Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3522528, member: 1899"] We'll see how accurate that list is, but Latrell would be a timely inclusion. He's a genuine option close to the line and the type of player who can just take the game away from the Maroons if he's used right. Nicho has been hard done by, but I think they made the right call between him and Moses. It would have been a huge departure to play the type of footy that suits Hynes' style. Moses can slot in more readily and would know how to play off the back of others. Besides, I don't think it was necessarily Hynes vs. Moses as much as it was Hynes vs. Luai. Once they settled on the Luai/Cleary combination for Game I, it was always going to be difficult to break-up and this is a big game in Jarome's career. If he steps up here, he'll silence a lot of the critics. He certainly has the talent to do just that. The same can be said of Hudson Young. In an ideal situation, Freddy would have just been able to call in Angus Crichton, but with the Roosters playing so poorly, he'd either have to start Martin or Murray who are touch and go or bring in an unproven rookie. I expect that with the jitters out of his system, Young will be better and won't gift Queensland as many opportunities as he did on debut. If it doesn't happen, at least you can blood a player at home. I think you can get away with blooding players off the bench in this type of game, so I'm not overly critical of the Utoikamanu pick. He was in camp for Game I, so he knows what to expect and he's that bigger body forward Freddy loves. Still plenty of talent there to pull off the upset. It would make for an interesting head-ache if they did get the job done without Cleary, especially since Nathan could be right come Game III. [/QUOTE]
