Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3045992, member: 1899"] I would have preferred Welch over Glasby, but I understand the rationale. Both players are very sound technically through the middle, but Glasby is less of an unknown and has experience in these big games. Welch's two big games so far have ended in abject disappointment. Welch and Glasby would have been too similar, need a metre eater and as long as he plays exactly like Ofahengaue did, Wallace will be fine. He's more than capable of filling that role and outside of the one game where Kev stuffed the rotation, he's been solid if not good for Queensland. I still don't think this Queensland side is good enough to guarantee victory, but they're looking far more likely than I ever would have imagined before the series started. It really comes down to the spine and whether they can improve on their effort in Game I. I'm convinced Freddy picked some of those players just so he could have them maligned. They still have enough game winners in Tedesco, Turbo, Addo-Carr, Cook etc. to win, but I'm struggling to see a clear selection policy in place. Last year, Freddy changed the mentality of the squad and had them playing a more positive brand of footy. This year there seems to be a lot of second guessing going on and they're going back to the selfish players who let them down to begin with. The teams are close enough that Freddy might get away with it, but I think he's made it a lot harder than necessary. [/QUOTE]
