Game State of Origin - game one discussion thread

I have to say it's a bit more exciting now that two current Bulldogs and a future Bulldog will line up.

There's a lot of talk about Latrell being out, and rightfully so, but Crichton was a Dally M winner at left centre and his defence has gone up a gear this year.. apparently he's put a bit of size on so he'll be one to watch.

At the end of the day, the biggest threat for NSW is Tommy. His last start for Manly is very good signs and if he turns it on for the Blues I believe we win and win well. Otherwise it will come down to the forward battle.

Well, that was a disaster! At least we drop Tevita's salary

Apparently Turbo was "taught to run again" in the US.. I'd be suing the guy! Tom looks awful.

Teddy is the ultimate ball hog who stifled NSW's attack all game.

Cleary might be too much of a perfectionist for Origin, he needs to take more risks.

To'o and Fox need to play on their club wing sides.

Dylan Edwards must come in for Teddy.
