2024 Origin III - Wed 17 Jul - QLD 4-14 NSW @ Suncorp

[Munky]

Have you considered the fact they're Queenslanders

Are they though?

You never know.

 

[Captain Apollo]

Was Christian Welch fit?

One of the great effort players and would have pressured the kicking game all night.

If NSW can select Jurbo then Welch would do a job for QLD.

Especially when you consider Slater used Kaufusi for 16 minutes in the entire match. As such is it any wonder so many of the Qld forwards were gassed in the backend of the game.

Slater's interchange strategy was daft.

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

Billy Slater does not get Origin.

Outstanding!! That was delightful for sure. Had about 21 schooners challenging Kenty sans the aggression.

I’ll apologise to Penny fans Yeo was great tonight. Glad he pulled the finger out and killed it.

Go easy on the trees tonight, bud

Jurbo comes off the bench to accept the trophy

His jersey was pristine for the presentation.

Where's your QLD spirits now Furston?

It's insanity.

For four and a half years Edwards and To'o have ground opposition forwards to dust.

If your middle rotation is flawed the game will be lost.

No way a tired prop or hooker is slowing their PTBs after the sixtieth minute.

 

[Bazal]

Don;t love the bicep tear. But I do love seeing Lolmax and Moses having a grand old time together in the sheds. That could be a serious partnership for the next few years.

Or seriously chaotic, so I win either way

2021 - anyone would have dominated that game when they had Latrell, Tom and Tedesco out the back.

2022 - they were average together.

2023 - it was much the same.

Game 2 2022. NSW win 44-12 Cleary is man of the match is them average together?

 

[Chins get the wins]

I didn't think anyone currently playing in the NRL could match Latrell at fullback but Walsh might actually been an even worse defender!

Teddy and Freddy were the issue

 

[King hit]

stats nerds, when was the last time QLD didn’t score a try at Suncorp?

Game 2 2021

 

[Bgoodorgoodatit]

Are they though?

You never know.

Mate there’s no one more Qlder than the western Australian kiwi…

and more importantly Ff**k YERRR NSW.. this is a f**king sweet one

QLD were just too tired in those last 25 minutes to flop two and three into completed tackles and mess around in the ruck like they had been all game, and it all fell apart. Klein put in a top momentum sapping performance and they completely let him down. Too bad so sad.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Wtf did Tigers do to this legend. Basket case club

IM not gunna pretend that coaching the tigers isnt the hardest gig in the game, however I think these days theres two seperate coaches. Rep Coaches and Club Coaches. Madge to me is the perfect rep coach. Hes great for a short campaign with good players who he doesnt need to improve their skillset. The fulltime intensity gets too much over a whole year. You just have to look at his ending at souths. Missing 2 finals series with the likes of INglis, Burgess, Crichton, Reynolds, Cook, Walker etc. They sack him and then make the next 6 prelims.

I mean Craig Bellamy lost 3 Origin Series in a row to Mal Meninga LOL

They picked an awful bench

Mate have you seen Will Kennedy?

 

[Anon]

QLD 0 tries in 80 minutes

QLD two tries in three games 13 v 13

 

[Apey]

Kinda hurts seeing Barnett fulfilling the potential I knew he had when he was with us, but when you fall out with Ricky that’s the end of your Raiders career.

He was up and down with us too, I think he's just got better with age. More consistent and almost completely removed the bonehead plays from his game.
