Should Turbo/DCE Play State of Origin?

[The Who]

If they go in with Best, Edwards and Kiraz QLD will be able to declare at half time.

Two players completely out of form and a Super Coach only player.

And Latrene? No way.

Isn't it kind of a moot point anyway, as he can't exclude himself from selection?

 

[Brookie1973]

They shouldn’t pick him but they will. Nothing surer. Laurie Daley will be worried about losing after not picking Turbo - he would get crucified.

In my opinion, both DCE and Turbo will be picked for SOS Game One. I don't think it's a matter of should, as both of them have already said they will play if chosen. Unfortunately for MWSE, we don't/won't have any say in the matter.

Each to their own but in my opinion they haven’t brought the title home…the Dce Tom and Jake experiment failed miserably and for 10 years we have been a circus really and when looked back on they will be seen as the clowns who led the 10 yr parade

They may as well as the years ****ed anyway

Probably @Mark from Brisbane We are still only two wins away from equal second spot on the ladder, but also two losses away from equal last! It's a weird ladder this year, and that's the only certainty for 2025, IMO.

Not really a weird ladder as we’re only 8 rounds into the season.

Not sure of the rules, Jamie Lyon did though?

Putting a thought forward, with fatigue/injury would it be just that if a teams player is selected for origin then the following year they get 10k off their cap per player?

Panthers running last after eight rounds, after winning four premierships in a row is weird enough by itself. @Stuey Davis’s Socks

Thank you for your perspective view feathered friend
I see it this way
DCE , Tom and Jake would have been more successful playing with more successful clubs in the last 10 years that have won Grand finals .

The moral of the story
Its not what you have
Its what you can do with what you have

I don’t think Jake and Tom will be looked back on as clowns but will always be viewed as what could’ve been. Jake’s been exceptional for us for over a decade and if the six again rule didn’t come in he might’ve gone down as one of our best forwards (still up there imo but not quite at the same level as beaver , bk , gift etc of the last generation). Dce is probably more representative of this whole period. Lacking direction.
