2019 Origin I - QLD 18-14 NSW @ Suncorp

[Grapple]

I guess Gillett is there on experience and that he'll probably lift for Origin? Been pretty down on form this year from the few games i've seen.

QLD have plenty of good kicking options though. Hunt, DCE, Munster, Ponga, Morgan....still plenty of creativity there and can spread the load around a bit. Definite advantage over Blues there.

Finucane is really a toiler in a very good team. Jake.T, Murray and even Radley offer much more.

Jake T yes. The rest a big no. Dale was extremely unlucky to miss out.

 

[King hit]

People still pumping up Croker to play for NSW

Wish they would give it a rest

QLD by 4 ceremonial pissings

Cleary is the weakness for NSW. I hate to bag the kid but he's not an origin player, he's going to get slammed if NSW lose. Problem is theres hardly any better options.

NSW's extras named - Ryan Matterson is 18th man, Victor Radley 19th man.

Sutton refereeing at Suncorp.. Great.

 

[big hit!]

Walker building upon last year's Indigenous match up:
NSW left edge: Walker - Mitchell - AdoCarr
QLD right edge: (DCE) - Chambers - Gagai

these should give us some excitement again

Sutton refereeing at Suncorp.. Great.

Ridiculous to even suggest he is in the top 2 refs in the game. He should be running around with his whistle in NSW cup.

Sutton promoted after that reffing debacle in the Souffs tigers game

What a joke

I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact his brother runs the referee ranks

The best young 28 year old centre in the game

He's deadset the worst ref in the game, gets a free ride his whole career

Can't wait for the penaltyathon.

What were some of the stuff ups? I watch most games every week but when I switched on this game and saw Sutton I turned it back off.

Basically just BS ruck penalties that only tigers were getting pinned for when Souffs were just as bad if not worse

Sam getting tackled too hard, drops the ball, has a cry then gets a penalty and they score next set etc

Only have to watch the game day thread to understand how shit it was. Seriously the most one sided reffing I've seen in awhile

Apparently he’s been spotted at the Down Under bar cutting some serious shapes.

Not gonna pick for this one. Those squads are so even that no f**ker has any idea who will win it. Not the media, not the coaches, not the fans, not the bookies, nobody. When those teams are out there in that atmosphere and are able to get a read on the tempo the game is gonna be played at, whether it be slow and grindy or fast and open, whoever adapts the fastest will win.
