2020 Origin I - QLD 18-14 NSW @ Adelaide

[t-ba]

f**k me the Qlderness has rubbed off on DCE. He's gonna sound like Lockout at the Ferny Grove Tavern by the end of this Origin Camp.

Paulo & JAC the only 2 Blues worth feeding.

Saifiti was good early.

 

[Lemon Squash]

Jake Turbo not getting enough hate, did he play 80? I honestly barely noticed him.

That full time being called was a bit of a joke. QLD should've been penalised for holding on and the ball was played in time anyway.

If this felt like a real origin game id be filthy rather than slightly annoyed. QLD deserved to win. NSW picked a shit team by choice. QLD were forced into it. Panthers benhcie Capewell at centre outplayed the top 2 Dally M leaderboard players at centre. Wighton and Gutho were easily outclassed by joke players.

Aside from a few QLD players that second half you couldn't say anyone played well.

Fair assumption. The game never reached any great heights (or low heights) and was totally forgettable. Sure NSW picked a weird side but it was still 100 times better than QLD on paper and if they turned up and had half a go, they'd have won comfortably. Same old story really.

Obviously Wighton and Gutho were out of position but there are quite a few others in the side who are out of form. Jake T has been below his best all year, Frizell the same, Cordner is clearly declining rapidly, Cleary...well... it's already been said by everyone, Cook has been ordinary most of the year and Murray (their most dynamic player) was injured with no input.

lol at the donkeys for sacking Bennett

more rapport with rhis side he has coached for 3minutes than seibold developed in 18months

 

[blue bags]

NSW could do with an Adam Reynolds controlling the field position rather than kicking and hoping.

I'm the same thinking that

Siebold too busy getting his Solicitor to draft letters to the senior players to actually communicate with them.

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

Thanks a lot for employing Munster you merkin

I’d let him trim my pubes

 

[stryker]

One error. Did his job. Lot of defensive work. Involved in two NSW tries. Not his greatest night with the boot but the kicks weren't easy.

He is a dull player who doesn’t worry the defence. As soon as Walker came on I felt the Blues were in with a chance.

f**k that is funny and likely true

If Phil Gould is on the bench he'll win that.

Frizzell's cooked, Wighton was a bit of a farce Dally M, Cordner needs to retire. Plenty of problem selections in this nsw side

Val Holmes lol.

Jake Turbo reminds me of 2008 Spring Champion Stakes winner Sousa

Some of them are puzzling. Picking Guffo in the centres wasn't going to do it, yet Freddy had specialists Lomax and Crichton to choose from.

Carr had a couple of uncharacteristic mistakes which one cost a try. Cleary tried his best, but the bullshit surrounding his state of mind didn't help matters and had an unusually quiet game by his standards.

Capewell single handedly changed the Qlders chances, and he will be first picked in the next for the next game. Players on both sides suffered from lack of match fitness, but will e better fitness wise for next Wednesday's game.

Capewell should be MoM. He turned the game early in the second half. I suspect the idea of Gutho was to cover other positions in the backline in case of injury, allowing him to have Walker on the bench, who did pose threats with the ball in the latter stages. Still, he should be looking for a genuine utility so he doesn't need to play so many people out of position. Not sure he's got one in the squad though.

 

[Vee]

Sigh. Wear a jersey that makes them look like road kill...

Appropriate tonight...

Don't worry mate you now at least have Kevvie.

 

[Bazal]

I feel like Saifiti got given some of Paulo's runs cos I swear Paulo made more than six, but the NSW front row was good.

The back row was pathetic for the most part, although Concussion Cordner had moments and worked hard. Losing Murray hurt I guess.

 

[tigprize]

Should have played that one n Bali - at least the players would have wanted to be there.

An absolutely soulless SOO
