Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3408528, member: 1899"] Teams have been updated. What I find interesting is that teams are struggling to announce a squad of 24. I would have thought with Origin we'd see extended squads of 26 if anything. For me it does highlight the depth issue in the game at the moment and we're really seeing what the lack of Flegg/NSW Cup is having on the game. Sydney/Melbourne and Brisbane/Canberra for mine shape as the most important games of the round. I thought the Cronulla game was a turning point for the Roosters but their depth was found out against the Raiders. If they can get as much of their Origin contingent back as possible, they really ought to beat the Storm here and make a statement. Melbourne themselves have really struggled since losing Papenhuyzen and have had their own share of issues. They were able to sneak past a deflated Manly outfit, I'm curious to see if they can go one better against the Roosters. I'm curious to see how the Raiders turn up against the Broncos. They've had the wood on the Broncos of late, having not lost to them since 2018 and even then that game required Brisbane to make a dramatic comeback. They had a good win on the weekend, but it's one thing to play well in Canberra, another to do it on the road and if they can't win here it'll deal a big blow to their finals chances. [/QUOTE]
