People talking about Latrell & Roberts' D as though they let in 3 tries every game.

Locky and JT are two of the worst defensive halves I've ever seen at rep level and yet I didn't see Qld leaving them out on that account.

You pick your best players. End of. And Latrell is NSW best left centre by a mile and Jimmy is the best right centre.
Totally agree. They talk of them like they are complete turnstiles. How many tries have the incumbent NSW centres let in? I think it's great to finally have a team we can all get behind instead of complaining about selections.

Who would’ve been most likely to get monged last night is the salient question?

Surely BBQ and The Jet

Fergo and Duges the testing material but both out

Freddy putting away the schooners in the Coogee Bay beer garden until dawn

I’ve heard De Belin can put away a few

Probsbly a dead heat between them three

Got a laugh from Chris Close saying that QLD’ers will never bag their team no matter what happens in response to Gallen having concern over a couple of selections. Funny how he forgets that all of Queensland went wild over game 1 selections calling the selectors muppets and then wanted half the team gone after getting thrashed. Such short memories those Queenslanders.

You know it’s origin time when a Choppy comes up with a stinger. When will Benny or Tommy pop up.

Hows this for a trio of braindead oxygen thieves-fat mess Choppy, Respect me ploise Parker and dog Hodges. Wouldn't be an iq point between the deadshits.

They would never question the team... except when they do. God they were all ripping into Lockyer playing at 6 back before the first win with him there.

If there was no passion the Sydney games would be deadset ghost towns for a decade. Plenty of passionate Blues fans out there.

Having people who want NSW to win and being "Queensland" are two different things
Of course there are people who want NSW to win, but we in NSW don't define ourselves as being New South Welshmen. It doesn't permeate all other aspects of our lives. You don't see thousands of people throughout the year wearing light blue NSW stuff.

Queenslanders are Queenslanders first, second, third and fourth. They're Australians about fifth and then whatever town they're on

Down here, we are Eastern suburbs or Northern Beaches or Shire folk or Westies (or name your town) first, then we're Sydney people second, then we're Australians and then we might as an after thought think about being from NSW, but generally not, unless Origin is on.

That's the difference - that's why it means more to them. They measure their lives by it

That's the passion.
