08 :: Origin III :: NSW 10 QLD 16 @ ANZ

[MEATWAD]

Btw Gidley and Buderus were great. Good on em. Shame Danny didnt go out a winner

I know we can't blame Stewart in any way because he was good when he came on, but when Gidley was at full back geez we looked crisp on the kick return.

 

[Downie]

Wouldn't mind seeing Wallace and Mullen (playing 5/8th) as the halves next year, they should both go alright. Don't rate Pearce really, has his kicking game and a step, that's it. Doesn't have the creativity or vision needed to be a game breaker at Origin level.

 

[Slackboy72]

Carney and Barrett next year. Both can do more than kick bombs.

 

[Pumba]

:iwstupid:

 

[PARRA_FAN]

The whole NSW Team:

Gidley- played well I thought he was one of their best
Hayne- didnt see much of the game
Monaghan- not a bad debut,
Cooper- found wanted at times, otherwise looked good
Quinn- gave away 2 tries, pathetic
Anasta- f***k off
Pearce- did alright, looked a bit nervous, but he'll be there again
Cross- played strong, probably the only forward the looked the goods
Buderus- led by example with his dummy half runs, played well, best of luck to him.
White- overated
Hoffman- not up to Origin
Fitzgibbon- didnt see much of him in the 2nd half, after a solid 1st half
Gallen- made plenty of tackles, but gave away stupid penalties

Stewart- cant understand the reason he started on the bench, shouldve played more game time
Mason- he might make 2 or 3 good runs, but doesnt back up with his talk
Laffranchi- played ok, didnt really seem interested
Tupou- not up to Origin IMO

For Queensland, well the forwards tonight did the job really well. Price, Civo, Myles, Harrison, Thaiday. All played strong, and at the back Folau, Slater, Hunt, Inglis, I mean that backline is unstoppable.

Whats even scary is that Lockyer wasnt there, cant imagine what the scores wouldve been had he played.

Depends on the coach.

Bellamy only wants Roosters, Storm or Knights players.

 

[Butters]

Minichiello
Hayne
Gasnier
Cooper
Monaghan
Mullen
Carney
White
Farah
Kite
Hoffman
Mason
Fitzgibbon

Wing
Sutton
Bailey
Cross

Theres a team that can win a close game.

 

[OVP]

Bring back Gould as coach i say . I thought Bellamy's tactics were a little strange to say the least.

Too much White and Cross for my liking.:lol:

 

[El Diablo]

the positive out of is ithat Bellamy lost

 

[Once Dead]

So wait there ...
Is it the selectors fault (i.e Bob Fulton) or is it Bellamy's fault that a crap NSW team was selected?

They're both at fault.........Bellamy for requestign and the selectors for delivering.

 

[Slackboy72]

They'll stick with Pearce, he's the future.

If he's the future then QLD and AFL have already won.

I thought Toops went ok. He made some strong runs in the second half to get NSW going forward.

For all the morons bagging Pearce, seriously have a good look at yourselves. The kids 19 and he did pretty well. Far better than Wallace.

Anasta didnt have his best game but NSW outside backs are sh*te. Missed gasnier badly and Cooper is pretty average. As for your wingers :shock:

 

[Roosterphin1]

Cmon Slackboy you forgot to say "Put Soward there". Typical idiot dragons fan who thinks he knows all because his team has beat a couple of understrength teams

 

[parra-matters]

The whole NSW Team:

Gidley- NSW's best player
Hayne- all the ball went right, he was on the left, defence was good
Monaghan- great game for a debut
Cooper- he's solid as always but won't win you a game
Quinn- great with the ball in hand, poor in defence
Anasta- Had a ok game, not his best but tried hard
Pearce- did well and should get 1st chance next year
Cross- did pretty well til he got injuried again.
Buderus- played well but was not given enough game time, no coach seems to be able to use him correctly. Should be playing 80mins.
White- needs to try harder in defence, o'meley would have been better.
Hoffman- took to many angry pills tonight and was off his game, needs to play wider
Fitzgibbon- one of the best forwards on the park, but not enough game time
Gallen- well he tries hard:sarcasm:

Stewart- was wasted on the bench, may as well not have played at all
Mason- overated hack, hasn;t played a good game all year and was lucky to be picked in game 3 based on his form
Laffranchi- tried hard but should be starting
Tupou- game didn't suit his style, not sure Bellamy knows how to use him.

I for one hope Bellamy stays on as coach, he has plenty to offer.

Thank god origin is over. Time for the club season to be given the respect it deserves. If QLD win again next year, the origin series will soon become irrelevant on my sporting calendar atleast.

 

[Big Mick]

LOL @ People blaming Archer

You gooses....deadset...if you can't beat a team with 16 guys, and the injured guy being the halfback...you are freaking useless.

In that second half it was all NSW as far as the decisions, so stop your b!tching.

Thats what NSW get for picking a sh!te team. Brett Finch was spot on about Bob Fulton...is he going to resign now?...probably not because he's a knob.

Todd Carney, Michael Jennings, John Sutton, Robbie Farah, Chris Lawrence, Chris Heighington all come into that team next year. Otherwise NSW will lose again.

 

[parra-matters]

isn't Jennings a Qlder?

 

[Butters]

It's about time. All other clubs should be shaking in their boots, the Melbourne Storm are back together again

 

[Slackboy72]

Cmon Slackboy you forgot to say "Put Soward there". Typical idiot dragons fan who thinks he knows all because his team has beat a couple of understrength teams

I've already stated my preference for Carney. And Wallace was streets ahead of Pearce. Maybe you should watch some teams other than your rooters.
