Lockyer is woeful. Sounds like nails on a blackboard. Thankfully Nein cut to advertisements whenever he opens his mouth. His last failed cliche was something about Queensland having "legs between its tail" with others helping him to complete his sentences.

Possibly but NSW couldn’t control their ego and went on with it.
They’ve lost the second half 18-4 due to it.

Yep and I'm thinking during the 2nd half QLD now know one way to beat them/put them off their game
Plenty of hot heads in the blues won't back down no doubt Klein will have the whistle again... Blues can't afford to give away possesion & field position

Thought Liam Martin and Angus Crichton were both incredible tonight. Just shows how valuable great edge players can be.

Yes I’m sure Madge will be upset by their second half.
I’m sure it’s the opposite of what they discussed at halftime.
Gould is full of it saying QLD don’t take anything out of the second half. At a minimum they get what you just described.

I hate to admit it l, but

Stephen Crichton.. wow.

I can't believe we have Jarome Luai will be here next year with this young crop of stars.

The stars just aligned on that one

Liam Martin is just a great player.
He bullied the Queensland pack into submission.

Liam Martin is just a great player.
He bullied the Queensland pack into submission.

And he was the Blues best in Origin 1 too.

 

[Tigrr2]

Billy shoulda picked Fifita

This was one of those games where one team turns up but the other doesn't...Expect a different game in QLD.

I'm expecting Cobbo to come in the fold for Holmes because he was absolutely pissing himself up against Trellmit, Fifita in for Su'a and Mam in for Dearden for some spark and his combination with Walsh "IF" Billy doesn't make the SOS call to Munster to come back early

Well they'll need to do something or else it'll be a repeat at the Cauldron

I’m happy with those changes, although I’d give Dearden another run. He is a tough little bastard and you need that.

The same play book has been used by Qld sucesfully before. Let NSW regain the feeling of natural superiority, then ambush. The line speed with be immense, NSW's kickers frustrated etc.

Who really believes Qld get beaten in a first half like that.

 

[Tucker]

I hate to admit it l, but

Stephen Crichton.. wow.

This guy is just starting his Origin career.
If he buys into the aggressive and almost thuggish mentality of this level, he will be more dangerous than GI was.
He can go up another level in Origin yet….

Heroic defence Maroons.

That's not how you spell morons.

Tough little bugger but the raging psycho that was Liam Martin running at him all game was hard to watch
