Message: [QUOTE="uptheguts, post: 2841437, member: 8474"] Well things fell nicely into place for the Blues and the game just went the way most of the experts said it would. The Blues were always the better team on paper and they played that way. They were at least a 20 point better side. But this series is far from over. In the long run it was better that we lost this game by 24 points rather than 6 or 10. Now , hopefully , the selectors can pick the very best Qld team on form and form alone. Slater must come back. Oneil must go. JT will be back. Milf needs another two years NRL before origin recall. Myles , Lillyman out. Hess and Wallace or Sims in. Munster in somehow. Not sure if Mcguire is really up to it. Just not big enough or fast enough IMO and has not got an off load in him. Can’t see him being dropped though. I did not like his cheap shot on Fifita. Also a question mark on Gillet ATM. I suspect he is playing injured. Sam Thaiday had little impact and I think his best is behind him. The most disappointing aspects of this game was the lack in urgency and desperation in preventing Fifita from offloading and also the pedestrian efforts directing play from Smith and Cronk. It did look a bit like they were going through the motions. I think they really wanted Billy there so much and could not quite get over his non selection . We can definitely win the second game , but changes are needed . This will be a big test for Kevie Walters and the other selectors. [/QUOTE]
