New South Wales by 2 in an absolute belter. The main concern for them will be goal-kicking. Hopefully Carney will bring his kicking boots or JT has an off night.

[adamkungl]

Greg Bird man of the series.

[some11]

This game is going to rate its tits off.

[Timmah]

Why don't they hand GK duties to Pearce or Hayne or something?

[Joe's Magpies]

Farah to have a blinder in honor of his mum.

[I Bleed Maroon]

Their continuing injury woes will keep the Maroons on their toes, but a decider at Suncorp? Please.

QLD by 6.

Good question Timmah. I expect it is because Pearce and Hayne don't do much, if any, goal kicking for their clubs.

NSW by 6. Somehow.

I hope Carney manages to convert. I have a feeling that could hurt NSW.

They dropped Uate for Morris? Shows how much Stuart is so desperate. Uate played well in Game I and it well lack of communication with Stewart caused the Hannant try. Big deal! The guy is an Ausralian winger and Winger of the Year 3 years in a row. He has got class. The twin combo eh? Ah well, lets hope they work well otherwise they might as well make out... QLD are really rigged up. With one of the best FB in the history of football out, they have 4 more options who probably have more class than any of NSW back up FB's... Bowen will probably play as he has got more experience than Barba and his combination with Thurston is vital as Thurston really hasn't had a good sereis at the moment. With the presence of a teammate, possibly his game can boost? I can't possibly see Inglis being picked at FB. He has had little experience there and I prefer Bowen at FB than Nielsen in the centres.
