I think That O'Mealy should have been in the side for agression but I agree with The selection of Bird and Hoffman. I didn't really matter who was picked at halfback because i don't have that much faith in any of the 3 candidates but I personally would have gone with Gower becausee he has played well at this level and outplayed Orford and Kimmorley this weekend. Kimmorley has never impressed me at state level. They shouldn't have picked Lyon again but they were always going 2. King should have been moved the the centre and a specialiset winger bought in.
 
I thought the backline should have been:

1. Minichiello
2. Hayne
3. King
4. Cooper
5. Grothe

Much more Starch IMO but we needed a GK.
 
Arrrrrgh so angry that Lyon is still in. King should be moved into the centres and Grothe come in. Hayne and Grothe had awesome games last night and could do a lot more damage than King and Lyon. ANGRY ANGRY ANGRY! :evil: :evil: :evil:

Hayne is a goal kicker isnt he? He could have done it! Anyone but Lyon
 
Well done Kimmorley, I hope he plays the house down.

Lame that Lyon and King are still there, they both suck.

Surprised NSW haven't dropped any of their useless props from game one. And how is Simpson not starting?!?!

Kimmorly can goal kick
 
Lyon's not the best himself..

And James I can understand not having Lyon, but I think King's been good..
:P
 
a) he is a dirty, niggly player.
b) his poor defence cost us in game one.

Those are my anti-King reasons.
 
You'll find that in the case of Origin most New Zealanders consider themselves NSW or QLD. Its crazy! So stop ****ting on James haha.
 
Lose a bit with no Minichiello.

If Gidley didn't get injured coz of stupid Murray playing him at hooker, then he'd be fullback tonight!!!
 
Brett Stewart was the Blues best player though.
But Minichello is still outstanding always at Origin level.

I don't see how cameron smith got MoM..... he played good. But no where near MoM in my opinion.
Kimmorley's kicking game was good.
We just lacked creativity. NSW that is
