If these clowns pick Pangai and Moses then it will re inforce that Fittler has N.F.I.
This is not a Fittler thing . It is a NSW thing feathered friend and it has been happening since day one Origin

The Tragic truth is ....Any one the NSW Blues pick are on a hiding for nothing

There is no way around the Dynamic and Dominant Maroon DNA

For those that like a dabble on the games,Manly are still $2.50 in some markets for this weekend’s Eels match.Take it before it comes in once Moses is picked for NSW
Suspended now, the dogs are barking re selections

We won the last game because the 7 didn't slide and completed the 6 ..it balanced out plus Bully and Ola are the gun seconds
 
Rumours aside, it wouldn't look great on Fittler's selection options if he picks Hynes for game 1, uses him for 10mins out of position when Turbo goes off, then doesn't pick him when the position he plays at a club level opens up thru Cleary's injury.

If Fittler chooses Moses, then he outs himself as a pretty eccentric and impulsive selector.

Will be good for us if Moses and Brown are both out I guess, but as a Blues supporter i'd be questioning the thought processses in Fittler's mushy cranium if he selects Moses and drops Nicho.
 
If Moses is picked for origin, I think you will most likely see:

1)
Gutho to half with Daejarn Asi
Sean Russell to full back (his preferred position)
Haze Dunster come in for Russell on wing

2)
Bryce Cartwright to 5/8 (one of his positions) alongside Daejarn Asi

With Ryan Matterson and Joe Ofahengaue both supposed to return from injury, Cartwright moving to 5/8 seems most likely option to me

I don't see them playing Jordan Rankin at half as he is a little off the pace, but it's possible

And I think halves like Ethan Sanders are probably a little too young to blood. Even if he is a gun and SG grand final man of the match

Thanks for your inside knowledge on possible Parra selection picks. Are you feeling confident with those players out, or a bit weary on what Manly might bring.
 
Moses being picked levels up the game for sure. Brad Arthur and the Schu should form a good halves partnership and I wouldn't be messing with Garrick and Koula in the centers. So that will give Weekes another chance to make his mark. If our pack turns up to play and we play error free footy again then it's game on.
