I like this option. NAS has a big impact when he comes off the bench and Welch can give us a good steady start to the game.

Welch has had a great start to the year. He may be a sneaky origin chance.

I agree- and g'dday everyone. I finally found my way to the new site !

We could get our usual significant loss of players at Origin time. Munster , Chambers ( though he is no certainty ) JAC, Felise. Maybe Finucane and Welch. Scott ? At least we keep Cam Smith and the Kiwis !

Vete and JAC drop out of the squad. JAC for personal reasons.

Paps to debut on the wing. Best of luck to him, hopefully he has a blinder.

Interesting that he was selected over Earl, Olam and Blair.

I wonder if he'll play or if Seve will start and someone else comes onto the bench?

Slater presented him with a Storm jersey at training and he was in tears. If he doesn’t actually get a run after that it would be a bit rough :lol:

Keen to see Paps play. Given his talent it's good to see him ahead of the older fringe guys.

Scott was mentioned to have some sort of shoulder injury the other day. Wonder if he'll be good to go? If not Seve is already in the squad.

Curtis Scott and Brodie Croft making Kerrod Holland look like a superstar.

The refs aren't helping, Will Hopoate didn't play at kick from Chambers, yeah right.

It was ugly but sometimes it is good to win ugly.
