out saying he wants to dominate but he's a fair way off the attacking form he was in this time last year going into origin.
Little bit worried Spencer could pick up a suspension from this game, no doubt the Qlder's will be baiting him and whilst the game is certainly officiated more leniently, the match review committee seem to miss the memo every year.
Edwards form has been pretty average this year, selfishly worried he might have a stinker and Teddy might be there game 2. Although I would be super happy for him, not a bloke in our club who would deserve it more.
Also looking forward to watching Robson play, think a lot of our fans will realise what we've bought when you just watch his aggression and line speed. Origin is built for players like Robson.
I'm looking forward to it. Just no injuries or suspensions to our boys, please. I'm expecting a close one, less than 8 points in it.
I'm hoping for a NSW win, but I'm concerned by the QLD spine. They will be up for it after a quite build up and losing the shield in the decider last start. Has Qld ever lost consecutive games at suncrap?
Qld at home is probably an 8+ points but I think if the Blues kick smart the back 3 of Qld won’t make as many metres as NSW back 3. That should allow nsw to be in better positions to score and get a 14 point win.

Latrell mom and FTS
Agree nsw back 5 particularly the back 3 will make big mtrs and a lot more height as well out wide! Backed with a better kicking game of Moses and Cleary
qld have a quick backline who can score points but they need their forward pack to step up and stop nsw!
nsw bench is way better then qld! Collins, former and Trent wouldn’t be near the nsw side
so this may tire the qld forwards out playing big minutes
nsw easily better side but home crowd and SOO will make it close
