For NSW

Moylan - Terrible on catching kicks. Reasonable with the ball.
Ferguson - A waste of oxygen
Morris - Ok but stupid grubber when Qld were on the back foot.
Jennings - Tried hard didn't get the room he needed.
Mansour - Didn't get many shots. Worth another game
Maloney - Solid rather than brilliant
Reynolds - Terrible kicking game. Didn't boss the game enough in the key final 20
Bird - Defended well. Still shows signs of being a complete moron. Why he was trying to milk a penalty with 4 seconds left was baffling. Trying to pick a fight last tackle when you need the ball was stupid.
Cordner- Good all game. Deserves a starting spot.
Jackson - Also good.
Woods - Busy but needs to ramp it up.
Farah - Service from dummy half was terrible early. Improved as the game went on but clearly not the player of a few years ago. Wants to make the difference but struggles to.
Gallen - Also tried hard. Is a diminishing return though.
Klemmer - The only NSW prop who actually bends the line consistently. Needs to start.
Fifita - Reverting to his Tigers days. Too sideways, too flat. He's not going to palm his way through at this level.
Tamou - Ok but needs to wind it up more when ground needs to be made.
Walker - A waste of a player. Worst pick since Buhrer.

Maloney and Klemmer were your best imo

Apart from missing that on tackle hat led to Qld try I couldn't fault Maloney

Tedesco needs to come in for Moylan next game.

Laurie Daley needs to get the arse as well .

Although woods has a good work rate , he's a plodder in the origin arena IMO .

Ferguson was crap .

woods made like 80 metres in the first 20 but then daley was like better put him on the bench for 50 minutes

Daley's a worse coach than our own Jason Taylor.
Woodsie had enough time to go out for a steak dinner by the time he came back on .

Bench rotation was Garbage

Thought Woods must have finally gone for a hair cut :laughing:

 

[Nelson]

Teddy in for Moylan Dugan in for Ferguson cartright in for walker game 2

It's Daley, it'll be the same team.

 

[stryker]

The bunker and Refs are ruining the game.

The refs were shocking but the bunker worked tonight.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Those post match interviews had me drowning in cliches.

 

[TIGER]

We didn't take the game to qld, we had them out on their feet but our playmakers never took it to them and put pressure on them, we just threw the ball out the back and went sideways.

 

[stryker]

LOL at all these NSW commentators stating they weren't beaten….at least Daley has the nads to say they were.
Fat head and the Junkie are spewing .....

His hair is shocking IMO
A dose of head lice wouldn't go astray !
Looks worse than Nathan Bracken :laughing:

Better side won

Dunno Stryker , NSW looked far more dangerous , but in the end we out defended them

Personally if that had been a boxing match I would of given it to NSW , they were slightly better in the end

I'll go as far that if NSW had picked Cartwright and he had been attacking our left side NSW probably win

Love those sort of SOO games , wars til the end

Wouldn't say better team and not to take anything away from Qld, but I think the smarter team won. Blues were right on top and what do we do, bring on Tamou and Gallen and it all got stale and boring. Walker another Daley master stroke.

Laurie just said the effort was there ..we had our moments ..results don't matter..it's about the team…

Fatty Vautin is right … If NSW pick the same team again they'll get beat !

 

[GNR4LIFE]

None of these commentators have the balls to say this team needs Tedesco.

 

[stryker]

Waaaah Gould…Waaaah Waaaah waahhhhhhhh

The bunker and Refs are ruining the game.

The refs were shocking but the bunker worked tonight.

The Bunker got the Morris Try correct and it wasn't a try but there just boring the crap out of the game, Camera 6 checking the grass isn't cut to short, camera 8 checking his changed his undies :blah :blah :blah.
Have a decision and going to the board " Piss the Bunker system off ".

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Gus says the same thing 20 times in 2 minutes in 20 different ways. Surprised he doesn't spontaneously combust with all that hot air.

Nothing in it - they are just impossible to beat. SOO has into a turned a tackleathon. Dour affair but hard to criticize anyone out there while I'm sitting here in my lounge room.
Not sure it's a great spectacle anymore, but tough as.

Thats what you get, when both sides are metres offside all night, and walk off the mark all night as well.
I know they walk off the mark in the nrl, but not to the extent that its allowed in Origin.
That was the most ordinary SOO game i have ever seen.
It was almost impossible to play football when theres no separation between attack and the defence.

 

[stryker]

He looks like he is about to burst into tears. Fatty should have niggled him

Maybe you should make Laurie your new avatar :laughing:

NSW need to make two changes for Game 2 and they could be on the mark
