Origin debuts for Keary and Friend

[Bruce Pickett]

Congrats Keary and Friend. Long overdue.

Hope Friend is man of the series in a losing Qld team.

IMO this is a better indicator than the Dally M and they should consider leaving Origin here.

Agree.

Have Origin after the GF.

Tyson Frizell and Ben Hunt....Dragons fans must be very proud of how these two played so well this year to earn their place....NOT!

[Rooster_6]

And great to see Gus rewarded for his terrific form.

Yeh just a shame both he and Murray have both been named on the bench. Not sure how Freddy is planning to use them both.

Nah, you need origin in the depths of winter where the tv audiences are at their highest and clubs can’t force players to sit it out and get surgery.

With the small hiatus for the guys again and then back into SOO intensity...prepare for more injuries and attrition. I suspect no-one will be catching a cold on the bench.

I just hope our boys come out the other side....I'm looking at you Ted and Cords.

I can't believe there is a debate about who should be the 5/8 for NSW. Walker had his chance but was more interested in being political and filling Latrell's head with shit which ended up being the last SOO they both had, and while Walker might have ended the season better, that doesn't mean Keary can't be at his best after the small break, which is better than any other 5/8 in the comp. Plus I would really hate to be cheering for NSW if they had Walker wearing a blue jersey. If Keary couldn't play 5/8 due to injury, it should be Whigton replacing him, not Cody Wanker!

Nah Id go Cody Walker if Keary couldnt play.
He's a top player mate.
Do you think Latrell would have been picked if he was fit?

[King Salvo]

Agree.

This should be a one off with SOO reverting to it's usual slot in 2021.

What about the 2020 Dally M... you saying he didn't have a better season than Keary, Walker and Cleary?

Walker said it took a while for the new spine to gel this year, meaning the one new player Latrell. It wasn’t until round 15 that they started their momentum in their Parra game. Would Freddy be prepared to wait for a few games for Walker to gel with the new NSW spine? I honestly don’t know why he’s even 14 on the bench. He’s not a utility player, he’s just a half. Is Freddy thinking Keary will get injured? And if that’s the case Whigton has been playing better and more consistent than Wanker so if Keary did get injured, Whigton could step in at 6 and a true utility could cover. Freddy is wasting a bench spot.

As for Latrell, well he wouldn’t be picked at fullback for starters and there was only one center spot left on the right side AND I don’t get fooled by all the positive stories about how well Latrell had been playing because even though there were some nice touches, he was still very lazy in defence, however, Freddy is trying to be Woke IMO so he might have picked Latrell even though he hasn’t been that great in rep footy, like Cody Wanker!

[NorfolkStreetKid]

Walker will flop again in SOO. He and Milford are the same mould, no planning, just broken play footy. Not an Origin player. Queensland forwards will dominate NSW.

[redwhiteblue]

Great..now I have to cheer for Qld as I promised Jake I would if he ever made the squad. It's like my worlds are colliding..oh well at least Dad's side of the family will be happy..but how can I go against Freddy and Teddy and Keary on debut...this is me:

[Paddo Colt 61]

The Maroons had some quality to choose from among the 9s and I thought that Harry Grant may have been picked. Jake, in what must be his twilight years, may have the job in front of him. Origin is no place for forward passes off the ruck or refusal to engage a first receiver. Having said that it would be something to see him fire up the kicking game and nail a couple of 40/20s.

On a much more important note there's a Kevin Rudd led petition on the Net which calls for a Royal Commission investigation of the role of the Murdoch media in Australia. His near monopoly of print media (and it is a monopoly in Tasmania, South Australia, the NT and, of course Queensland) is seriously bad for Democracy which requires that the citizenry make decisions based on truthful reporting. I urge everybody who reads this and sees the malignant influence of that cancerous old mouthful of phlegm to sign up. The petition is already in excess of 450,000 signatories so add yours to that. People Power - fight the power!!
