SOO Game 1 2021 *Spoilers

[happy_tiger]

And Qld needs to find a centre quick as well ...no knocks on Capewell because he is a good back rower ...but he was always going to struggle with Turbo

Umm..Just 1 quick centre fast...? so what about the other side oh and the middle oh and the far edges..

Agree Capewell wasn't helping much when Trbojevic. was putting Mitchell over on the other side of the field destroying Gagai...

This^

Why do Gagai and Coates get a free pass? They stopped nothing and offered nothing in attack either

I guess as a Qlder I know we don't have two centres that can play SOO .....

Gagai has proven he is real good winger at this level ...not so much as a centre

As I have said a few times ...only a few blokes got a 5/10 ..and that is probably being kind

Good to see the **Tigers Gavin Badger** in the box with Freddy.

Thw secret weapon.

I knew there was a reason NSW played extraordinarily well.


Badge worked with the Blues throughout their week long camp.
Looked like Badge enjoyed the game more than Freddie.

Love the Badger, Since i saw his interview on "The Fan " with Andrew Voss.

Better side won

Only Qlder who deserves feeding was Fotuika ...the rest of the side barring maybe Arrow was pitiful

Green proved why he got sacked at the Cows ...2nd man ..2nd man plays are not going to stack up at this level

Refereeing in the 1st twenty was shocking ....the kick that you got a penalty from and took the 2 .....it was sitting out side my letterbox by the time JAC even crossed the try line

1st try was after a missed offside call ten metres from the NSW try line after we put that kick up and it was knocked on by NSW and then grabbed in a offside position by NSW

2nd try ...watch it again ...shocking obstruction / shepherd in the lead up play / break

Game was over at 14-0

Townsville is a poo place ...nothing good ever happens in Townsville

How was the third try.... and the 4th, 5th....6th 7th & 8th?

???

I guess the top comment covered that ...better side won

Oh sorry.... Your Butthurt bleating distracted me from that gracious concession.... Carry on

Stop being a negative nelly about my negative nelly rant

The biggest call that turned the game was the missed obstruction / shepherd call leading up to the 2nd try

Goers from 14-0 to 8-0 with Qld getting a penalty 40 out ...but then again with Green's popgun plans in attack ....

Sorry Happy, but the biggest call that turned the game was the ref blowing the whistle to start the game???

 

[4jtigers]

Turbo is the best player by far on the game today, he was everywhere last night.

Just my opinion, but I tend to think the 52 missed tackles by QLD had a major bearing on the outcome?
Has there ever been, in the history of Origin, a side clock up that many missed tackles with an even share of possession?
Gosh, in 2015 when QLD had 70% possession helping them rack up 50 points, the Blues missed only 39 tackles.

I just wanna say a huge up yours to NSW people who wanna cheer on the opposition due to 'penrith tossers' , 'political selections' etc.
Suck on a fat one, you stateless wankers.

I just feel sorry for you if thats what it takes to make you feel better

I can see where Gal is coming from .......from 1959 to 1980 Qld won 4 games and 1 draw v NSW

And we stuck solid

How on earth fans cheer against their own state really baffles me.

Enjoyed your passion for the contest. I just don't care. Borders are constructs. The only thing real to me is the Tigers.

Even chanting New South Wales suggests some sort of odd obsession with the western region of the UK, rather than a deep love for the territory that it's used to label this place.

I don't mind people who don't care. I don't like people who cheer for another state.

There are those of us for whom it isn't so cut and dried.
I'm an Ashfield boy but I've lived in Queensland for 20 odd years.
I support the Blues, but I don't hate Queensland anymore. It's hard when you love the place and the people.

 

[Elderslie_Tiger]

Could this be the start of a NSW dynasty with the crop of young Blues coming through and the end of SMITH CRONK & SLATER it's now shows how dominant those players were with the Broncos future looking quite shake maybe its NSW time to shine

 

[tony soprano]

Freddy definitely picked the bones of the panthers team those players are the key to all panther wins

 

[Kelce68]

It's remarkable to think that such a key moment on the league calendar can be so easily kiboshed by so many people.

Because the product has turned to commercialised crap in the last few years.

It has become commercialised yes, but the product is hardly crap. It's different. It's not better or worse, but different. I do wish for the blood baths of the 80s and 90s too, but the game is still enthralling, interesting, the highest quality and always comes with a ton of storylines. As a bloke from country NSW, this game is still very, very important to many people.

 

[hank37w]

We really missed Turbo and Latrell in the centres last series.

Bare Foot Freddie really stuffed up with his centre selections last time around.

 

[TheDaBoss]

Can we sign turbo to play centre lil

 

[hank37w]

Luau been the best half on the field

Luai has been brilliant, so much for the death riders saying he would choke ? Turbo and Latrell are special, how good would that centre pairing be? Turbo isn’t even a centre! Put him anywhere, guy’s a freak.

As much as I hate Penrith, the Penrith connection never missed a beat and were not overawed by the occasion.

Just another game for them, can't wait for our young talent to come through in the not too distant future.

Just hope we manage to keep them when other teams see what we have been able to put together.

At one point QLD had 5 sets in a row ...and still couldn't get anything done.
Defence got it done for NSW and our backs ran riot.

 

[hank37w]

Need an interpreter to understand tedesco

Talks through his teeth

They forgot to tell him to take the mouth guard out before the interview.

 

[hank37w]

How good to see inside and outside centres on occasion? :+1:

Winding back the clock on those plays.

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

Good to see Queensland humbled. Munster needs a stint on the sidelines. Not the first time he's tried to kick someone on the ground. Anyone remember the 2018 GF?

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

50 points .. QLD can’t win the grand final now.
