  Kevvie has already said there’ll be changes. The problem is that they don’t have many options where they need help, ie middle forwards.

  They surely have to find a spot for Ponga somewhere on the park.

  Hooker and Halfback man the guys that replace Cronk and Smith just don't grow on trees.

  Just gotta hope who they got grow and grow quickly.

    I don't know why they would change unless for injuries, NSW were bloody lucky Qld should of won in the last 10 minutes we're just lucky Ben Hunt seems to be the new Mitchel Pearce and unlike NSW they won't make the same mistake twice.

  The problem is they haven't got much quality to replace them with. I reckon they'll largely stick to the same team except for maybe one or two players.
  
  The crazy thing is Qld played their best on Sunday and came to win. Despite being heavy underdogs they went very close. But they played as good as those players can. Yet they still lost. NSW, however, look like they have a few gears left in them.

    I agree. I think in a lot of areas, qld were playing better. They seemed to kick better (long range) and work it out of their end better. However, nsw still won. They didnt play their best game by far but still won. Tedesco is crazy good. Cleary played well but wasnt a dominant half like he can be, Jimmy took over as he develops on that stage. It's all looking really positive for the future. Qld front row are not doing enough. Wallace. 4 runs for 45 metres. Which is good average per run. But I asked my mate after half time whether he was actually playing in the match. I couldnt remember seeing him.

      I reckon they’ll bring Jai Arrow into the 13, he was terrific

  Brilliant by freddy to bring in peachy and frizzel when they were down to 12 even though klemmer had such a great first half. It gave them a bit more speed to cover out wide and peachy is well drilled at centre to cover for Robert's.

  There was not much in this game. Personally it's always more defensive than attacking. I thought the script would read a Q win and wait for decider. Taking nothing away from 3rd game Q will play for honour​.

  Ben hunt was the difference imo. If they get rid of there grudge with dce theyll be a better team.

  One thing Toads are not known for is loyalty.

  If you are a pin up boy you are automatically in - others will be crucified at the drop of a hat.

  Even Kevvy will not be safe.

  Ben Hunt is most likely gone to be replaced by Ash Taylor, who will be just as tragic.

  DCE is very unloved north of the border so won't get a run.

  Munster will stay (Storm connection)

  At least I have the satisfaction of watching Inglis go out a LOSER! Wonder if he will go around one more time.
