  Seems accurate, I'd also add hodkinson, Williams and potentially Reynolds (who did nothing for us last year, a waste of a bench spot and still got chosen for the next game and this year) to that prediction.

  I with you Bernie! people remember his solo try against the Eels at Pirtek, I remember Jarryd Hayne and Chris Sandow having a field day going down his side and drawing him in and putting Sio over, not once but twice in the first half! then Hayne made him look foolish only to have Terepo drop the ball! and don't forget Sandow tackled him into touch.!

  Tupou will soon join the ranks of the "Specialist Immortals" Nathan Merritt, Akuila Uate, James McManus, David Williams, Anthony Quinn, Steve Turner, Joel Monaghan and Hazem El Masri...

  Hodkinson is not an Origin player.

    So Adam Reynolds instead of Hodkinson?

    How about Tafua instead of Tupou?

    Is Boyd and Inglis up against against Tupou? Beause the only advantage of that is attacking and defending aerial kicks. If All Queensland do is run Inglis against him, Inglis with simply trample him. Tafua up against Inglis seems more fitting, at least size wise.

  Was it an ex Qld Origin player who got to pick this year?

  I think if nsw use him correctly he will be a brilliant attacking weapon ! And I agree with hodkinson will be dropped for Pearce with cordner, bird and fifita coming in for Scott, Hoffman and merrin/woods

    He's matching up against Tate or Boyd either way I think he's in for a good night

    Yes to Bird, Fifita and Cordner. I also agree Scott, Merrin/Woods will be dropped but i think Hoffman will play the series and i like the idea of having a person on our team who knows what Slater, Smith and Cronk are up to.

    Cordner is out for 2 months. Same with Fifita.

  It depends which way you look at it. His attack is top notch, definately the best attacking winger of the season but except for being a high flyer his defense will be our downfall.
