What are the key issues surrounding NSW's Origin selections?
Welcome to Keddie Blitch, your daily hit of NRL news.
Why do NSW selections seem illogical according to Darius Boyd?
Mate, the storylines of the state of origin's there for us, isn't it? It's Billy does no wrong, Laurie does no right.
Oh, well, off we go again, don't we? Darius Boyd's come out today and questioned what's happened there.
How does Cameron Murray's energy impact the Blues' performance?
I think it's... We're just in that dead part of the whole build-up to the series where people are looking for things to talk about. So we're just continuing to sort of peer through the entrails of selections, aren't we? And everyone has their opinion there.
What confusion exists regarding the Blues' bench selections?
I thought Darius did have some valid opinions, though, today.
I think... Well, you've got a lot of people now jumping to Laurie's defence, don't you, from New South Wales trying to make out that this is all a media beat up.
How does Laurie Daley's playing legacy affect his coaching?
People have got to show him more respect. You know, he's inclined for the job. But from where I looked at Darius and his comments, it's not just coming from a Queensland great. It's coming from someone that's calling a spade a spade.
Yes, you're right. It's concern. Look, the thing about...
What are the implications of the Socceroos match-fixing claims?
the New South Wales selections, which is essentially Laurie. But there's a few around him that have probably escaped a little bit of criticism that he bounces things off. But the thing about the criticisms, it's all about the New South Wales selections, which don't follow logic. And that's the issue. And so I think everybody's still trying to find their sense in it all. And the criticism, it's been fascinating. Like I said the other day, the – The Blues, many of the old former Blues greats have come out and we've got to get behind Laurie and this and don't listen to the criticism and let's just all get behind Laurie and all the rest of it. half of them have been the guys behind the scenes saying, hey, what's he thinking?
And they've been questioning the team. And for those who don't know, Darius has come out today and I'll just read you his quotes, which he said this morning. He said, the issue for New South Wales, and bear in mind, I know he's a Queenslander, the issue for New South Wales was the first 20 minutes in game one and the second half in game two, Normally, that means you haven't laid enough of a platform through the middle. To not change any of the middles and start changing wingers and centers around, it's not what I would have expected. I reckon he's probably encapsulated what everyone else is trying to say in two sentences, in that New South Wales, they got flogged in that first period of Game 1. They came back.
We know how it all ended. We know what happened there. And let's remember, 36 second-half points in Game 2 when they had the series there to be won. The series there to be won. And they went out and conceded 36 points. Now, that doesn't just point to a bad performance. That points to other – factors that have gone wrong, things that you have been unable to control and you've been unable to repel Queensland because you didn't have things in place to be able to put that in, to be able to fight back when things started to go wrong. And that comes down to selections. That's not a lack of effort. That's not a lack of will to win or passion for New South Wales. I know very interesting this week, a lot of the Blues players have come out
and said, you know, it's not on Laurie, it's on us. Well, you know what? Start playing like it.
They had an opportunity in game two to do that, didn't they? Mitchell Moses came out afterwards and said, you know.
Liam Martin said that.
Yeah.
Look, he wasn't there in game two. I know that. But the fact is – Don't just give us lip service. And for too long, New South Wales, don't put it on the coach, it's on us. Well, go out and show us. Go out and show what you're going to do. Get stuck into them a little bit. Do what you need to do to win the game. That's the Queensland mentality. They'll do what they need to do. If it means bending the rules, if it means crossing the line, they'll do that.
It's like you go back to what you were saying earlier, though, too, with Billy – He's made a couple more changes with Carrigan and Nenoy now.
