Extended Dally M leaderboard for Round 7 of the NRL: LEADERBOARD 10 - Scott Prince (Titans) 9 - Matt Orford (Manly) 9 - Danny Buderus (Knights) 9 - Billy Slater (Storm) 8 - Johnathan Thurston (Cowboys) 7 - Greg Bird (Sharks) 7 - Cameron Smith (Storm) 7 - Brett Hodgson (Tigers) 6 - Luke Bailey (Titans) 6 - Anthony Laffranchi (Titans) 6 - Mitchell Pearce (Roosters) 6 - Robbie Farah (Tigers) 6 - Brett Kearney (Sharks) 6 - Braith Anasta (Roosters) 6 - Chris Heighington (Tigers)
Orford could go very close to winning it this year with Monaghan not around to take points off him, when Manly win then he will at least get 1 point most of the time.
How can he possibly miss out on CC? I thought the way he's played the last few games he's the one for the origin spot and a walk in the CC.
i dont think he has been in his best form and as such the selectors have gone for up and comers not someone in his last few years which is fair enough. Wallace has matched him in form and has youth on side and hasn't blown chances before. Personally i dont think he is completely out of SOO contention and on previous showings missing the game and not feeling the pressure over the next couple of weeks will only help him and his chances.
