Is this a parody account?
Agree but won’t happen. The only good thing out of today’s loss is if we lose the series Freddy won’t be coach next year.tedesco has to be dropped for latrell or Edwards
I didn't watch it and fell asleep listening to it, so here are the key take outs from Twitter* since the game:
Fittler is a whacko flog and the Fittler/Johns/Alexander combo pick players on loyalty/reputation, not form. Should not be allowed back in the state.
Tedesco's playing powers have peaked and are now in freefall, but he's in denial as shown by refusal to pass to Addo Carr and others.
Cleary was quiet and ineffective - Luai was better than him on the night
Api was good.
Martin was the best NSW forward, Yeo was ok.
Nicho did little to enhance his reputation in his limited minutes.
TPJ - why?? Just why? Fittler flogness again.
I imagine if I repeat these points to colleagues today they'll assume I watched it?
* Yeh, it's Twitter. I know the limitations. Even then, it's slightly above WTF.
I thought the issues last night were largely Tedesco being hopeless, Cleary being ineffective and generally bad selections and use of the bench. Outside of Liam Martin I thought the Penrith players were really ordinary. Luai was ok but Yeo is completely overrated and To'o is in the style of Nofo and not suited to Origin. If they want to win the series they bring in Hynes at 7, Mitchell to 1, Klemmer for TPJ, Olakoatu for Frizell and start Murray over Yeo. Centres of Tom T and Campbell Graham.

5 members of NSW's starting side got absolutely dominated by that spine in the "Carrington Park Massacre" only a few weeks ago. I think it's clear NSW's problem over the past 10 or so years has been a lack of WT representation.
I'll get flamed for this but our starting pack is stronger than the one NSW fielded last night.
I said during the Qld dynasty, the only NSW coach that gets origin is Gould. Just looking at those navy jerseys last night was a flagrant disregard to the series.Agree but won’t happen.

should look at Matty Johns as coach next year
I thought Api played great and was close to NSW best.
TPJ the myth got exposed.
Yeo was ordinary, passes out the back to no one, standing start with hit ups and getting owned.
The rest of the pack was ok.
Teddy tried hard but has peaked.
Lui outplayed Cleary.
Turbo seems to have lost his engine.
The Fox is off the pace.
They'll probably all get selected again!
NSW reminded me of the Wests Tigers (except against the cowboys), they had all the ball and territory but couldn’t score. The halves were ineffective and had no real players in motion.
On a side note, Munster is a freak.
Hudson young had a poor game and was really shown up by Liam Martin. I’m hoping he doesn’t come out with a point to prove tomorrow night.
