100% Tom Dearden showing him how it is done. Cleary or majority of the Penrith team shouldn't be picked again. Yeah good at club land but in origin they have no idea

  The only ones I'd pick from the Penrith team for NSW are To'o and Martin. Edwards, Cleary and Yeo all need to go.

    1000% correct , Edwards is the worst fullback to play for NSW since Kurt Gidley.

      Edwards is so fucking slow. He couldn't get outside his man all night. Both him and Robson fucked every set play we had in attacking positions.

    Exactly the ones I was referring to without naming but even last night Martin did have that dog in him he usually does in origin, he was well below par. Yeo shits me to tears in sky blue as well.

You can't play state of origin injured and be the main playmaker.

Should Katoa have been picked even maybe at 5/8 as cover especially with his kicking game compared to Luai

One of the many reasons why origin is a joke.., for many years with panthers players being picked over players that deserve a spot is pretty unfair

Unfortunately if you don't allow him to man manage a game he's struggles because he's not naturally gifted. All this rediculous goat and immortal talk is well and truly finished tonight.

  You just saw 17 guys in blue get bent over

"Cleary is not the only reason why NSW lost, but he's never been a big factor in NSW winning.
Don't get me wrong, he's a great player and is godly at the club level, but he just hasn't been able to stand out at the origin level.
Also a half's job is…"

"His played more games than any other nsw halfback. I think he has won1 series and never won a decider. His papers should be stamped now for sure. Yeo is not a captain or a ball player at that level. IS only a workhorse. As soon as Laurie got picked…"

"Reece Robson is a decent defensive 9 but the difference in class between the 9s was huge. Qld laid in the ruck every time nsw got a quick play the ball. All Robson had to do was fall over the guy in the ruck and he would of got a penalty. If you're…"
