If Hynes isn’t fit it’s simple really. Play Luai at 7 and Burton at 6. Get reps in the combination in training. How many times will we make the same mistakes over and over again?!?

[@DBASSDAN]

Agreed.

[@user-sg5jf9cp4q]

Just looking for something to write about. The media coverage is just overkill with state of origin.

UP THE BLUES...LOVE THAT LAST PART 💙

[@BarraCartel]

Why do we keep picking injured players? Crazy

Queensland clean sweep

[@MonkehSee]

Is it just me or Luai has moved on from the grubness stitch, seems a lot more mature this year.

[@daleviker5884]

That's how he has been known to Penrith fans for years. The media does like its agendas though.

[@JamesWillis-yy5px]

Did you watch the Sharks Panthers game? His a grub.

[@MonkehSee]

@@JamesWillis-yy5px yeah what was so grub about him in the game? Or you just that sensitive?

[@BenWick-oc8pv]

Based on his last two games it would be better if he failed his fitness test Last year was a disaster but he was thrown to the wolves. Hopefully Hynes will make the most of his second chance

Anthony Albanese wants Nicho to start - and for us all to get more booster shots LMAO

Why pick players that aren't fit? NSW never learn

[@nswblues3146]

Munster wasn’t 100% leading into this origin series. If the latest injury never happened, I’m sure QLD still have picked him

[@khanager2814]

@@nswblues3146 100% right. Unless this guy can give a better choice at 7 given the circumstances with Moses and Cleary also clearly unfit, don't know how you can criticise Hynes' selection.

[@nswblues3146]

@@khanager2814 100% spot on, if QLD win, I’m sure he will start claiming how QLD were the underdogs because we had the better team on paper and not mention Hynes injury.

[@BenWick-oc8pv]

or in form. Hynes last two matches, one was poor and the other terrible

[@nswblues3146]

@@BenWick-oc8pv Reece Walsh wasn’t great in his last game, better not pick him hey. Last big game he played in was the grand final, based on that you should probably play it safe and not pick him by your logic.

[@manmountain3205]

Luai needs to be at 7, Hynes at 6

QUEENSLAND WILL CLEAN SWEEP THIS TEAM

[@OZIPUG1970]

I just hope Nicho can handle the big stage because he's yet to prove himself in semifinals so time will tell.

[@Poida087]

He was the best Sharks player on the field in their loss to the Roosters in the finals last year. His team let him down. Good luck to him!

[@pngtuber6163]

Injured Blues 😭😂

[@jamiegriffiths3939]

he shouldn’t have been picked if he can’t train on the 1st day

[@mattvader2023]

Nsw no passion or heart 😂

[@DoggieStyle-xo6vb]

Why are we sweating? No Hynes there’s still Burton just as good

[@baccycones7644]

😂

[@khanager2814]

Burton is just as good but he's not as good at halfback. He's not a game manager, or at least he hasn't shown it. If Hynes gets rubbed out, 100% Keary is coming in - that's why they have him in the squad. (By the way, I understand the sentiment, Burto is in great form and he's a good player. But he's a 6. Strong ball runner, good situational kicking - bombs, a big boot but not the best kicking game overall - decent playmaker, he'd perfectly slot into anywhere in the halves or centres as a replacement)

[@DBASSDAN]

​@@khanager2814Luai 7 / Burton 6, easy fix

[@SO-om2yy]

​@khanager2814 luai at 7 and Burton 6 would be the option.
