Freddy did coach the NSW U16 well and has the City/Country experience tooCannot believe people are suggesting Johns and Fittler twiddle de and twiddle dumb. NSW needs inspiration not a comedy act won't do it but someone like Belly ache.

meanwhile in a few years, in a parallel galaxy the NSW SOO squad comprises
Trent Barrett coach (motivator of men and ex NSW rep)
1 James Tedesco
2 Josh Ado Carr
3 Dylan Walker
4 Alex Johnson
5 Bevan French
6 Matt Moylan
7 Ivan Cleary (gk)
8 David Klemmer
9 Api Koroisau
10 Shannon Boyd
11 B Cordner (c)

13 J Bird
14 J Trbojevic
15 Paul Vaughan
16 Ryan James
17 Tyson Frizzel
18 T Peachey
19 Josh Mansour
20 T Trbojevic
Cordner to bounce back after shocker in game 3 - 2017
Larry Dooley, Mitchell (woof woof) Pearce, James (Past Use By Date) Maloney, Aron (never was as good as he could have been), and Andrew (thick as two short planks) Fatfita banished. Ferguson, Duggan and Morris all put out to pasture for younger faster models, their past efforts duly noted.
IMO those who should never be seen again as a player or coach in Origin are:
Laurie Daley, Mitchell Pearce, Jarryd Hayne, Aaron Woods.
Daley, Pearce and Hayne I can see gone. Woods I'm not so sure about. I think that he has a love affair with the selectors.....
How's this for an 'out of left field' idea.Cannot believe people are suggesting Johns and Fittler twiddle de and twiddle dumb. NSW needs inspiration not a comedy act won't do it but someone like Belly ache.
I tend to agree. Really, i don't really understand how Hayne made it into the side, he has been here there and everywhere and just strolls into the NSW side as if its a no brainer. Hayne had not even been in the country or the code for that matter. Give the younger guys a crack, as what have the blues to loose. Moylan is devastating this year.I think players like Hayne and many others become a selling tool for state off origin and quite frankly should not be there."The Hayne plane", yea put him in the side that will work.Before the blues ever win another series admin has to get their sh....t together.State of origin is not about 1 game its about 3.They must think its more about selling the series than winning the series and as a matter off fact i think NSW has sold out.This is what i hate more about origin than our very own getting injured.The whole code is full of political bull crap. As long as politics is running the code then things will not change.I think it's becoming who you know and how much money can be made out off each individual.Its amazing how players can turn around and say i am going to play union now then afl then nfl then whatever and come ponsing back to league as if they have been there all along while we have other up and coming good players flat out trying to get passed reserve grade.This is why i love Manly because despite all that is read in the media we at least do our best to look after our own and any other player that comes up the ranks including players that join our club.Origin is NOT like that.Origin and clubs are opposites.NSW need a whole change of identity and culture. Stop picking players in positions they haven't performed in, stop picking players based on past performances from years ago. Pick the form players, not the grubs or the dirty players.
My plan I'd like to see NSW implement.
