This decider has the potential to be a modern day classic.
NSW have been the better side this series…It is only the individual talents of the QLDers that have pushed the series to a third game. As a team, the maroons look tired and have been outplayed....so far.
However tonight they have the chance to extend the record to 7 in a row at home in front of a crowd that will be going nuts all game. Ordinarily this would equal almost certain victory but this years Blues are chock full of players who are used to being abused by opposition supporters....a rouges gallery if you will...they wont be put off by the crowd.
Gallen, Bird, Watmough, Stewart, Hayne, Farah, Carney...they are up there with the most sledged players in the comp and rightfuly so in most instances, but have formed a side that could well break the drought...just over an hour to go...cartons on ice, pizza on the way, zz top blaring out the tunes and a dozen lunatics on my deck already half snozzled. I love my Origin...
BRING IT ON!!!!!
