Nice one, Wahs. Had my doubts at certain stages of that game.

Yeo off the bench?

Yeo off the bench?

Surprised me as well

Apparently the theory is Yeo's offloading game will go better once the dust has settled, with McInnes better suited to the beginning of the game when it's harder going with less ball playing.

After going with 'Ubuntu' last year, I wonder which alternative computer operating system will be QLD's catchphrase this year.

Maybe ReactOS.

Although, notably: "Reasons to avoid - still in the alpha phase"

Moses and Gutho back this week. Too late to save the season though.

Yeo off the bench?

Yeah I thought that was odd. I would start him tbh but I don't see his style of play as especially conducive to having an impact off the bench.

McGuinness and Robson both surprised me too. Not really sold on either. Would also have swapped Lomax and Sua'Ali tbh

Obviously don’t condone domestic violence but forcing Taylan May to sit out a season doesn’t sit right with me

He may well be guilty but that’s for the courts to decide

Given they straight up let him off for his dog shot from behind in a pub a while back he can rot for all I care.

Having a PNG team is either a stroke of genius or the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard

Rumour has it that team will be based in Cairns as nobody will live there & will be a fifo job

Never in doubt @duffer

Never in doubt @duffer

The week I didn’t back them. A solid 0/3 nightmare for me this round so far

What he did as a player and especially after retirement was pretty special.

So sad. RIP

 

[Coronis]

Jeez thats sad.

I’m really hoping NSW wins but Tedesco shits the bed a couple of times.

 

[Son Of Coco]

I’m really hoping NSW wins but Tedesco ****s the bed a couple of times.

I hope Tedesco scores 9 tries and we win by 80.

I'll be equally happy if everyone in the team scores 1 each, including Madge.

Although we all know the only reason NSW conspire to lose more series than we win is so QLD don't start bleating that origin is over again. It's the mind game they play every time we beat them by 50 to make sure we come back to the field and let them win a few series. We simply care more about origin than they do.

Enormously sad loss. Seems a tremendous fella and a fine player too. RIP
