Honestly though, you don't sit and cry because a couple of calls go against your team, you get determined and try damn harder.
Anyone would think NSW are the only ones that get dudded calls in a game, ffs.
They are in origin

the rule is you can't run behind you own player, full stop.
Anything following is irrelevant.

You can run behind your own player, it happens all the time. They're just not allowed to impede a defender.

Funny how just like in Melbourne the rules of RL of the previous 104 years are disregarded to help Queensland.

Doesn't matter anyway. "Origin" part of Origin hasn't meant a thing for years. Let him play for whoever he wants to. Let them all decide, then we can just watch them play.

Exactly, it's been state of choice for years, who really gives a shit where they are from anymore.

Lewis is one of the best players in game II, an 80 min player and has never let NSW down. Sits on the bench whiles Nuffies like Creagh and Beaugenius Scott stink up the jersey. Stuart is a f**king idiot, and two props in Origin :crazy:

This hasn't been the interpretation for years despite what the old farts in commentary think the rules should be. There has to be a defender impeded. There wasn't, we sucked, try.

That's how I see it. No defender was impeded and the guy that should and could have made the tackle didn't try because he was too busy waving his arms around like Maradonna.

Sure there have been some howlers, but Queensland dominated that 2nd half of the first half.

If T-Rex hit someone in the head like he was hit he'd be sitting on the sidelines for 4 weeks.

Do NSW realise if they blame everything on the referees they'll never improve?

you see players who make the mistake of running behind teammates almost stop and surrender....because they know its against the rules.
Shame that once again a great game is tarnished by rubbish officialdom.
