    Freddy has already said in a tongue and cheek way that he will select "Heaps" of Panthers.

    In reality, the Panthers are so dominant at the moment it's hard to imagine them not having a presence.
    It would be pretty weird if they only managed to get Cleary or Cleary & Luai in. I suspect maybe as many as 4 or 5 players.

    Just thinking about the Panthers team, previous roles in NSW squad and media bites;

    CERTAINTY: Cleary

    INCUMBENT: Yeo

    2020 SERIES SQUAD: Luai, Crichton

    2021 POTENTIAL INS: To'o, Burton, Martin

    Lucky for Queensland their biggest strike weapon is Fijian and their best forward's a Kiwi...

    I am confused by this comment. QLD beat this spine last year as the 'worst qld side of all time'. Sure Radley wasn't there but he hasn't quite hit form this year either, and Wighton/Cook form could also be questioned.

    I know that most teams have a lot of similar players.

    Playing Minto immortal this week. 18/21 players the same, before trades.

    JFH + Watson + Walsh v Haas + CHN + gamble

    I might trade Ponga out instead of Fifita then. Need Papy to play to have 17.

    I remember the old days when we used to check top teams manually, one by one, to work this kind of stuff out

    Back on Sportal there was an old poster teetotaller who used to do top 100/1000 for the back end of the year after byes. That list was actually responsible for my best ever finish when I had trades to burn in the run home

    I see Turbo playing a similar role to what Hayne used to for NSW. That is, he is first picked among the back 5 but fills whatever the weakest spot is. That's either going to be right centre or right wing

    TPJ is a lot closer than most think, but I believe Yeo, Finucane would be first to come into the pack if there was any injuries

    I want TPJ in Origin. He really fires up coming up against the best like Kikau and Fifita on the edge. Put him in Origin with great players around him and I think he'll be a force.

    Interesting reading that Tevaga article he is quoted saying Walsh too good to be on the bench and needs to be starting forcing Kodi into the no.14 role. Does that mean Walsh gonna start?

    “I think Reece is too good a player not to be playing and we want to start breeding him for next year when Rog goes so we will be looking to get him as much game time as we can,” Tevaga said.

    “That means Kodi will have to slot into No.14, whether he likes it or not, and that will enable me to play more of a middle role.

    “I think Kodi is a good No.14 as much as he hates it, and I think that is what’s best for the team at the moment.”

    The fact he is saying Kodi WILL have to slot into No.14, WHETHER HE LIKES IT OR NOT. Sounds like Walsh will be playing half and Kodi is moving to a bench hooking role. CHT 7 and Walsh 6 by the sounds.

    Breeding is a really poor choice of words in that context
