2016 Origin II - QLD 26-16 NSW @ Suncorp

[Bronxnation]

Personally I don't understand the NSW game plan at all. Seriously they have such a big pack and they do those stupid tip ons. Nsw should simpily have 4 props on the bench and play off big Hitups from their power forwards as well as 2nd phase play through offloads. It's stupid how they have a 2nd row/centre on the bench

 

[Nice Beaver]

Walker was shit, Jennings was shitter. Doesn't mean walker gets a pass just because the other center was channelling his inner Paul Cariage.

My point was old mate is singling out Walker when there are 2 centres im the team and one was FAR worse than the other. F*cking dreadful.

Anyhoo, onto next year.

The only real difference is the pride and culture between The camps. Qld wear their heart on their sleeves and it's the little 1%ers that they put in that shows just how much it means to them. Of course there are some exceptions like oniel. But overall nsw really need to strive to create a culture like qld have. For example the chase frizell did. That's the little things nsw need to do if they want to win. Currently they just don't and it shows at the end

Special win.

The Queensland spirit burns bright in the heart of seventeen Queensland warriors.

Jesus Christ merkin it's rude to wank in public.

 

[Game_Breaker]

Bullshit

Qld forward have outplayed NSW supposedly better pack for a decade

:lol:

NSW had plenty of chances and field position to win both games this year

I'm not going to start analysing 10 years of origin (useless when I was clearly quoting a post talking about players from this years origin)

 

[Walt Flanigan]

I remember when a NSW loss used to sting a bit, now it's just meh.

You can't blame QLD for having such a champion side. NSW Origin is just a bumbling mess and needs a big clean up from the top down. As much as I love Loz, he really needs to fall on his sword because NSW needs a seasoned coach, we don't have a team like QLD that basically coach themselves. I thought NSW looked better under Ricky Stuart TBH and that's probably because the guy is a massive control freak and probably didn't let guys like Fulton and the other dinosaurs stick there noses in. I'm not suggesting he coach NSW again but get a full time quality coach in and let him run the entire show.

Otherwise we just have to wait for Smith, JT & Cronk to retire.

 

[Slammin_Saint89]

It's nearly a good NSW side. Just need to get rid of the last of the losing brigade in Gallen, Bird, Farah and Jennings and they will easily account for Qld next year.

Oh...and Daley and Fulton.

 

[pantherz9103]

Fox Sports should get the chance to call origin so we don't have to hear the boys club and all the unfunny banter

 

[Unscrupulous]

Garbage. Every Origin win is cherished and savoured.

Lol. No it isn't. The law of diminishing returns.

Absolute crap.....face it if Jennings finger doesn't touch the ball NSW win

 

[Cloud]

Add in Dugan and Pearce and NSW win.

 

[Craigshark]

What has Michael Jennings ever done to deserve his automatic selection?

 

[mongoose]

The NSW pack weren't beaten.
The back line is just not organised and have no set plays. That's on the coach

If JT plays for NSW, they they win

The thing is its the forwards where NSW should really dominate and bully QLD but they never do. The QLD pack at least matches them in every game. A guy like Klemmer should be winding up and belting QLD in every hit up and tackle but he has barely any impact. Woods and Tamou may have ran some metres but they were easily contained and hardly any offloads.

 

[Generalzod]

The guy who captained NSW to another series loss.

Well atleast he captained his state.

Does curling up in a ball under the what if's sign bring you comfort?

 

[TheVelourFog]

Ha

Woods seems like a good guy

 

[Cloud]

Woods has a potty mouth. Fine his ass.

 

[sladden road]

Gallen Should have retired from origin when he won it 2014

This x 1000

 

[chigurh]

Garbage. Every Origin win is cherished and savoured.

Yup. Especially against the odds like tonight, given the ageing QLD side. Might effort from the Maroons

 

[Vic Mackey]

What has Michael Jennings ever done to deserve his automatic selection?

In years gone by it was fair enough, but when you've got guys like Leluia and Bird carving up in his position it would a bit ridiculous picking him
