Josh Dugan in the centres wtf

Seriously can we afford to play Dugan in the centres for origin? Surely a specialist centre should have been chosen. Nothing against Dugan but is he going to be able to play as a centre and stay in position against Inglis? Maybe a swap with Hoppa would be better. Thoughts?

  • Moray first off WTF have you been buddy, youve been missed.

    I rate Dugan, i think he will have a huge game although your right mate, i dont think id play him centre, id play him wing, is it a cert he will be playing centre? i highly doubt it.

    • I have not been on here much lately Snake as I have been snowed under with work but I am back one buddy.
  • I have a sneaky suspicion that in attack Hoppa will play in the centres, Dugan has just been names there to handle Inglis in defence. 

  • Dugan has trouble handling a bicardi.breezer let alone the defense of a centre.

    Have a guess where Beau Scott will be parked all the time he is on...!?
    • That's the beauty of having a strong edge defender in Scott, gives us a bit more assurance in making such a risk.
      Personally, i'm not too happy with Dugan being named in the centres either, but theres no doubting he's a quality ball runner and has potential to be a top centre.

    • Its my hope and silent joy that scott and bird snap thurston,smith and slater whenever possible.
      Little of the ball, loved every one in game 1.
  • I think anyone who did what Dugan did last year deserves to miss rep footy for 2 years.

    The bloke's a disgrace whether he is a quality player or not.

  • It should of been hoppa at center and richards or mansour on the wing

    • +1 This.

  • Get ready for a square up. QLD to win game 2
