Origin 3

[sandshark]

Only Daley could sit down before this series and pick Cordner as Captain.

CT would have offered more then Pearce at HB, he can at least find the ground with kicking game

You've changed your tune a bit mate! You're normally into the Chad!

On the Tele website today Holmes says winning origin was better than premiership win for sharks

He should be stood down, fined 50k (20k suspended) and sentence to 100 hours servicing Paul Kent.

How dare he say that winning origin was up there with winning a Comp

Who gives a shit. All him saying that guarantees is, smith picking him every year. Queenslander!!!!!!

 

[shaggs]

Also if Cleary continue es to ply like he did against the lowly warriors, then he is already a better origin player than Pearce

Look on the bright side.Sharks won, our winger cum fullback scored 3.That's 3/5 of the total number of tries scored that night.Plus we won the bye last weekend.

Also Graham played well as did Bird.BBQ saved a try, and Fifs the less said,
I'm starting to believe although he is young STM,the Penriff half is a far better tactical kicker and reader of play than Pearce.

Graham played well? Can you not understand turning points in momentum both games 2 and 3 were strip penalties

 

[Card Shark]

No one in a blues jumper played well...we didn't have nearly enough desire to win, we believed in the media hype of "its our time."

Queensland on the other hand, knuckled down & got the job done, when all seemed lost 120 minutes into the series.

They used about 30 players over 3 games & blooded 8 new maroons.

Arguably their greatest series win ever.

Graham was undisciplined and showed a complete lack of game sense in giving away penalties and missing tackles at critical times. Refs rarely call hold down penalties but will always call a blatant strip.

He was good in game 1 but really needs s good finals series to show he gets it done in big games.

I repeat ,Graham played well with his limited time compared to the rest..Odd penalties aside.Hell we Sharks are used to giving away penalties BBQ/Fifs.
Our forwards offered nothing and the hooker did little.

The games were full of turning points I lost track of them .Bad reads, slack defence,sloppy handling,blocking by Maroons' players let go etc.

The simple facts are Maroons played rl as it should be played backing up,variety in attack,defending as one,turning the attackers back inside, actually using their backs, bottling up Fifita and Larry Long Hair,Pearce kicking straight into the arms of the opposing wingers and fullback easily read.

The Blues were a lost legion, games will have turning points because of the human factor.
Tedesco was probably the only one who could hold his head high.The rest of the team had no oomph.

Hooper reporting that Pearce has left the country for a few days to get his mind right after Origin. Hopefully someone told him that was the last time he'd wear the NSW jumper.

Seriously?

 

[Dragon Slayer]

[sandshark]

Seriously?

[Frenzy.]

Can't believe he is getting mentioned in playing in an 8th SOO series.

Doesn't 7 SOO series losses and no wins tell you we should try someone else.

Talk about the golden child.

Fijian Furry Freinds beware

Every journalist and media profile talks about picking Pearce because no other half is stepping up. Well how the f**k would they know if no one would step up if they don't f**king give someone else a chance!

They have no idea.

 

[shaggs]

Cleary was real good last night. This time next year, more performances like that it will be Mitch who ??

Fifita, bird, and Graham are devastated at their series loss. You could tell by the way they played tonight. Maloney couldn't even play, braith said how hard it must be.
