2024 Origin I - Wed 5 Jun - NSW 10-38 QLD @ Accor

[Marshall_magic]

The bloke who is so shit at fighting that he single-handedly got violence banned from origin needs to shut up

Took the shots well, you’d think 3 unblocked punches to the head would mess you up, but Myles was left in better condition than most hotel corridors

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Memba’ when White put that halfback career ending grub Price to sleep?

[Chins get the wins]

I love how when NSW lose it's because they didn't select the right players. It's never because Queensland were better on the night. It's all down to dud selections. The people who wank on about the wrong team being selected are the first to say Queenslanders are dumb.

It begs the question.

If New South Welshmen are so smart, why are their selectors so much dumber than the ones from Queensland?

That was QLDs worst performance in years, NSW biggest winning margin should have been blown away

Qld have the biggest winning margin (46 in 2015). NSW have the highest score (56 in 2000).

But to your point. Yes, QLD should have put more on the board.

 

[TroyJax]

Oh, well that changes everything. Thank you for the history lesson Nate, remember to take your hotel key with you when you leave the room next time you animal.

It just shows you don’t know what you are talking about.

Lmao do they get any benefit scoring more points ?

this could be another series whitewash and slater is a genius, this could be another long run of qld series wins

They kinda cruised along but it was 20-10 and NSW were doing ok

They could have wiped Suaalii with a 12-week suspension or something as punishment.

And how the hell does that benefit QLD when they lose their fullback?
NSW obviously went in with a plan to try and rattle up Walsh. They rolled the dice and lost.

As a Queenslander, I don't give a flying f**k if you, or any other New South Welshman enjoyed the game. If McGuire was a coaches asshole, he could have tried to adapt his game plan to defend with 12.
A clever coach could have defended with the fullback (you know the one that they had who wasn't illegally knocked out of the game) up in the line.*

* A really clever one could have relied on their super fast winger Addo Carr to get back and cut off any deep kicks. Or Burton's massive boot to keep turning the Maroons around. But you select who you select and Madge didn't have a team that could deal with that scenario.

 

[Saxon]

It was tackle that went wrong no one goes out to take the players out this isn’t the 70s and 80s anymore…

No, but some lose the plot in the heat of the moment.
I present for your examination one Latrell Mitchell. he doesn't go out there planning to break Manu's jaw or elbow Johnson in the head.

Latrell is a genuine grub

Madge in the press conference discussing the May hit on Walsh in round 3 that fractured his cheekbone and there not being a binning sums it all up really. They felt that they could take him out and at worst they'd get someone thrown in the bin or a penalty. It was such an obvious plan.

That being said I enjoyed maguires short statement this morning covering his arse saying that's preposterous.

What a dunce lmao. Slater dunked on him having Cobbo ready to go.

What about when he said “we prepared for absolutely every scenario” then literally 15 seconds later “we didn’t prepare for that” lol

Have to admit, I didn’t consider that and puts things into perspective. You‘re right. I was just thinking of the game (with its gradually declining ratings) as a spectacle

That was a headclash sweetie. I'm the world's biggest May hater but it's not comparable

I didn't compare it - Madge did

You had me until you suggested the fraud Burton’s one trick bomb could’ve been the solution.

Well, my point was many diehard QLD supporters I had around me didn't enjoy the game. 12vs13 for 70 mins doesn't matter who you select. I concede that QLD shouldn't be penalised for losing their fullback though, and there's really no good solution so better a sendoff I suppose.

 

[Parra Pride]

Because no one wants to watch one of the biggest matches 12v13 from the 8th minute. No one. Not even Cam Smith thought it should have been a send-off due to the circumstances of the match.

I tell you what if the roles were reversed and a NSW player got hit I'd still want a sin bin and a penalty. What did QLD prove tonight? They can beat 12vs13 no f**king shit.

They could have wiped Suaalii with a 12-week suspension or something as punishment.

Cam Smith was one of the dirtiest merkins to play the game of course that piece of shit doesn’t think taking opposing players out of the game should be a send off.
