    Given those teams, they'd be a laughing stock if they don't win.

    I'm surprised even taken into account Qld's limited squad, they seem to have named an even weaker side than I imagined.

    The wing three-quarter line (TM Ray Hadley) would be considered below average for an NRL team.

    In the forwards, I figure Arrow or Carrigan has to start with Tino coming on later?

    And I would've thought Mofo as a bench middle for impact, picking up from big Papa, was the go. Or Raiders teammate Lui if you want someone with more experience who won't be phased by the occasion.

    So considering all this, I get serious 1995 vibes and expect Qld to win 3-0.

    I have a mate from Melb, doesn’t understand the game at all but lived round the corner from Leichhardt and liked the atmosphere. He would yell “get em onside” at random intervals to try and fit in. I guess the same way most of the Swans crowd yells “ball!”when nobody there understands the rule.

    Definitely a few that were unlucky to miss out but it is an incredibly strong team.

    I think the side would be better with Milch at 7, better all round general and typically organises well. Ill chime in with some big plays at 6 but sometimes go missing (on the piss), a classic five eighth, a glory hunter.

    Love the bench, fantastic mix of enthusiasm and aggression

    Origin Fantasy is nearly ready to go. Ive been building out the back end so we can keep a history of these comps and make it more automated. Should also allow us to easily run it for internationals (if there are full stats?) and the ladies comp

    I have a few other ideas around using the login system to tie things into your actual fantasy side (ways to track things that the fantasy system doesnt)... as well as getting alerts (via a mobile app) for players you own (or have starred) if there is a late change to final 17s/etc, but we will see how that goes (i dont know how to build an app yet)

    Matt Eisenhuth and Robert Jennings signed by the Panthers (both having formerly played at Penrith).

    Looking forward to the November 1st Shenanigans.

    Makes Twal more attractive without Eisenhuth there. Wonder if he gets Tamou's spot

    I’m honoured to be in the 17.

    Aside from that love the team and reasons behind selections.....

    Origin fantasy should be fun as well I guess I’ll have to play as I’m addicted to this game.

    On another note more good signings for Penrith today signing Robert Jennings and Eisenhuth, they will add great depth to the Panthers.
