This ‘understanding origin’ nonsense is just ridiculous. Queensland had arguably 5 of the best players ever during the dynasty. A 2 year old could’ve coached and they would’ve still won.
Yep the New South Wales team could the team to beat Queensland 10-6 on the bell. I’ve never thought that before. Usually I think if they win it’ll be a good win but if Queensland is close they’ll win in the end.
Any blues supporter who understands rugby league, does not hate it. Blues selectors have got it wrong since Laurie Daley took over. During the 8 year dynasty, the selections were good, QLD was just too good.
The two biggest issues for NSW is just how much better the QLD spine is and it doesn't solve NSW's issue of scoring more points when it matters. Last year, they had no trouble making metres, they had trouble with creativity and a player like Edwards lacks creativity. Walsh, Dearden, DCE, Hunt and Grant are so much more dynamic than what NSW has
@@joedont9307 He is getting old, cut him some slack. I remember 4 origin wins in 5 years when he was coaching the blues. One was 3-0 with Freddy as captain.
As a Queenslander, can say he predicts some stuff right and normally owns up for his mistakes. Back in the day he was a biased commentator, definitely changed it up which is good
Watched the SOO with a person who only watches this and the GF. HE genuinely thought that Phil Gould was a bias Queenslander and was shocked to hear he is an ex NSW coach.
Hopefully QUUENSLAND WILL win the 2024 series! we also have a very strong squad and united! Qlders we are always united with less players to choose from! chopping and changing too many players is not the solution, the solution is who is hungrier and more united that play together as a team effort!
I reckon if nsw win the front row will be the man of the match. Either Jake puts on a legendary performance or Payne haas stars like we all know he can.
@@bennyalex8918 If you're talking about about Australia's failure in the Paciifc Championships, then Tedesco was just as much of a failure if not more so. Unlike Edwards, Teddy was playing in his preferred position. He was also the captain. He's also only won 3 of the 8 Origin series he's played in. Time for Edwards to have a crack.
With David Fifita you wouldn't know it it was one of his on or off days. With James Tedesco you would know that he would try to break the line too often and be too predictable, and with Latrell Mitchell you would know you're going to get trouble.
Origin isnt just about skill and ability, its about the grit and dog within a player. Good team picked, feel for Teddy though he has always done the state proud, but Edwards is deserving
@@crazyprayingmantis5596 Api is great in attack, but he plays less minutes, makes less tackles and had more miss tackles then Robson. That why his wasn't pick
On paper I’m a big fan of this NSW team considering that Cleary, Murray, T Trbojevic, Staggs, Papenhuyzen, Moses, Gutherson, D Saifiti to name a few are all out injured. Also, Gus is absolutely correct with his notion of thinking like a Queensland Origin team will vastly increase your chances of success of winning State of Origin. In Maguire, We Trust.
@@Giveme1goodreason he's a modern gilmiester. hate to say but nsw going to run thru these cane toads, and madge will pressure reece all night and he'll cause endless amount of errors.
No one can copy Queensland! no one! thats why Queensland is what it is! New South Wales needs to have their own identity. CMON you QUEENSLAND! I LOVE YOU! cmon you QUEENSLANDERS! this is my state this is my home!
I love ya Gal but Gus is 100% right on this one. NSW has always relied on players with a good reputation from the past or players who are highly praised and are the faces of the game. NSW has never picked players based on current form, something which QLD has done for many years now, people looked at QLD’s team on paper and laughed when they compared them to the NSW squad in regard to talent, and looked what happened when they got called the “worst QLD team of all time and the previous two years. Freddy was never a coach, he is a media personality or “one of the boys” as they say that is mates with all the players and was loyal to certain players regardless of their current form. Madge is a hard head similar to the likes of Benett and Bellamy who isn’t afraid to make the tough decisions, he is there to win an Origin series not win a popularity contest, and nothing is shocking about this team he picked, every player has been consistent for their team. Teddy is past his prime and is aging, Edwards was only unlucky from missing out the previous two years because Freddy was coach, he is a weapon and a champion player who always puts his body on the line, nothing shocking about picking a player that is part of the most successful modern NRL team, this team is looking toward the future not relying on past players.
Facts!! Gal talking like he knows what its like to win a few series. Gus actually did it more times than most. Wouldnt listen to a word out of Gals mouth. Coming from a Queenslander!

Last year they had no trouble making metres, they had trouble with creativity and a player like Edwards lacks creativity.

@carokann4397 It does matter because of how the rest of the team is built... Someone can be a good player but a poor fit, and that is what Edwards is in that team (Teddy also is). Based on their team composition, they need someone at the back with creativity. Someone like Drinkwater has 14 try assists to Edwards 8 and 17 linebreak assists to Edwards 7. He does that in a team with a half who is also top 5 in those numbers (townsend) and a five eight who was just chosen for origin. Edwards is a better defender and better for metres, but metres are enough where NSW have struggled.
@zaneplatt3533 I trust madge more than you. Kiwis beat Australia 32 zip last year thanks to madge. There was no creativity in that team, just power and effort players.
Without Cleary and Murray on the park to lead them, picking creative players will get NSW destroyed. Smarter to get defensive minded players to grind it out.
Did anyone notice when they put the NSW Team up on the screen they had B.Slater as the Coach :-) Obviously a footy fan working for Nine behind the scenes.
Very very true.. Paul hits it on the bull's eye. That's how you NSW say thankyou to your old stars. My goodness no matter what he was and is part of NSW till he himself retires. So you tell who's going to be your next Australian captain. What a shame for a State
Gus is a very wise man..a wise New South Welshman..Gal talks alot & just makes noise..whatever insights or predictions he gives is just so shallow..what Gus said about studying to the Queenslanders, is so true..but their ego and arrogance just keeps blinding them.
There are not really too many shock selections, IMO. He said he would pick form players, and he has. As a roosters supporter, I'm glad teddy's is able to play with us through the origin period. I would have Yeo starting , and Burton, my 14 to cover any backs that go down. Up the Blues
This is the team. I reckon barney or olakauatu instead of liam martin. Nico hynes deserves that spot. Its about time dylan edwards gets the nod. Teddys had heaps of chances and is a hit and miss. Edawards always plays consistent
Maroon standards they copying us these blues Billy been giving free tips every week lol this blues team is the best one I’ve seen in awhile be a good game 👌🏽
Paul Gallen, "lets learn nothing from QLD, lets not learn from the best" lets just keep doing what NSW do best. Lose origin matches. He mocks the most successful NSW coach ever.
Cam Munster was key to QLD retaining the shield and I feel a gap between him and Deardon is larger than Hynes/Cleary. I think Hynes/Cleary is the more interesting question.
@@Chem1090Student Cleary has won a number of origin series including the biggest massacre of all time in 2021(76-6 in two games). He's won three grand finals and the last world cup. Hynes can't win finals games and regularly wilts under the slightest pressure, as recently as last Saturday night. The gap between Clerary and Hynes is bigger than the gap between you and Wally Lewis. Just say you hate Cleary because you support another club and stop wasting everyone's time.
It's actually just an interesting question over a hypothetical "if" Hynes dominated. I believe it to be an interesting question around two good players, rather than directed hate at Cleary. I wasn't aware a simple question would trigger you so much.
To defeat your enemy you have to think like your enemy. Gus is 💯 percent correct
Or just flat out copy useless blues ain’t gonna work but
Absolutely… it’s moneyball…stat driven match ups.
and it ownt mean a thing. Another Origin win for QLD

The gap between Clerary and Hynes is bigger than the gap between you and Wally Lewis. Just say you hate Cleary because you support another club and stop wasting everyone's time.
It's actually just an interesting question over a hypothetical "if" Hynes dominated. I believe it to be an interesting question around two good players, rather than directed hate at Cleary. I wasn't aware a simple question would trigger you so much.
