I for one dislike origin. It ruins to many games in the NRL.
If we did win our next two going into the bye it would breathe some life into our season. But imagine Moses gets picked. It would kill off any hope what so ever.
No side is unbeatable this season. It is a weak comp. If we can get our shit together we can go on a run.
Origin has never been the same since the Welsh banker whatever his name banned the punch.
It wasnt that players wouldn't be binned for fighting anyway that generally happened most of the time but in origin they gave a bit of leeway.
But with every origin growing up at school the excitement was the anticipation there might be a fight at anytime is what excited the casual league viewer to watch Origin and those not heavily invested in the NRL.
Now the anticipation of the fight is gone.
Players dont want to do it and let there team mates down because its an automatic 10 mins.
The refs used to let them get it out of the system and play on.
Now its 10 mins and players dont want to risk it.
