2017 Origin I - QLD 4-28 NSW @ Suncorp

[slamminsam246]

it's funny how much criticism cronk has avoided because of his reputation, his kicking game was diabolical not counting the crossfield oates try. it was one of his most ordinary games i've seen and the reality is pearce outplayed him

Criticism should mainly be pointed at the selecters/coach who chose 1/3 halves that has a (origin level) kicking game. Nsw knew Cronk would do 90% of the kicking so Graham was assigned the reletively easy job of putting pressure on him

You were defending him before the game and are still defending him. You clearly have a firm grip on yourself. Cronk plays for NSW the game is well over by HT. Fact.

no that's an opinion because he in fact played absolute shithouse

 

[GongPanther]

The entire NSW puts in an incredible game with every player contributing, not a single bad performance across the park, and some absolutely stunning dominant displays by Teddy and Fifita.....

....... and the poor widdle Pearce haters still can't stop ramming a dildo up their own arses trying to convince themselves that he deserves to be dropped.

The only thing better than watching NSW whitewash the maroons this series is knowing you wankers won't be able to enjoy it

Where can I buy a Courier Mail tomorrow in NSW? I need some fresh fapping material

I'm going to really miss Nate Myles swinging arms and leading with the head in his tackles.

One of Origin's truly great thugs played his last game last night.

Not to mention leading with his knees.He is a dog.

 

[GongPanther]

How as one eye maguire not cited for his stiff arm, clenched fist in to Fafita?!?!?

They caught Chambers with the shoulder charge on Pierce,and Morgan with a grade one dangerous throw on David Klemmer. And apparently there was a chicken wing by a NSW player.

 

[Nice Beaver]

Going for repeat sets is a sign a team has run out of try scoring options.

Hahaha

Bullshit

 

[Nice Beaver]

Anyone checked the Storey Bridge?

That would mean we care wouldn't it?

 

[GongPanther]

Next episode of Queenslanders only will be more of a wake

Can't wait for the next episode,not to mention the Professors Second Year Syndrome.

I can't be stuffed reading all this, did Klemmer get sighted for his coward shot when he dropped his elbow at full force into the back of a Queenslanders neck towards the end of the first half?

Or Fifita for his ridiculously obvious high shot on gillett?

Obviously nsw weren't going to get penalised, as it wasn't in the pre determined script, but do the match review committee just ignore it too?

 

[Paullyboy]

Credit to the Blues, they killed us all over the park. Absolutely no answer to Fifita and Klemmer, even Woods provided some handy offloads. Everyone else was an obvious beneficiary of that. Qld's wingers were probably their best players which says something about NSW's dominance.

I feel QLD stuck too solid with a conservative attacking plan for much of the game and failed to adapt to match the Blues. It's all well and good to go hit up after one out hit up in the middle of the field and bomb on fifth to trap the opposition down in their territory when you have Price, Petro or Scott in your pack, but you can't grind out a victory when your forwards are outmuscled that badly.

Perhaps the early kick so Morris/Fergo/Tedesco couldn't take the ball on the full was the option, or an earlier spread to Milford was the way to go. Milf looked very strong on his edge but stayed there. Not sure if he was overawed, or Walters told him to stay there to simplify his role.

Hard to see where QLD improve from here. They'll never match NSW's firepower in the middle of the field, but Wallace and Hess seem like an obvious upgrade from Lillyman/Myles/Guerra. Perhaps Thurston as another kicking option would improve things too. O'Neill was picked as a solid player and because Gagai was given a bath at centre by Hayne when the Knights played him. Perhaps throwing Gagai in there couldn't be worse given what O'Neill dished up.

As a one-eyed Bronco I defended Boyd's selection, but he'll be dissapointed with that performance tonight. Slater's involvement around the ruck was missed, but he was by no means the difference. Forwards were absolutely pummeled.

Pretty much summed up my thoughts

 

[moffla]

Quire clear both sides got away with a hell of a lot. Myles on Hayne, Fifita high shot are just 2 of many moments. Good to see it's left on the field and both teams are okay with it.

 

[The_Shield]

Got to laugh at the media after the game saying Pearce played his best game. He was shit

 

[GongPanther]

Probably on BHQ, you may see him again after the game on Saturday night, provided we win..

The MILF apparently has been ruled out for Brisbane with injury.

It's not good though, it changed the game. NSW worked out at about the 20th minute mark that they could do absolutely anything and wouldn't get punished. The refs thought they were opening the game up, but in reality they just ruined it because NSW were only ever back 7 or 8 meters prior to each of their dirty shots.

Now it's fair to point out that NSW were the better team, but the refs made it a farce

So Skeepe isn't the only Canberra supporter unhinged.

Good to know.

Haha. Suck a f**k you salty merkin.

Good rebuttal

 

[The_Shield]

I don't think there will be to many changes for game 2. But they have to make some. For instance bringing Slater to fullback, Thurston to 5/8, Chambers right centre, Holmes on the wing, Milford to replace Morgan on the bench, Wallace to replace Myles, Kaufusi and Hess to replace Guerra and Lillyman

 

[The Mad Hatter]

The refs had nothing to do with qld losing.

Nsw were superior in almost every facet of play. Qld were gone at half time.
