Cleary likely out. I'm not mad about it.
Hopefully he takes Luai with him.

Cleary confirmed out for next 2 Origin's.
Did his hammy, gone for 6 weeks.

If no Cleary, no point having Luai or Crichton. Nicho to #7, Cody Walker to #6, Mitchell back in at #3 and Cook to #14
I'd go Mitchell to fullback and Graham and Staggs to center. But will never happen while the ostriches Alexander and Fittler are in charge.

As much as I hate the moroons I hope they kick our arse just so I can watch Fittler and Alexander squirm their way out with more bullsh*t excuses.

100% agree mate. Freddy is done and Alexander should be nowhere near the selection panel for a very long time. Both are done.

Would rather Burton over Walker

Big boot. Big body. More upside longer term
Burton has the best bomb in the NRL and a strong running game but not much else, prefer him at centre or off the bench. Walker is the form playmaker in the NRL this year, passing, running, kicking, backing up all top notch. He had his papers marked by Freddy a few years ago but this year he has added control and maturity to his game.

I agree Burton has more potential long term but origin isn't about teaching players, it's about picking the best players in the best form (or at least it should be).

Like that team but have Hynes over Reynolds.
Young out for Koloamatangi/Olakau'atu.

Freddy needs to use all his interchanges on middle forwards, holding 1 or 2 in case of injury to edges.
