And the fight had no real victor, nobody looked the stronger out of it.

Can't find?

NSW would give their right nut to have a centre as talented as Hodges.

I think Locky's plan was to see if any of the current crop of NSW had a sack. The NSW greats would have been disgusted watching a backrower push a QLDAer and then RUN behind his own players.

Geyer, Roach, Spud Carroll, McGaw, etc would have been devastated.

If QLD do lose this year, the only hope is that NSW grow a set of testicles in the process of winning....it's becoming embarrassing watching what has happened to our once strong and fear-inspiring adversary.


i think Brett Whites got some

Geyer was a massive cat anyway, he was the type to rush out and swing a punch then run behind his team mates once the back-up came in. His rep should be of a grub, not a toughman.

And Brett White might think he's pretty tough, but nobody remembers his first Origin game where he got the stuffing knocked out of him for the whole game. Tony Carroll broke his nose in his first hit up if i remember correctly.

Ben Creagh would know out Hodges and most Queensland players easily. Just cos he has no bark doesn't mean he hasn't got a bite.

Already your fearless leader is in the media trying to make the game as soft as possible, scared of the mighty blues physical prowess.

LOL Hodges is soft. Whats Hodges fight record, like 3 losses to 0 wins? Remember when Grothe smacked the sh*t out of him :lol:

Ben Creaghe would smack Hodges face off it if came to it.
:lol:

You are an idiot. You need to burn your keyboard and bury it next to Hitler.

I do not understand Darren's position.

Origin biff has always been part of the spectacle with players almost certain with the knowledge the ref will be more lenient than in club games.

Additionally, Qld have nothing to fear from a stoush. Price is not selected this year and it is not as though NSW have strategically selected a team overly capable of low and dirty thuggish play having omitted Bird and Gallen.

Maybe Darren's comments are a smoke screen with Qld preparing for Myles and Thaiday comming out to niggle the likes of Lewis and Creagh.

Where did he say that?

All he said was the referee's need to take more control to prevent moments like where Poore lifted up an unconscious player like a dead s**t.
