2023 State of Origin ~ Game 2 *21st June*

[King-Gutho94]

Moses was pretty average last night ... he started ok, kicking was decent, but as qld started to roll us he ended up just running sideways - like the times for parra when we are getting done and our backline movements crab to the sideline.

All our potential threats just crabbed around sideways - Qld just kept their line and defended like stars.

Cleary is still the best halfback NSW has - though the way Qld played he probably would have achieved little last night too.... might be ok with a 7 Cleary, 6 Moses combo

Qld were just too good ..... they REALLY care about origin, so much that they take it personally. NsW cares, but nowhere near as much.

I'll be honest i think Mitch threw the towel in the last 25 mins.

But I don't blame him not many others were having a crack. And at 26-6 the game was done.

I think he is a big enough to handle the criticism he knew he would cop it if they lost.

Mitch should replace the standard "no comment" response to any media questions about his performance in Origin with a simple "Team Game, hey!"

On what planet do you only play Barlow for 30 mins ? Reading hate for him this AM. Blah blah he only ran for 70m. Well f**k.

Just don’t pick him FFS.

Fresh for the Phins on Saturday BA should be happy as Larry.

Has Juniors form warranted selection though.

His best game was against Souths after Latrell bitched him in a tackle which embarrassed him into action which coincidently was the week before Game 1.

I think moses was waiting for an opportunity to run.

He kept on dumping the ball back to a straight runner

He was looking for a defensive lapse but none came

 

[yy_cheng]

I wished we defended like qld. Our tries will come easy if we can defend like that

 

[the phantom menace]

Yep, the Qld edges and middle were very solid.

By comparison this year we've had to carry the missed tackles (among others) of...

I am not all surpised by the result ... though it seems like Fittler is .... though he is a moron when it comes to coaching so that is no surprise.

My opinion of Slater as a coach is increasing expoentially with each game. He won this game for Qld before the first game even started, possibly even last year. The criteria he uses to select players, to his in game management, to his motivational impact. Borderline genius.

Fittler in comparison is a deadet moron. Mind boggling selections, putrid in game management, little motivational impact.

Fittler and co is why NSW lost

Slater is so much more savvy in everything he does compared to Fittler. Slater comes across respectfully when quizzed on coaching selections, tactics or question marks.

Fittler seems to get rattled when there's criticism and question marks and resorts to "don't really care what so and so think" type answer's....

But the bottom line is, as @strider said, QLD simply care more about Origin than NSW.... Always have bar a few years here and there....

 

[yy_cheng]

Nsw are like a team of mercenaries whereas qld are like defending their lands

 

[IFR33K]

There is no pride for the jersey with alot of players in this team.

Origin is dead. QLD pick players that want to play for the jersey. They do it so much better than nsw.

Billy has pulled his head in a bit.

He was always a turd who hated losing and do anything to win and would resort to sly cheap shots by any means necessary.

It's get forgotten about but I remember the game he sledged Cory Paterson about his depression.

For all the things he did on the field that was the lowest.

The pile on has started

bulldog Ritchie says Reynolds or Hynes should have been picked

news corp ratings gives Mitch 4.5/10 and said he had no answers for the defence

junior got a 3/10

As soon as you said news corp you lost me. Wouldn’t know their arse from their elbow. So many unlikeable people in one place

Tough Teddy call must be made amid fresh flop; Moses misfires as beast delivers: Hoops’ NSW ratings

I chucked the towel in with 30 minutes to go

 

[T-Boon]

With Moseseses knock on at the play the ball there was a defenders hand on the ball. It should have been a penalty. I could be wrong.

In an ideal world, there would be a collective that did 1-10 ratings on articles by so called "journalists" like Hooper.

That battler would deadset have not bettered 1.5 out of 10 for anything he's ever done in print or on TV. Absolute imposter
