I reckon if DCE stinks it up again in game 2, then we should blood the Walker kid in game 3.....aside from the lack of other options, the young bloke looks like he has the goods to handle it.

We can't keep persisting with Cherry Evans

He's still captain isn't he? Like Glenn, even if he should be dropped, he won't be.

Bet the former member Rocky loved the game.

Hope the Storm are now worried that they signed a 💩 player in Coates

Bottom line gents....Blues at this point have an obscenely great side. It would of been similar to NSW having to look across the park and seeing Slater, Locky, Thurston, Smith, GI, Hodgo etc. Just too much strike all over the place. They could of beat us yesterday with the Sister's of Mary in their front row. Hat's off to them, they are a whole different level. Literally you could just package them as the Kangaroos tomorrow. The roaming three fullbacks with that spine were unstopable. I don't like it but, I'm not supposed to.

We can still best this lot. We might not have their depth of talent but that still doesn't mean we can't put out a side with some x factor to trouble them

Definitely.......happened last year......happened with "fatty's team".....been happening for years. As they say....on any given day, give us QLDr's half a chance and we'll usually take it.

NSW put it altogether on the field last night. They played particularly well. That said, it's not a gimme that they'll be able to do it again.....

Is Neil Henry around the squad in any capacity? Would be good to get him in to help Green.

We may go a bit better next game, I felt Munster was definitely underdone coming from Injury, but we need better outside backs.

Even though QLD generally can outplay their ability, I do think the gap between our Players and NSW is probably too large this year, we have absolutely no answer to Turbo, and Latrell can walk through our edge with ease.

What Is happening with QLD Players coming through?

Got players coming through in all positions except the centres (that I know of, I'm sure @1910, @Smokin' Joe or @Big Pete will probably know of someone).

This is what I said to my dad this morning, I can't see a QLD'er in the Aus side..

There will definitely be some Qlders who make the Aussie side, warranted or not - Grant, Fifita, Munster and possibly Papalii and Tino.
