You describe me using the word "propel" as dramatic and then in the next breath say I need a shrink?

I watched it again. It was not dropped. It was propelled. It wasn't with a great amount of force. But the word propel doesn't require a great amount of force to be true.

You need to get yourself a dictionary. Words don't just mean whatever you want them to.

Start with "propel". It will give you a better understanding when you look up "dramatic".

What Cooper did was disrespectful (and I though QLDers knew all about what that is), but Fifita overreacted - and worse, it took a while for him to even get over there to react.

Also, Cooper Cronk is quite quick despite his age. He ran down Val Holmes in a club game earlier this year. He is really deceptively quick.

not only did he run down Tedesco to save a try on that play, but he then ran across field on the try line on the next play and was one of the players who made the tackle on Jennings, alas, couldn't save the try.

an absolute beast. sure he had played 10' less, but it was still a monumental effort from Cooper to run down and then back up. what a footballer and what an athlete. got the rig of a man who works hard and is totally professional in the way he goes about his trade. he could play on for years i reckon.

Hardly. As I said before even Andrew Johns was questioning some of the penalties NSW received last night. It was probably a good thing that NSW won a game to keep their fans interested. To all the Blues fans who think this is the new beginning I very much doubt that NSW will ever see a 12-3 penalty count again ever. To put it another way imagine what the score would have been if QLD had received a 12-3 penalty count...

As Daley mention in the post match interview,Qld gave most of those penalties in the 1st or 2nd tackle.It's a ploy to counter an attacking sides momentum until a mistake is made.

Qld were constantly off-side for most of the game,which eventually wears down the refs observational mindset.

In hindsight,NSW were an easy 20 point better side than Qld but tor the lost opportunities.

So with a 12-3 penalty count. And having 2 of their try's falsely awarded nsw win by 4 and it's "the start of a new beginning" calm down. everyone who was watching knew the Blues were gonna win when thiday had the ball raked out and it was "deemed" a knock on. And people saying that Qld can't complain about the penalties because they were legit. That not even the point. The point is nsw at times were worse than qld in the ruck and no penalties were given to them. And to make matters worse Fifita has shown that you can't get penalised for rolling it through your legs without even trying to touch it so now he has half the qld team doing it
