[Rabbit toes]

Bump!!!

Not a stroll definitely a Shuffle, shouldn’t of had that last beverage.

Or the 30 odd before it

Nah, it was definitely that last one.

Ah, so now Queenslanders are realizing that if you take great players out of a team you struggle to win.

 

[Travitoh]

Trent Hodkinson > Ben Hunt

 

[big hit!]

A few brain farts, and a decision based on the assumption that a bloke was going to successfully ground a ball that bounced inconsistently in the goal line. that to me decided this match. Normally it's a NSW player that goes full genius. Not this time. A welcome change

It was a penalty try or 10 in the bin.

So relieved that they didn't bin Ben Hunt. Queensland would have scored 3 tries if he'd been sin biinned.

Ben Hunt - Bringing joy to the Dragons & NSW in equal measure.

The dragons need to start thinking about who they bring in from reserve grade to replace hunt in the finals. The ultimate big game choker.

 

[MilkShark]

So who was MOTM?

Surely Maloney

Trent Hodkinson > Ben Hunt

Much of a muchness

I guess I'd rather defend a deficit going into half time than kick the ball 30 metres dead

bouncing so inconsistently that Chambers had no problems retrieving it.

 

[Sphagnum]

Expect to see Ponga start in the dead rubber.

Possibly in the halves

He was queenslands best. Slater second, daylight third.

Seriously good player. Has to replace the choker at 7 and will take over from Billy next series

Yeah, but that's only Queensland passion that allowed it. Barry Gommersall would have made the correct ruling and sent off Cordner for having the audacity to embarrass Ben Hunt

So what happened to passion and the legendary Queensland spirit?

Or did that go out the door with Thurston, Smith and Cronk?

 

[Nerd]

Passion.

Just being a realist. I said before game 1 if Hunt is our half we're in trouble. Walters one instruction that was quoted to the media was for Hunt to run the ball more often. Did he take the line on? Nope.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Queensland better bring in DCE

LOL Mick Stone would have ruled the penalty try and sent Hunt off for daring to go near the NSW captain. Oh hang on, that would have been a good thing for QLD.

 

[Nerd]

Queensland better bring in DCE

Please no.

 

[Spot On]

Hoping QLD flick Chambers and put Gagai to centre. Latrell to score 5 tries in Origin 3.

 

[big hit!]

How the f**k would or should I know? Are you saying QLD had no passion or spirit out there?

It was a great contest and importantly, NSW won.

 

[___]

Slater was QLD's best. He won't be playing Origin next year though. Tough few years ahead for the Maroons.
