Well he is going to have more shitty fullbacks this year. We making excuses for him already?

We won despite Reynolds and Hodkinson, not because of them.

Probably Mullen and Pearce.
Two good kicking games, both defensively capable, and both have good long and short passing skills.
Still not sure who I would want as fullback just yet.
Stewart has the experience and is still a very good player. Dugan has the size and strength. Moylan has terrific ball skills and speed (but is very inexperienced).

We have capable players to put at the back, but Hayne leaving really did leave a big hole there.

Can they match QLD in strength and defence ? Yes.

Can they win it without Hayne ? No. QLD have too many strike weapons and NSW have none.

I agree with Lote.

Simple for me, NSW don't have @jarrydhayne_1 so QLD by 10. He made almost every big play when needed..

Hayne is the difference at the moment.

If hayne plays we win, simple as that.

The score flattered nsw, one bullshit kick from Dugan which he has never done in his life and nothing in attack.

Our forwards are solid, but hayne is th ex factor we are missing and will miss.

He played ok, but if hayne plays you would've seen more creativity in attack, and a few more try's IMO

Dugan is just solid, but has limited X factor ability

Hayne chips and scores, that us the difference between hayne and Dugan

Tell us more about how it's aaaaaall Hayne

DCE had to make 30 tackles last night. That's double what 7's normally make.

and took out Morris in the process

(I yelled at the prick, as you do while watching Origin)

You know, if that stupid chick who did the 'Friday, Friday' song had a speech impediment, it would have been 'Thaiday, Thaiday'. Just sayin.

what's all the bullshit talk about pearce having a loose carry on that strip - it was tucked well under his arm and morgan ripped it free .... 1-on-1 strip but clear knock on ... then also forward off myles to offside inglis .... no f**kin try - simples

Yeah, I don't get the media outrage?

Why is nobody saying 'um, Myles knocked it on'

Worst case, clean strip by Morgan, Inglis offside, penalty or scrum for 'accidental offside'.
What it looked like to me, strip by Morgan (1 on 1 - fine), then Myles left hand knocks on, Inglis offside. penalty or scrum for 'accidental offside'.

I also wonder about Dugan's try at the end - if NSW were down by 8 points do they get awarded a possible 8 point try for the knees in the back???

That is exactly the case. It's quite simple really. It wasn't "controversial" as the media are saying to day, it was just a run of the mill everyday style knock on.
Phil Gould's commentating on this incident was some of the worst commentating I have EVER heard. That man was seriously bad last night. I'm sure he had big money on QLD to win. I'm not joking.

I honestly think that Gould wants every NSW coach to be unsuccessful, so that people will say that no NSW coach was as successful as he was.

...That and he probably had a few sly bucks on QLD to win.
