I love how NSW have so many talented options to choose from for origin. This oversaturation often leads to squabbles and infighting over choosing the right squad, such as this. Gus was right, with Turbo undergoing surgery, but I hope NSW selectors go Gallen's way 😅

Surely Campbell Graham on the wing, he's been one of the best outside backs of the season

Love the flare BTW guss n Paul.. great commentators...greetings from PNG

I loved this video because of the respect from Gallen after Gus was bewildered about playing a big Tom on winger. Btw I concur by Gus . But the respect from Gallen was class

“u people are on drugs” 😂😂🤣🤣🤣

This is actually hard to decide 💙

Campbell Graham on the wing with turbo in the centre and latrell Mitchell on the opposite centre with suaalii on the wing.. wouldn't mind Jack wighton at 5/8 with cleary as half back and obviously teddy fullback

Gus is pulling gal's strings 😊

Turbo on the wing makes heaps of sense. He could just rove around and come off the shoulders of whoever makes a break. He would be a more than adequate finnisher of trys also.

Just put Gal on the wing 🤣🤣😭💔

As QLD fan - either way I'm terrified 😅

I'm 100% for Jack Wighton in the starting side. Blokes built for origin and always stands up.

Edwards must be included in the lineup he is a absolute must

From a QLD supporter I am glad people aren't mentioning Suali'i.

Graham deserves a spot

Gus is honestly and honest analyst. Tupou is a good choice winger

Teddy Fullback. Suuali in the wing. Latrell and Burton centre pairing (if Turbo is out). Nicho starting five-wight with Cleary. Wighton utility role. Solid enough for game 1 already. 😊

turbo on the wing :') As a winger you need to be a finisher in the corner. Turbo for me wouldn't be anywhere near good enough for that. He'd dive for the corner once and shatter his body

Their telling the Blues most successful coach in origin history that he's wrong, while they still haven't coached an origin team themselves lol. Everyone knows more than Gus, even though they haven't done a FRACTION of what he's done in the game LOL.

My Current NSW Origin Team 1. Tedesco c 2. To'o 3. Mitchell 4. T Trbojevic 5. Graham 6. Hynes 7. Cleary 8. Paulo 9. Cook 10. J Trbojevic 11. Frizell 12. Murray 13. Yeo 14. Koroisau 15. Campbell-Gillard 16. Martin 17. Haas 18. Wighton

Get Campbell Graham in there!

1: James Tedesco ( by far ) 2: Campbell Graham 3: Tom trobejevic 4: Latrell Mitchell 4: Brian to’o 6: nicho Hynes 7: Nathan Cleary ( even know I think he’s highly overrated they will pick him . 8: Payne haas 9: Damien cook 10: Reagan Campbell Gillard 11: cam Murray 12: Liam Martin 13: Isaah yeo 14: Keaon Koloamatang 15 : Jack wighton 16 : Jake trobejevic 17: hemole olakuatu

Jack wighton is nowhere near a neccesity for the blues in the starting lineup or the bench. Turbo and latrell if fit are out centres and even if they arent, campbell graham deserves the spot so much more than wighton.

I love Gus's brutality

With all that talent, NSW still look uncertain what team to pick to beat QLD.

Assuming no more injuries occur, I’d probably have either Suaali’i or Tupou on the left wing, with To’o on the right. Latrell at left centre with Trbojevic on the right. Tedesco should obviously be fullback, and have Wighton be the 17

Gus was funny

Agree with Gus

Graham centa, trbo wing, Latrell centa and wighton bench

Love Gals left field comments

Nicho is 5/8 what you boys talking about.

I just can't justify giving Teddy the fullback spot this year.

turbo on the wing and graham at centre

Sualli, Cambell graham or topou for that wing for game 1, latrell and turbo for centres, too the other wing, wighton as a 14, worked in 2021,

Blues' selection policy is littered with politics and Freddy's favouritism. The Maroons, well, Slater was a first time coach who pulled a Bennett on Freddy.

Gallen had too many hits in the head in his boxing career

It's a simple fix. Just put Suaalii on the wing. Also I'll be putting Nicho at the bench.

I go with Gus.

You know Gus was listening to the first part of that conversation.

1. Tedesco 2. Sua'alii 3. Latrell 4. Turbo (or Wighton/Graham depending on injury) 5. To'o 6. Burton 7. Cleary 8. Paulo 9. Cook 10. RCG 11. Koloamatangi 12. Martin 13. Murray 14. Hynes 15. Yeo 16. Jake T 17. Talakai There you go boys, argument over 😊

Lol Gus saying you people are on drugs but he wants to play 2 halves on the bench n use 1 as a back rower.

I agree Campbell graham is playing well ,problem is he doesn't pass much to his winger Thompson gets very redundant on wing for Souths, so yes put him on the wing,

1. tedesco 2.graham 3.trbojevic 4.mitchell 5.suaalli 6.hynes 7.cleary 8.haas 9.cook. 10.trbojevic 11.frizell 12.murray 13.yeo 14.korosau 15.the manly tongan backrower 16.finucane 17.wighton

Might aswel grab SBW while you’re at it😂😂

While it would be good for Tupou to get picked, I just don’t think he’s good for how fast the game can get. The DCE kick moment forced him into the mistake because he must’ve been tired. So I wouldn’t pick Tupou. But then Gus can come up with any counter-argument possible.

Gal has had too many punches to the head!

I want Wighton in the team as much as anyone but come on now, pushing Turbo to the wing when he's been the best player in the last few series at centre is not the way to do it. You have to look for a winger to replace Addo-Carr - Tupou is in the conversation but there are others like Kiraz who are making some noise. The real answer is probably putting Nicho in at 6 and, if you are absolutely desperate to include him, having Wighton on the bench. Personally, I'd rather see Burton on the bench as you then have an elite centre and five-eighth as cover (with the ability to shift Nicho to 7, so you have Cleary covered too).

I agree with Gus

Wighton off the bench as a fwd. He rip heads that guy

Agree with Gus, 1. Teddy 2. Tupou 3. Mitchell/Graham 4. Graham/Mitchell 5. To'o 6. Wighton 7. Clearly 8. Haas 9. Korosiau would play better than Cook around decent forwards, Cook had his chance and goes missing way to much 10. Trbojevic 11. Kolomatangi 12. Murray 13. Yeo 14. Hynes 15. Paulo 16. Martin 17. J Saifiti

It will be Sua'alii on the wing, I'd be surprised if Turbo was even fit

The problem NSW has they have so many players to choose from so they always think they need to pick different players all the time where as QLD kept the same team almost all the time in their dominence

Turbo is wing for me, Fullback if I drop Tedesco, at full strength, it's this 1. James Tedesco 2. Tom Trbojevic 3. Latrell Mitchell 4. Jack Wighton 5. Josh Addo-Carr 6. Jarome Luai 7. Nathan Cleary 8. Reagan Campbell-Gillard 9. Damien Cook 10. Payne Haas 11. Shaun Lane 12. Cam Murray 13. Issah Yeo 14. Nicho Hynes 15. Dale Finucane 16. Jake Trbojevic 17. Jordan McLean

Suaalii on the wing . Doesn't matter where he's going in 2 years . We want New South Wales to Win .

Gus is the only sober one there

I reckon Campbell Graham on the wing. That's only if Addo Carr is unfit to play though. Nothing against Tupou, but I don't see what anyone sees in him that is better than either AC, Graham or Sualii.

1. Tedesco 2. Brian To'o 3. Lattrell Mitchell 4. Turbo 5. Jacob Kiraz 6. Nicho Hynes 7. Nathan Cleary Bench: Katoni Staggs

Tupou shouldn’t even be in contention on form

Phils right...wingers a winger and centre is a centre

Turbo on the wing is a strange choice

Gus sits on these panels and always gives off vibes like he'd rather rip his nails out with pliers than be here. Is he contractually obligated to do these shows? What am I missing here.

Gus is so blind, look at Turbo play, he never wants to run the ball hard into defence he just folds. He doesn't want to take hits. I'd choose Wighton over Turbo any day and Wighton was amazing last year.

Im a Queenslander. Id bet that Wighton, Addo-Carr, Hynes have more PASSION and LOVE for the blues than Luai, Topou, Talakai No offense to them, i know they put in 100% effort, but its different when it comes from your whole heart…

Turbo on the wing might be a good gamble, with Wighton in center. Don't like Tupou there anymore. Have Turbo or Suaalii on the wing with To'o.

Member when qld had 6 fullbacks 1.slater 2.boyd 3.inglis 4.hodges 5.folau 6.lockyer

Fun fact: since Daniel tupou has been in and out of the blues team, every time he’s in the squad, blues lose the series

Campbell Graham.

1 teddy 2 to'o 3 latrell 4 Graham 5 turbo 6 hynes 7 cleary 8 paulo 9 cook 10 haas 11 olakau'atu 12 Murray 13 yeo 14 wighton 15 j safiti 16 RCG 17 koroisau

And then Papenhuyzen comes back from injury on absolute fire what do you do. How can you leave that talent out?

Jacks retired 😢😢😢

Wighton at 5/8. Luai at bench or reserve.

Turbo on the wing????? Gal has lost his marbles If Turbo doesn't get his body right he won't be there at all and shouldn't be if he's not absolutely on fire.

Turbo and latrell centres and thays from a qld supporter

Turbo hasn’t won A comp

Anyone think dom young will be considered?

Garrick is the best winger in the competition

Let Gallen pick the squad.😅😅😅😅😅

Wighton levels up for origin, plus he’s a gun when he wants to be. U tell me who else in the origin has won a dally m and Clive Churchill. put him anywhere in the team and he has a Hugh chance of being man of the match.

This is what happens with no loyalty and plenty of options, nobody knows what to do. This is why QLD win and win often. Loyalty.

U need speed ffs Jason Saab Big tall and the Usain Bolt of league

People like Gus is the reason NSW are losing when we are clearly the better team. CHOOSE TOUGH ORIGIN PLAYERS, Wighton is made for state of origins just put the lad on the field… Turbo put anywhere don’t care just want him on the field. If they go the Tupou experiment again this year, I will not be supporting NSW! This is coming from a roosters fan

Doesn't mean who you pick Queensland is going to win again

Imagine putting one of the best ball playing full backs on the wing. 😂 What a daft selection.

Sualli shouldn’t be picked. Stick with Tupou or Blood someone else. Luai out, he’s a passenger, give Hynes a run. Turbo out he’s a crock, give that Souths centre a run.

Common Gus w

Hynes has to start doesnt he??

Gal is way off here. Wighton needs to be the 6 or just not there at all.. why put Turbo on the wing?? Wasted talent.. Wighton was rubbish at Centre in Origin

If NSW actually picked their best players, QLD would never win Origin again...

Why are you guys selecting players for origin this early in the comp? Lol.

Blaaaaa Gus,I rekon real reckless by Marty Tapow in knee to Jordan head,question all certainty on accident, careless

Tupou cost us that game in Sydney last year. He is nowhere near as good as the Fox, not even close. If the Fox is available, you pick him 1st up. It is that simple. With Wighton now retired from rep footy he is out. Find your best 5 available and make a spot for them. NSW has an embarrassment of riches in the backs. Who cares if a FB plays wing or a centre plays FB etc. They are all capable players and they would have to play 'out of position' anyway to cover an injury in-game. Teddy, To'o, Latrell, Turbo, Fox should be the first choice backline with Edwards as first man up should one not be available.

Wakeham is the starting blues 7

Turbo on the Wing is laughable

You could run Jesus Christ and Queensland are still going to belt ya 🍌

Teddy To’o Turbo Mitchell JAC Id choose Sualii over To’o but this is the winning backline

looking at gallens origin carrer, we shouldnt listen to most of his opinions

Gus is the only sane one

Gal is cooked

No matter who you pick, QLD will win.

Wighton can play back row but turbo can’t play on the wing. WE NEED A WINGER TO PLAY WING BUT GUS WILL HAVE A 5/8 PLAYING BACK ROW. The hypocrisy is laughable.
