Listen Benny Maguire is just opening his mouth to look good and hopefully secure his job a little bit longer.Lets not forget he wasn’t much of a coach in the past .Or he would be still coaching a league team.
You can see where block & Benny's loyalty lies, gold & black forever, but there wrong. Watson is a perfect 14, something NSW hasn't had since wingy, appy is a hooker that's it, with Watson at 14 you can now carry 3 forwards on the bench. It's a good/ smart move
Api can also play in the halves. One thing I have noticed with Maguire's selections is that he has been very reluctant to pick anyone from his old coached at clubs Souths and the Tigers. If Sua'ali'i hadn't been sent and suspended (and the first game had gone differently), I have to wonder even in the form he's in if Mitchell would have been picked?? There is no one else in the backline who needs replacing now that Edwards is back, and Latrell would be wasted on the bench so where would he have even fitted in?? While IMO Murray should have been there from the start in front of McInnes and yet its only now that NSW are in a must win situation where Madge has picked him.
@Holden308 But he can't cover any of the outside backs where Watson can. You have to remember who was fit and playing, and in form when the 1st side was picked, and both Murray and Mitchell were not, for either of those reasons, Hynes was the last half still hobbling around. Both the Bunnies and the W/Tigers form was shit as well. I would have had Yeo starting and Mcgines on the bench and Burton there instead of Young, IMO.
You can sack Freddy Laurie Madge and bring in the next coach, we don’t quite get the QUEENSLANDER mentality and until we do we will keep throwing coaches at the team. Maybe look outside the box and instead of physicality driven strategies we need a mental one up .
Brilliant, they dont make em like that anymore. I'm a QLD'er and just loved how Blocky and Benny played the game.

I’m a rooster and he’s my favourite player.
I like Connor as a player (He’ll he’s an x knights player) but the ONLY reason he’s picked this time is he’s a chooks player
So?
It wouldn't be because he's the best and most in form utility in NSW or anything. Nah must be cause he's a chooks player

It is difficult to play against 14 players
Hang in there mate. NSW with Madge has not lost yet? Maybe you can post your suggestion after NSW loose
Where's the return for the taxpayer?
No idea how the Tigers will manage to get out of their hole with these two constantly getting a microphone. They are so toxic towards the club.
Tigers win one game and they bring the legends out to brag. Pretty sad
Go home Benny
