Tom Sangster reveals his team for NRL Origin SuperCoach Tom Sangster and Heath Kelly run through the SuperCoach positions ahead of the new State of Origin SuperCoach game. Robbie Farah is captain in Tom Sangster's SuperCoach Origin team. Captain earns triple points. Vice captain earns double. NSW has the better forward pack, but Queensland hold a clear advantage in the backs. This was the theory behind my team selection for our brand new game SuperCoach Origin. According to the stats, the Blues have a far superior pack, with a team average of SuperCoach 68 points per game as opposed the Queensland's 57. On the other hand, Queensland's backline out points NSW's 59 SuperCoach points to 53.

Hooker: Robbie Farah (capt) Cameron Smith may be considered the best hooker in the game, but when it comes to NRL SuperCoach, he's neck and neck with Robbie Farah. But when Smith's goalkicking is taken out of the equation (he won't kick in Origin as Johnathan Thurston has the duties), Farah is a better player by approximately 12 points per game. Prop: Paul Gallen (vice capt) Laurie Daley has said Paul Gallen won't play 80 minutes, but Gal can produce more in 65 minutes than others can in the full game. Trent Merrin and Andrew Fifita are also SuperCoach guns, but may struggle for minutes off the bench. Back row: Greg Bird The toughest position to fill. Corey Parker was a definite option given his form for the Broncos, but game time could be an issue from the interchange. Bird's work rate is not as high, but he's assured of big minutes. Halfback: Cooper Cronk Queensland hold a massive advantage here. Cooper Cronk gets the nod over Mitchell Pearce, no questions asked. Five-eighth: Johnathan Thurston James Maloney is a good player and a quality SuperCoach performer, but it's impossible to go past the great Thurston. He knows how to produce at this level. Centre/wing: Greg Inglis There are big game players, and then there's Greg Inglis. He would meander away all year for the Storm and produce just three good games a year - all in Origin. He barely touched the ball on Monday night, but will no doubt come out firing for the Maroons, even if he's not playing in his favoured position. Inglis plays well when he wants to - and he'll have plenty of motivation on Wednesday. That said, Justin Hodges and Michael Jennings are also great options. Fullback: Billy Slater Jarryd Hayne is the best fullback in SuperCoach history, but unproven in the number one jersey at Origin level (although he's put in some cracking performances on the wing). Billy Slater is proven in big games and has a great combination with Cooper Cronk and Cameron Smith, particularly at the back end of each half.
