2018 Origin I - QLD 12-22 NSW @ MCG

[ReddFelon]

Does Casey Affleck play Cameron Smith?

Nah, Kasey Badger. Spent years researching the role as a ref, top notch character actor.

Not really , Roosters players normally turn out to be duds when inserted into NSW origin teams .

Cept for the chello

 

[Frank_Grimes]

This is a joke right? Good one

It is becoming a joke how obsessed the Blues fans around here are with QLD. Find a hobby or something.

Kicking back watching the night Origin went to the MCG in 1994.

Why are you smothered in peanut butter and wearing fishnets... You should have looked at your reflection on the tv screen before uploading the photo!

So Blues fans, how moist are you all at the thought of having Latrell Mitchell to cheer for in your team?

Pretty excited tbh. He represents a changing of mentality from the "made for origin" 4th tackle settler type player that has infested NSW selection policy for the past 15 or so years.

I hope Fittler, Maloney and Cleary have been paying attention to his game this year, and seen what he can do when he isn't starved of early ball.

Same can be said about Roberts. Lets see how he goes with decent halves.

With no Josh Jackson who’s gonna be Sterlo’s best on ground after 8 tackles and 3 ineffective hit ups?

 

[The Vaulting Violinist]

Cronk and Keary aren’t decent?

Without us you are nothing.

We are but a mirror.

Like Fittler, Minichiello, Wing and Fitzgibbon? Probably 4 of the best 6 or 7 Blues players this century to date.

f**k if NSW lose it will be like humiliating kick in the crutch

Freddy is a Panther mate but I'll give you the other 3

Fair play.

Admittedly the others are no Joel Clinton, Tim Grant or Trent Waterhouse, but they went pretty damn well

Mini is imo NSW best ever fullback. Pre injury from 2003-2005 he was a God and more dominant than Slater has ever been in Origin. And Wing destroyed Qld. The best utility/hooker I've witnessed. And FitzGoddon was a beast in Origin, too. Always rose to the occasion unlike that plodder Hindmarsh.

Lucky he did good in Origin because he was dickfingers in the 03 GF. Pearce in reverse perhaps?

Wing was a Rabbitoh and Fitz was a Steeler.

Does Casey Affleck play Cameron Smith?

Yeah he spent six months with the refs to prepare for the part.

f**k if NSW lose it will be like humiliating kick in the crutch

Hard to see anything but a NSW win. Totally different QLD team this year

 

[Barkley]

f**k if NSW lose it will be like humiliating kick in the crutch

Meh...we've had a decade of humiliation, whats another year?

Ease up tommy, you don't want to flog yourself too much before the big game
