1957, that's nearly 60 years ago. I didn't realise they were even counting for and against that long ago. I wonder if the ladder was numbered accordingly then or whether teams were "Equal first", etc..

Looking at the ladder yesterday I noticed that the Titans are outright first place (4 wins from 5) yet have a negative for and against (-9). Surely this must be some kind of record, 5 rounds into the season? Any keen statisticians out there know if this is the case? Of course I could be wrong.

You're all forgetting that Robbie's not "Built for origin" like "Bedsey" or "Mick Ennis"….

On the train heading back to Redfern after the game some Saints supporters were saying "thanks for Moltzen next year".

I agree but not so much because of the charge, rather that they've set a precedent for letting big name players off (Hayne, et al..) before important games. It would be hypocritical to suddenly try and be seen as fair to all players in all circumstances.

You missed out on the best bit; Certainly I need to be very dominant and controlled through the ruck there and ensure that I'm getting the big boys over the advantage line and hopefully getting Queensland going backwards, which would be nice." The bloke's deluded.

Hoppa Snr re-signs?

Shouldn't there be a seperate forum within the "National Rugby League" section dedicated to all things State of Origin? There seems to be SOO topics spread throughout the various sections and it would be good to have one place to discuss them all. What do others think?

On nearer to 10pm I think. The Test will probably run over a bit.

**City-Country a genuine Origin trial** Brad Walter SMH May 6, 2011 NSW Origin coach Ricky Stuart was on hand last night as Blues great Chris Mortimer handed out the jerseys to the Country team, but for all intents and purposes all the players involved in tonight's match at Albury are on the...

Ennis was running around yesterday like a blue arsed fly, getting into everything in a transparent attempt to get the origin nod.

Maybe but that's not point. Wrong club for him, it's not part of what Wests Tigers are and/or represent.

Wests Tigers don't need that numbskull Watmough anywhere near the team.

On ya Toddy. My 9 year old daughter has just started devouring books and it's great to see.

Is it too soon to recall my favourite Moose quote from the time when he was against having a beach near his house declared a nudist beach? - "I don't see why I should have to have other peoples genitals shoved down my throat". Hope he gets better.

Also i believe it's Todd's 250th rather than 200th game….

Farah won't make the team as 1st choice hooker. Here's Stuart in the SMH a few days ago; ''I have never seen a player want to go out and play an Origin game and lose,'' Stuart said. He also revealed that he had created a video featuring players whom he felt were ''Origin players'', which he...

Sheens "Im looking at you, Beau Ryan".

Don't know how quotes like this from a SMH article in Oct 2010 him will endear him to Newcastle's mainly working class population; ''You're a f–-ing deadbeat, people like me don't bother with f---ing you,'' he said. ''You climb out of your bed every morning for your pathetic hundred grand a...
