This is probably the highest quality Origin match in a long time too. Such a better spectacle without Gallen & co hogging the ball. Hopefully a new era of fast, open, flowing Origin matches

Good game NSW, well deserved. Qld have issues up front but Napa did respond last year after he got monstered in game 1.

You don't win games when your front row combination combines for 130 metres and second row combines for 155 metres.

I really struggle to see the value to players like Milford and even Peachey to an extent being used as bench players in origin.

Love a keyboard hero who wouldnt say it to someones face
You’re the one who doesn’t understand it you f**k.

You don’t get f**king forward momentum when you’re running sideways you f**king moron.

f**k me, there’s dumb and then there’s you.

Love a keyboard hero who wouldnt be game to say it to someones face.

Grow up mate

We couldn't buy a penalty all game but it hardly mattered in the end. Tedesco tore us to shreds all night up the middle and our missed tackles were unacceptable. Gavin Cooper was comfortably the worst on ground. Just utter trash from start to finish. Munster had a pretty forgettable night too.

Morgan was serviceable at FB, he made some decent last ditch tackles and only looked shaky under one high ball, not sure why he’s copping shit. The outside backs bar Inglis were rocks and diamonds. Gagai’s f**k up was the turning point.

Was interesting to see after the 2nd last NSW try, QLD looked like they were arguing with each other in the huddle.....

First channel 9 game I’ve watched all year, absolutely f**king pathetic commentary. Rabs needs to be put in a home, and Gould has NFI-

‘ you’ll see Cleary stop and then have to go back infield because his winger Trebovic had vacated the right wing so Cleary had no one to throw it to....’ meanwhile the replay is playing as he’s saying this shit and Turbo is clearly still on his f**king wing on the right hand side. f**king infuriating to have to listen to these absolute ass muppets commentate on a game that is one of the showpiece events on our calendar.

Well done you Blue merkins.
To be honest I thought Morgan struggled at fullback. Time to throw Ponga in if Slater is till injured for game 2.

Was also my first channel 9 game for awhile and I found myself hitting the mute button more than a few times while Gould and Rabs were dribbling shit.

Because if a back or the hooker goes down you end up with a 2nd rower filling in somewhere and a major reshuffle in the side. Peachey is the perfect bench player because he can play anywhere including as a running forward

Most metres of any forward.

Another magnificent rep performance by cords.
He was a ball hog wasting hitups for 7m gains.

But yeah taking the ballaway from damaging players is f**king terrific work from Fraudner. But hey let's praise the guy wasting tackles with runs that lead to nothing at all.

Great seeing Gal and Freddy giving Cordner the massive raps he deserves for making the most metres of any forward. I’m not his biggest fan at times but geez he was solid tonight.
Some nsw “fans” on here really missing Pearce. They just need to have a scape goat.
