Why? Papalii and Cotric have been great. Wighton would have been hailed as a genius if the pass came off.
Would have,could have. But he threw a an intercept to lose momentum and the game. Wighton should put his match fee on 0 at the casino roulette wheel as he has the same chance of earning another jersey.

It was a terrible pass. Hit gagai on the chest, he didn’t even need to reach for it.

What can you do, sometimes there are people like Kalyn Ponga who are too good for the world. As inferior men we can get bitter or revisionist. But at the end of the day he is our bitches, and you can keep your Tedesco's , who can go worship at the scent of Ponga's taint. (what a privilege )

Imagine being out coached by Kevin O’Lemon Walters, Justin the Simpleton Hodges and the man who’s postal address is an asylum Bradley Charles Stubbs.

Frederick Fritzl Fittler should hang his headband in shame for his usage of that bench.

Lol the headwobble coming from the dentist best friends in the Redfern region because their players were pretty much NSW best is pretty hilarious

Freddy needs to work on his bench rotation.
Two out of Klemmer, Vaughan and Jurbo need to be on at all times. And need another front rower.

Haas was ok, but was left out there for too long and gave away a shit penalty.
Murray was awesome, which gives Jurbo more time up front.
Crichton was out there for too long imo, maybe because of injury to Frizzel.
I don't think it's a question of left out there too long with Crichton, he only played 50 mins where as Gillet and Kaufusi played 80 and Cordner 70, with Crichton I just think he's massively, massively overrated. I honestly don't know what exactly he brings to the team, he's not a great defender, not a great ball runner, doesn't have any ball playing, doesn't really have much strike ability, zero mongrel.
Like I said we need our edge backrowers to play 80 so that our middles aren't compromised.

Never has at origin. Why are we looking at backs when the fwds got rolled in the 2nd half?

Because Fergo hits it up better than most forwards and makes the forwards job a lot easier. He is exactly what they need. You obviously haven’t watched him play much with a comment like that.

Except he is a liability with his hands. Cotric and Morris did ok that whole side did a great job tbh. It was the other side that struggled.

I see it differently. He was fine at ht. Team was 8 nil up and winnkng the wrestle. Then Fittler subbed him for Simple Jack at the Mitchell sin bin.

It didnt get better. Fittler needs to look at his own performance before calling out Walker. His subs were f**king hopeless...
Disagree. The clearly better and more dangerous side was behind at half time. Walker was overwhelmed. Cleary played as he has done all year. Mitchell didnt turn up at all. Wighton added energy and spark when he came on. He is worth another shot.

So I fell asleep on the couch at half time and woke up at 3am :rolleyes: will have to watch the second half on Fox when I can

But it’s no surprise QLD won. They did bomb 3 tries in the first half whilst carving up NSW left edge defence. Was it more of the same in the second half?

Fittler did stuff his bench rotation by leaving Klemmer off the field so long but at the end of the day the QLD forwards did a job on their NSW counterparts in the second half and Ponga etc capitalised. If it wasn't for more than a few fortunate calls from the refs that went NSW way and considering how many times QLD got over the NSW try line they are lucky QLD weren't in the 30's by the end of the game.

Yep.

16. Payne Haas
17. Matt Lodge


18. Angus Crichton


Angus Chricton should not be considered for selection again. It's over. They can not have him near that squad. No number 18. No number 33.

Tell him he is from QLD. He puts more effort into their performance.

Would fit in nicely at a Australian Super Rugby franchise.

So much this! NSW lost the game via a small bench and more importantly Fittlers f**king fwd interchange. 8 nil at ht and the halves were doing a great job. What was he thinking?

Yet in the presser he says he hooked Walker and was happy wuth Simple Jack. Wtf?

Out coached by Kevvie and Hodges. Wow.....

They were both better players so not that much of a surprise they are better coaches
