I still think that Cleary and Moses would be awesome together as long as they can get out of each others way. Luai off the bench.

Not sure either offers enough if they aren't kicking for 500m. Given Luai's bum club next year will be running last then it is the likely option.

NSW look the stronger line-up and (with Madge fanning the flames) will be keen to avenge the Game 1 loss by winning the series in enemy territory. Saying that, Qld are favourites - which means NSW are, in fact, the underdogs.

Then there's the Klein factor-

He'll be lenient on Qld for the first half (at leas)- letting the Maroons defenders stand a metre offside, charge out of the defensive line early to smash the Blues player with the ball, lay all over NSW in tackles and take their time. The crowd will love it and the commentators will wank themselves into a frenzy about how "Origin never ceases to deliver" so it will give the impression of being a fair dinkum application of the rules.

Some point in the second half, Klein will start piggybacking NSW to even up the penalty tally so the stat nerds can pretend it was a legit contest. The question is can the Blues hang in long enough for the tide to inevitably turn- and do enough with the ball and territory to get the win?
That stood the test of time we’ll👍🏻👏👏👏

His last NRL game was no different, mouthing off at the ref to "Use his f**king eyes merkin" when a call didn't go Melbourne's way.

As I said in an earlier comment, all those years having it gift-wrapped to him at the Storm and Qld have gone to his head...
Watching him getting booed all through it after having his dick sucked the whole week not long after his farcical man of the series award was the cherry on top.

On top of his farcial let-off for the shoulder charge in the prelim against Cronulla so Billy didn't miss out on his special day

Then Munster grubbed it up and got sin-binned twice as the GF slipped away from them. Latrell made Chambers his bitch that night as well. Was great fun to watch, and I have no love for the Roosters...

So he scored a try last night, so did Bradman Best. He also couldn’t catch a cold last night. Luai out performed Moses last night easily. Cleary walks back into the Origin team next year.He is the best player in the game. If Moses was that good he would’ve won something at club level by now.

Hows that going for the down hill skier. Only goes good in a good team.

The only salty people are the butthurt Panthers fans who just watched a superior halfback dominate in a way that Cleary never has.

Yes. I must of imaged Cleary's 24 point haul 2 years ago in Origin

Or when NSW wrapped the series up in 2021. The 2 games he played for a score of 76-6... The whole series played in QLD, So even the BS he can't in QLD is fuelled purely by salty fans.

That isn't even counting the Brad Fittler medal winner year. Or being equal on Origin points with Joey. Not to mention a 7 with a 50% win rate in Origin... so again take the salt away and the career is far from a dud
