2020 Origin III - QLD 20-14 NSW @ Suncorp

[THE CHAMP]

Seriously, what will it take to get the bullshit out of this game. Kafusi should have been binned! He was a merkin in the grand final, he was a merkin in each game of origin.

Yeah he’s a great player well said

I'm a dragons and NSW fan.

It doesn't get much worse than this.

Or so I thought...

I can't speak for NSW, but from an outsider it almost seems as though Joey was right in saying that NSW just don't get it.

They probably would have gone close if Teddy hadn't have come off though?

 

[The_Frog]

Gotta disagree

QLD bombed like 4 tries. We were kinda lucky to be within touching distance to be brutally honest.

No argument Qld were the better side. But NSW did well enough to have a chance and it came down to a bunker call.

It's all fun and games pouring Gatorade on the geriatric coach until he dies a week later from pneumonia.

 

[Sphagnum]

I think he’s skipping the beers and ringing around looking for ounces.

He’ll be talking like his idols locky and JT by the end of the weekend.

The gap between a Kaufusi and a Jack Hetherington is like a cigarette paper. Anyway I'm happy for Qld to win the series. In fact I predicted it. They did play very well tonight. Here in NSW we care about the good of the game and we understand that NSW winning year in and year out is bad for the bottom line.

Also, I dont think Cook should have been picked. He has been off all year except one or two games

His service was ordinary all series

 

[GongPanther]

Queensland deserved the win but f**k me dead Sutton's lack of game control really rewards cheating play.

Yep. Can't fault the famous Qld spirit. Put them in front of a home crowd, and all hey d all game is turn up for each other. As I expected, some of the Qld players started tiring late. But you have to put that down more to mental fatigue.

NSW played an unexciting and boring game. All this Cleary getting the ball two passes of the ruck, then passing it back inside for a forward shat me no end.

This isn't bias, but if you are going to have a half playing SOO, you want familiarity for him. IMO, Luai would have been perfect for Cleary tonight. In contrast, you saw how much Munster was bouncing around and frustrating the defence. Luai would have done similar damage.

But any hoo, that's footy. Hope everyone had a good 2020 season, and here is to next year. (whenever that starts.)

New South Wails.

I agree. And since NSW have noone better, I suggest we bring back Gomersall.

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

EDIT:Nvm lol

 

[Loose Cannon]

Alright now the games over I've made some images to try dumb it down for you,

Just tuned in to the thread, I haven’t seen any previous posts, no idea of reference, but love this.

Agreed. A shadow of the player he once was.

 

[Marshall_magic]

Has calling a Qld team the worst in history ever turned out good for us? Last time I remember hearing that was game 2 in 06 where we got demolished. I assume 95 was the same thing as well. Perhaps we should worry about picking players in the positions they play for their clubs.

Siri call Jason Smith....

 

[Bring back John Fifita]

Can someone enlighten me as to what Tyson Frizell was doing tonight?

48m in 80 minutes

He ain’t the bloke of 2/3 years ago sadly. But I don’t blame him - he doesn’t select the team.

You mean corona social distancing was way of tonight lol

 

[GongPanther]

If it’s a knock on, how is that full time?

The ball is deemed dead. Sort of when one runs or kicks the ball out

 

[billygilmore]

Man lot of bagging on Cleary in here, poor bastard wasn't gonna do shit the way the blues forwards were bent over tonight, can't compare with Pierce, often the blues forwards dominated during his time and he still f**ked it up.

Pick him, don't pick him, as a maroons fan I'd rather you not

 

[shear_joy9]

wonder how knights fans feel about paying frizell $700k a season

 

[BranVan3000]

Agreed. A shadow of the player he once was.

He might still bounce back. Could be struggling with injury or something, but he hits 30 next year and won't be getting any quicker
