2018 Origin I - QLD 12-22 NSW @ MCG

[Lambretta]

Gordon Tallis on MMM this morning

‘For the last 13 years NSW have had a better team on paper every year, but they don’t have the QLD spirit, that’s what gets us over the line’

I'm on the drugs, I'm on the drugs, I'm on the drugs that f**ked Gordon Tallis

I saw his brain cells being killed, I saw his small mind going down, his intellect had convulsive throws, I said I'll have one of those

Billy Moore had,
Billy Moore had,
Billy Moore had it in his veins.
Billy Moore had,
Billy Moore had,
Billy Moore had it in his veins

Billy Moore had Everest in his veins;
Locky did moon, was not the same;
Toads explore to give us hope;
J Smith pushed back the envelope.

Oh jaysus you guys are coming in hot. Love it!

 

[The Vaulting Violinist]

How are ticket sales looking?

 

[Frank_Grimes]

Does anyone care what Queenslanders have to say?

Yes. You do. You all do.

Just look at this thread.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Yes. You do. You all do.

Just look at this thread.

Don't confuse care with pity.

How are ticket sales looking?

Tele: On track for 20,000
NRL: On track for 80,000

Big Gordie needs to be checked for CTE. Actually lets not get ahead of ourselves...lets locate a brain first and then check for CTE.

Where'll I get my next drug action?

Odds on it'll be Peter Jackson.

The Tele wrote an article saying they'd hadn't yet sold 20,000 tickets just a week out and would be lucky to get 50,000. They reckon they need giveaways and membership promos to break 40,000

Todd Greenburg responded with "sales are picking up nicely and are tracking towards 80,000"

So who the hell knows

Don't confuse care with pity.

No one is buying that for a second.

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

No one is buying that for a second.

Even when it isn't about Queensland, it's all about Queensland.

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Even when it isn't about Queensland, it's all about Queensland.

We've won 11 of the last 12 series, of course it's about us

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

Yeah. If NSW did that, origin would be dead...

 

[The Vaulting Violinist]

I’m guessing another 87k crowd

 

[Frank_Grimes]

Yeah. If NSW did that, origin would be dead...

^ Still can't stop making it about Queensland...

Blues fans - even when they fantasise about winning 11 out of 12, all they can do is think about QLD.

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

^ Still can't stop making it about Queensland...

Yeah. We invited them into the comp, they tried to destroy it but we still managed to fight off their vision...

 

[lockyno1]

Let’s cut to the chase the biggest news for NSW is not having Myth Pearce in the side! He was MOTM for Qld a lot!
