Slater would risk everything to win an egg and spoon race at his daughters sports carnival he's so competitive I reckon.
Very true lol

Highly unlikely Chambers will play again this year. If Billy doesn't play Origin, he could be a chance to play the Raiders but then again, who knows?

Just look at guys like Gallen and Willie Mason.

Gallen rested himself for Origin 1&2. Mason used to do it all the time, injured for dogs and play a blinder for Blues. Hayne does it to a degree too, he holds himself back at club level and then fires for NSW.

Slater would risk everything to win an egg and spoon race at his daughters sports carnival he's so competitive I reckon.

Mason is an idiot and Gallen calls SoO his grand final

I think Qlders are batshit crazy about origin to a point where
they'd rather win SoO than a premiership,which is probably the
only reason they think "We just dont get it"

Will is much greater to our success than Billy is IMO. We all know what Slater can do but Will has been so solid since coming back and has been dependable as all hell! Billy does the unexpected and freakish, Will does what is expected of him and it gets results. If I was picking my team of the year him and Josh Morris would be by centers.

Ashley Harrison was QLDs worst player in both games so far, so losing him to an injury is a blessing in disguise. If Slater misses and Inglis and Bowen plays, that will also be of greater benefit to them than an underdone Slater. QLD easily.

He is a bit. Not anywhere as good as he thinks he is.

finally qld have some injury issues going into an origin game! welcome to NSWs world!

surely slater wont play! qld fans want him to play, obviously its helps qld out and then if he gets hurt it only hurts melbourne and not their precious broncos. win win for them.

Absolutely,they don't care if Billy reinjures that knee and is out for the season,and that is what is at risk here !!

If this is the case he might run round and around in circles.

I'm glad Bill pulled out of origin, better to get himself 100% right before he plays even if he misses the Raiders game, just get yourself right Bill.
