I wonder how long Des would run with Mbye at hooker?
Hopefully the rest of the season if I bring Frawley in.
Still torn on getting CHN also. He's one you gotta take a punt on right?

Saying here possibly Frawley to halves, Mbye to Hooker and Lichaa out??
Wacko’s Whisper: Blake Leary is tipped to come onto the bench for Kalyn Ponga. Ponga will only play if Lachlan Coote is ruled out with a calf injury.
Wacko’s Whisper: Bodene Thompson is in doubt and Bunty Afoa is on standby.
I guess they basing the BT stuff on the fact that him SJ and one other did limited training but I'll trust my source every day off the week over Wacko on the Warriors

I think so bro, i dont have the kid yet but im thinking of doing something crazy like trading mannering to him. And yes this is me who was going to trade gallen to hess pre-his 81 score.
With all the cows just about ready to trot into the abattoir and guns looking very lean, its looking like setting the team early is more acheivable than ive ever witnessed. Its a great year for fantasy.

And thats just from memory
It's State of ORIGIN, not State of BIRTH. It's supposed to be where they started playing/learnt how to play rugby league.
Country of birth doesn't dictate which country you play for. There have been guys who play for New Zealand (and other countries) who are really Australians, e.g. Nightingale, Chase Stanley (off the top of my head).

TLDR: farah unlikely, cherrington looking unlikely, some bloke called cameron murray may be included from tweets by someone called muzzled mole
Cam Murray is good young prospect but I am hearing he is not in the 17, make of that what ya will.

The difference is the quality Des had at Manly compared to the Dogs. He had a couple of seasons with DCE and Foran right? The halves pairing of Mbye and JRey isn't working so why not try something new?

Thinking of no trades this week 111k itb and Lamb>Milf next week. I am interested in the potential of Brailey>Cook this week as a triangle trade or could be good Origin cover but could blow up in face. Frawley if named also interesting as I want to move Guth back to WFB but would have to sell Talakai or Suli and feel they have money to make still and the Suli/Cotric 1 in each DPP spot is useful

Was going to go Hess or BT to CHN, but probably gonna go more conservative like Yates or Winterstein. Mannering to him is a ballsy move, but considering Mannerings scores, the bank you'd get is so helpful.

I always thought origin did mean where you were born. Not trying to be a smart arse and i get what you mean about where they first played footy and qualifying.
So even though inglis was born south of the border and went to school in NSW, by the rules he still qualifies for Maroons. They all 'qualify' so there's nothing to worry about.

Checked the scored and wow 51 points. 234 metres gained, I didn't realise they gave out points for running onto the field.
Was so close to bringing in Friend yesterday too.
I must of been kissed on the dick by a fairy last night, shame I couldn't feel or remember it.
EDIT: that fairy is of the female type.
How do you know the gender of the fairy if you were unconscious and you don't remember it?

Well Greg Inglis started playing footy for the Bowraville Tigers. That's not in QLD because I used to race there in primary school for district cross-country.

Absolutely! Its cringe stuff watching that pairing sometimes, two good players that are having trouble clicking. You'd think they've had long enough
