  • Joe for Origen?

    I can safely say I didn’t see this coming
    suaali being talked about as nsw winger
    hard to compare his form but he has been poor for us at centre and I don’t think will be on the wing for the roosters once smith is back and behind young and toops for wing but will be for nsw wtf?
    he will offer a good hit up option, is tall but still yet to see him dominate in the air, but will get burnt on the outside coming up against Cobbo or Coates

    It’s Origin. Not Origen.

    I’d be surprised if they picked him. To’o, Lomax and others would likely be ahead of him, especially considering he won’t be around next year.

      Hilarious if he gets picked on the wing, and then can’t get a starting spot with us when Billy returns.

      baffled by talk of him making origin, when leaving the game this year.

        The mail I got from a mate of Madge is that he’s def in. But who knows.. also said Walker was 5/8 (can’t stand Luai)
        Take it for what it’s worth.. not much but you never know.

          What’s it with everyone on here thinking he won’t have a spot once Billy Smiths back? & also his forms been great especially the last couple weeks at centre. The kids tough and has class, perfect for origin & should be there

            Would have To’o, JAC, Lomax, toops and even turbo (inj) and even Stephen critchon there before even thinking about suaali
            if walker is there as well that goes madge’s I’ll pick on form guide

              Billy smith is a way better left centre and whose spot does he take next? He was training at fullback with the nsw cup side in pre season until injuries struck and got a spot
              he has been okay the last few weeks but that doesn’t get you an Origen spot! Before this he did f all on attack and was a liability in defence

                I don't rate Smith ahead of Suallii.

                He'll be lucky to play 10 games in a row for the entirety of the rest of his career.
                1985: 1 try vs Parramatta, 1 try vs Manly, 1 try vs Wests, 2 tries vs Souffs
                1986: 2 tries vs Illawarra, 1 try vs Balmain, 2 tries vs Norths.

                  Is this discussion being had because Tiny's out indefinitely?

                    Crichton will be right edge centre, I wouldn’t be looking at him as a winger..

                      I’d have Jo in the roosters team on the wing for sure, but tough to drop Toops for him.

                        Interesting he’s been in talks for origin all season, when for us I would say he’s been slightly underperforming according to his ability. He charges hard but doesn’t seem to have a knack for breaking tackles or making tries out of nothing. Also for a giant with a massive leap he doesn’t seem to be the safest hands in the air (might come with more experience)

                        all though did play well at right centre, think there’s other nsw wingers better than him, toops for example

                          The chooks scored 170 points in the last 4 games and he has scored 1 try for the whole 11 games
                          only made 4 line breaks in 11 games and can’t seem to break tackles
                          I agree he hits hard when he runs and tackles - but his defence is average rushing in and getting caught flat footed

                            Remember last year when smith came back and was the roosters best player on the field Many times
                            while Suaali continually fails to add anything in attack on the left centre and a liability in defence
                            everyone said this about Watson until he came back this year and has been out best player

                              you realised he's in centre filling in for BS/Jenning? his main role is winger
