How odd is it that Crossland missed out on that schoolboys tour last year.
He played under 16s and two years of under 18s for NSW and has now been picked a year young for under 20s, but never got a look in for the schoolboys tour.

Buzz Rothfield reporting it will be Maloney/Graham in the halves if Cleary is out, with Klemmer to miss out if Sims gets off at the judiciary. Crazy to think D Saf could be our only player in the game

I would rather we had none picked Tubby, and Ponga available against the Worriers but I will be considered a selfish bugger!
 
Me too Member. While I love seeing the boys play origin, it certainly knocks us around club wise (like all clubs).

If Klemmer is selected as standby, 18th man, will he be unavailable to play against Warriors?

Judiciary is generally on a Tuesday night isn't it? So I guess theyll know by tomorrow
 
I see Tex Hoy at fullback and Cooper Johns at 5/8 for NSW under 20s.
Apparently they spent a lot of time playing backyard footy together as kids.
Both are tricky little guys with a lot of confidence to try things.
It will be interesting to see how they combine.

The training sessions could be different - uncle Joey might tell Cooper and Tex to try the move they used at the Christmas get together when they were 12.

And Sutton's was even worse in Auckland roughie. And Horse Maxwell did not even see the Worriers ball touch the sideline. Annesley had to come out Monday and say decisions were wrong.

What a reward for mediocrity!

Cleary has succumbed to his ankle injury.

Pearce has been called into the Blues camp immediately!

Good for Pearce but it will make the Warriors game a though one for the Knights.
 
It's a perfect sunny day in Sydney today. I hope there is not too much dew on the playing surface tonight so it will allow our players to be at their best.

It's time to smash those Queenslanders again.
 
Mark O'Meley has his say on under 20s origin players.

Tex Hoy

Tex is really good with footwork, attention to detail and polishing back end of sets.

Luke Huth

Been very surprising. I’ve never had to coach someone like Luke who is so reserved but very intelligent. He sits back observes and does. It’s amazing to see someone analysis as much as he has.

Matt Croker

A great Taree boy with traits like Danny Buderus. He’s coming in as a Mr fix-it to clean up around the middle, bring that energy and talk.
 
live stream of under 20s has started - going through the teams now - game should start in a minute
 
4-0 to NSW - try scored by number 6.
Tex Hoy just made a clean break and got called back for a forward pass.
 
10-4 to nsw - both tries scored by the number 6.
Tex Hoy is making a lot of half breaks
 
16-4
try to 11 for NSW
NSW are converting all their chances despite Qld having the best of field position.
