What a shit job on the anthem. Where's Julie Anthony these days?
It was definitely different and that's not always a bad thing but after seeing and hearing a replay of it this morning I was disgusted that it just sounded too American Country and Western.

Did anyone check out Jakes reaction, I thought he was going to boost his run metres by running out of the stadium. 🤣
 
Did Madge somehow manage to make Walsh lose his footing just before contact as well?

Thats quite an imagination.
Nah, that's just knowing that Madge pushes too hard. Lots of players lose their footing and they are not knocked into Disneyland like Walsh was. Suaalii was clearly overly amped up and reckless. I thought the first hit on Walsh after his kick was late and worth a penalty too, so that was the plan.

Of course we should hassle their guns, but with discipline, like Qld did with Hynes. The main reason Qld usually win is not passion, that's rap. They simply have some people like Slater and Smith who are smarter than their NSW counterparts. Those guys have been orchestrating Qld victories for 20 years. Qld almost always plays smarter than NSW, and with more composure.

What we need are smart players and a coach who is as smart and dedicated as Slater. Is there anyone?

Madge is a myth. Look at the players he had at Souths when he won in 2014. I'd rather Geoff Toovey he's no dummy he has a university degree.
 
Nicho not worth a pinch of the proverbial, played exactly the same as his last effort,
And did nuttin again.

And that other idiot should have never been selected in the first place.
Might as well start playing Rugby earlier.
He alone destroyed what was going to be a Great match.
Admittedly NSW were always on the back foot after Suaali’s send off, but disregarding that, I think Hynes has Mitchell Pearce vibes about him. Great in club matches, out of his depth in rep games.

Not even great in club matches.

If you pressure him and force a couple of errors eg. kick out on the full as an example his head goes down and he is done.

Have seen it now a couple of times this year, we even did it to him.
 
Comment this morning about Luais continual dancing and sideways movement stifling the Blues attack( didn’t we offload a winger for that crime - when he turned up ). Will be interesting if he gets another shot in Game 2 and I’m trying to guess what that will mean for us moving forward ?
If the game was played sideways and tries were awarded over the touch line, we’d be premiers every year 😂

True! He has had some good games this season and he was pretty good with Melbourne before that, but to say he is overhyped in the media would be an understatement.

An announcer on our local ABC radio said this morning her highlights were the Lomax try and the look on Jake's face.
