'11 | Origin I | 25 May | QLD 16-12 NSW | Suncorp #origin

They are the live stats from the nrl website. They will probably be adjusted but the gist will be the same

Those....were shameful.

 

[Apey]

Death riding your own fullback during SOO is pretty disgraceful scenes. Might as well go off and marry your cousins and learn the banjo because you are essentially supporting Queensland with those antics.

:lol: Where have you Raiders fans been the last few years where people have been riding Gidley? Oh wait, some of you have been the ones doing so.

 

[saint_marto88]

Seriously? Name one thing he did when NSW had the ball.

Averaged more than 10m per hit up. And made 40 tackles. And provided some aggression, wasn't afraid to get stuck into them

 

[Ron's_Mate]

Dugan was good.
Jennings was good.
Uate was promising
Gasnier needs to learn how to pass
noneck Morris was poor
Soward was promising
Pearce was OK
Gallen was OK
King was hopeless - slow and fat
Ennis was a disgrace - never to play for the Blues again

 

[Ron Jeremy]

If Ennis retains his spot Farah will never ever get picked. Swap Morris for Hayne. Tolman for King.

hayne has to be there somewhere, he's NSW best player, you make a f**king game plan around him, same with farah.

These two need to be there to add spark, we have none

 

[aussie7798]

Pure and simple you cant win many games of league when your front row is obliterated in the fashion nsw was tonight

that's because Gidley is shit

Newcastle players don't count

Besides I try not to go into games with the hope of someone f**king up because thats a poor position to be in. I thought Gidley was best on ground in his last outing for NSW and would have him in place of Young. He just isn't as good a fullback as Dugan or Hayne.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

why is everyone rating Pearces game? i thought he was terrible yet again, no spark, kicks were pathetic...........soward wasnt much better, but atleast he could kick the f**kign ball

He did his job as a halfback but his defence was the big one. He saved so many tries in the second half..........inspiring stuff.

 

[Tiger Hawk]

FMD are you serious?

Thanks for the selective quoting. But yes, for the reason I stated. As has been proved over the past few years, we're not going to beat this QLD team with their once in a generation level of attacking potency with defence. We need to at least pose some questions and sadly, we only did that on one side of the field through Pearce, Bird, Jennings & Dugan. If we had some balance on the right hand side, there's a chance that:

a) Thurston would have had to do some more defending; or, even better
b) we might have created a few more try scoring opportunities.

 

[Ron Jeremy]

Morris -> Hayne
Gasnier -> Idris
Soward -> Carney
Scott -> Lewis
Merrin -> Learoyd-Lahrs
Young -> Gidley
Creagh -> Watmough

QLD>NSW

:lol:

It was a good effort, definitely held our own for the majority. There's only a few players that should be ashamed but I think there's definitely a lot of positives to take out of it. Another day we'd have held QLD off. Gasnier had a nightmare, and Young was a bit useless and Morris came up with a schoolboy error there. Ennis' kick on the 4th was also a monumental screw up.

 

[Pete Cash]

Well I think we have to face the facts that Queensland are a better side. It doesn't mean we can't beat them and beating them starts from at least nullifying their ludicrously good front row.

 

[ccr]

QLD
Matt Scott - 155m
Petero Civoniceva - 146m
Ben Hannant - 127m

NSW
Jason King - 25m
Trent Merrin - 32m
Kade Snowden - 56m
Tim Mannah - 57m


NSW forwards were embarrassing.

 

[Charles Bronson]

king was out of his league, worst selection and should be the first one dropped.

 

[Tiger Hawk]

Mate, that's great. As I've said ad nauseum, he was great in defence. I've got no issue on that front. I just felt watching that game that we could have done considerably more when we had the ball, and it's hard for the ball-players when they don't have any options. f**k, I'd prefer Creagh to Scott cause at least he runs some f**king angles.

And as for the 10m per hit up, where'd you get that from? And how many total metres and runs did he have? Cause I saw him run the ball about 4 times and there's no effing way he made 10m per run.

 

[JT_]

Those are some awful stats, but Mannah and Snowden probably had about 10 carries between them. Gallen and the outside backs pretty much did the work.

 

[mongoose]

Matt Scott - 155m
Petero Civoniceva - 146m
Ben Hannant - 127m

NSW

NSW forwards were embarrassing.

So Matt Scott made nearly as many metres than all NSW props combined? bahahaahahaha ...

 

[chrisD]

Rickhead's fault. QLD's right was ripe for the taking all night and our best attacking player who destroys good edge defense was sitting watching on TV. Our no-name props struggle to average 4m a run when there's players like Tolman on the offering. And then there's Hunt and Ennis. Just a dumb ass selected team.

 

[ironhorse]

did Creagh play ?, mr invisible .
