I disagree, neither Tedesco nor Papy fit stylistically with the way you want to team to play (if last year is the blue print).

You pick the team you think is most likely to win and for mine Edwards is No1.

Also To'o came back ans ran for 193m, 4 tackle busts and a line break.

He is the best winger in the comp by the length of the Flemington straight
Wow I watched that game and those figures are a very big surprise… must have broken some tackles in extra time because he was not making his normal bustling runs… 193m has got me f..cked because he did not look anywhere near his top…

Not arguing that he is NOT the best winger in the game… he has played very little footy this year and he did not look great (despite those gnarly figures)
 
DCE has copped plenty on here and I'm a bit mixed as wanna support him while still in the Manly jersey, but a touch of class after the Cows game last night....a young girl in the crowd had "DCE forever a Manly Legend" or similar to this...and below, can I have your boots....so well after the game he took the walk to the sideline where she was sitting at the fence and took off those boots and handed them over to the star struck fan, who will cherish that moment forever.
Sure he has copped plenty and some deserved, but credit where it's due, many players may have waved from a distance and went to the showers but DCE made the effort and though does not change the bad that's happened, deserves praise for this show of human decency and respect - well done DCE I say

I bet her Dad steals them! (lol).

If you ever go to a NHL (hockey) game...it's like beggars row down at rinkside with all the kids holding up signs asking for sticks and pucks mainly.

This is before the game:
Oh it's my first game...gimme a stick
Oh Mum drove 1000 kilometres - gimme a puck.

shut it - stupid kids (bah humbug - lololol)
where was I? ..oh yeah....

At least some enterprising kids have signs like:
  • Packet of skittles for a puck?
  • Or one was ... rock paper scissors for your stick?

Some pretty impressive signage there GE, seems these kids (or parents) come up with a few good 1 liners to get the rewards....
Must confess, I would likely end up with 1 of DCE's smelly boots in my Bar/Sports room....well for 2025 and 2026 it goes into the firepit .... @:)
 
Surprise surprise the Dollar Chaser gets picked for QLD.
Would have been more of a surprise if he did not get picked tbh… not sure Qld selectors consider butt hurt MfB…

I found it interesting that he got slammed by people on here for his lack of impact in the cows game yet commentators to a man all thought he played great and showed a return to form..

perspective is an interesting thing and is generally the reason boxing cards can be so strange sometimes (ie. you see the punches landing that you were watching for)… OK, rigged decisions also play a part lol
 
The chooks (or whoever lands him but we all know it is the chooks) will benefit from this series…

Not a hope in Hades THAT QLD squad can win this series and that will enable the Maroons to transition their squad away from Munster and Chez and towards Dearden and Walker… Origin is not an old man’s game…
 
There was some stat I heard which could very well be made up but....Dearden has lost something like 27 out of the 28 games he has worn the number 7? I would have been extremely shocked if he was not picked

It was in Arties day. Admittedly, that was some time ago.

Last season his stats indicated there was a struck match between brooks and dce yet dce almost took out the dally m while brooks hardly landed a vote. Commentators ?

I dont mean this with disrespect frankie but popularity and public sentiment is how we judge high profile footballers, politicians and celebrities , not outcomes. And dce has ridden the sentiment wave for too long, kinda fitting its his manly downfall

Dce form is continually patchy but not until he hurt sentiment was his footy up for judgement by the masses

I dont agree with the current wave based on emotion but his form has been unprofessional , its just that simple. Maybe his form was better last week but he was kicking from a low bar

but i dont agree he is the man based on the opposite fan emotion either

Live by the sword

As I said, perspective is an interesting thing…
mine is that there is a little more than a struck match between DCE and Brooksy… 🤣
Either way, he was always getting picked because Dearden and Munster are running halves, not game managing halves… Walker is out, Hunt injured and there is not exactly a Conga line behind them…

You rock?.. yesssss! $CE has cashed in, all along the way. He has used his manager well, and played the money game very well, IMO. I also feel his handling of the latest phase has been horribly unprofessional, and it will catch up. Smart $CE may well be ahead of the money game by then, gotta admire a player.
