Game 3: QLD vs NSW (2018)
Ponga out, Inglis out, DCE reportedly in
I have tickets but now almost wish I didn’t :frown:
Gee those are two massive blows to QLD. I guess that makes Slater captain. The big four down to one.
And DCE finally gets a call up. But will they just dump Hunt to bench?

DCE in is embarrassing when you consider that he will be booed off by his own home fans. Don't know who's idea it was to select a 29 year old who has failed at rep level countless times, over a half who leads the league for try assists and is a handy goal kicker. But oh well good news for us Titans fans as he will be playing for us against an under strength Donkeys side.
Not sure who's idea it was to chose Arrow at prop when Mcguire IS a prop and Arrow is a lock. Baffles the mind. With you Bundy, what form is DCE showing that Hunt isn't? Not happy by any stretch of the imagination.
If CartWrong ever gets his act together we might have to play Arrow in the Front Row too
Its going to be a bad week for me if the Maroons are smashed by NSW following todays game. There is only so much disappointment I can take......so Qld must win.....pleeeeease.
God. Blues get a player binned and they bloody score twice.
Those first half stats for QLD were amazing, only more shocking to see the Maroons behind on the scoreboard.
DCE completely owned that 7 jersey tonight and I disagree about Hunt...he shouldn't be anywhere near the team, not even at hooker.
