Drumph and Iran.

Thoughts? Did ol' Donnie Drumph go for the oldest panacea in the failing popularity playbook and start beating the drums of war to distract from impeachment?

The Captain replied to Mallee57's discussion Will Moses be in Origin 2 & Should He?
"Bingo! Spot on LB.
If he's fit he'll be picked and he absolutely deserves to be.

Many say "Just tell him he is not playing". We can do that but he has every right…"

"Oh i was more so saying it is not overly important, hence my admission of only one title in the 80's. As you said it is not overly important. It is an oddly placed competition. Those who are great are either in NRL or NSW Cup by the time they are…"

Mallee57 replied to Mallee57's discussion Will Moses be in Origin 2 & Should He?
"Well said and it's evident that Moses tends to return from Origin duties either with a new injury or exasperating previous injuries which sees him miss lots of club games and as the club doesn't really have great back up utility players it…"

Parra_Greg replied to Mallee57's discussion Will Moses be in Origin 2 & Should He?
"NO.If he doesnt play on Monday then he doesnt play origin.  How can our club be happy that he is focusing on his fitness for Origin.  Further if he is then out after Origin then that stinks and poor poor form from Moses."
