2025 Origin 2 - Wed 18 Jun - NSW v QLD @ Optus

[Reflector]

There is so much butthurt in this post
It makes me smile to think of how much he has upset you over the years.
He is rich as well…and has a hot wife .

So being rich and having a hot wife means you're a decent bloke and beyond criticism aye?


Interesting take there...

Seems the love for Billy is strong amongst the bitter blues and jealous non melbourne supporters.

Go Banana

The whole thing smells of a premediated plan to make himself the victim.

Get badel to ask that specific question so Billy can take a moral high ground approach.

Its okay Billy your not perfect just embrace who you were as a player a dirty player who pushed the limits to the extreme its what made you so great and so unlikeable.

Thats why i have respect for Cameron Munster he may be a pest/grub on the field but he at least embraces it in the media and knows he is.

Billy never was able to accept it as a player always the victim and made of Teflon.

He purposely stomped on a downed man's head, that says everything.

LOL I disagree. Does she still have the same haircut as he does?

Anyone remember this doozy?:

Austin gives a fan a ride to the game in pouring rain, so Billy not to be outdone decides to give homeless people food and then post it on social media with a hashtag of #SilentAct lmao.

Attention seeking wanker.

If QLD kick away from Spencer again tonight then I'm ready to call time on Origin.

It's not meant to be a sport for cowards. It was embarrassing to our country with a huge international audience watching on. QLD are destroying the fabric of Australia.

Please Billy, for the love of god, please don't mention Alex McKinnon if there is a high tackle on any QLDER tonight.

Nope, just adding to your woes.

Show us your wife.

 

[Maximus]

Show us your wife.

Billy, shouldn't you be preparing for the game?

 

[Rudy]

Wait...You're that Rudy?

Nah JK I lived in Penang not Thailand. Although I do philosophise after a dozen scotches

You have a very similar writing style. A big part of my career is to judge how well other people write, so I guess that's why I made mention of it.

Penang looks like a paradise. I presented my research at a conference in KL, but should have spent an extra week in Malaysia to check things out up north.

Sizing up the 2 teams NSW have it all over QLD in every metric. The only ways for QLD to win are :

to slow down the ruck speed to a crawl and hope that Klein ignores it.

to get at least something like 58% or more possession

Klein going on a set restart/penalty/sin bin blitz against NSW

QLD don’t have many ways to score. A cross field bomb to Coates from Munster/Dearden , a Dearden dummy , or some Hammer magic is about it. Three quarters of their spine are in poor form. Hammer should be fullback supporting up the middle of the field not limited to the wing. Fermor should be there to help shut down S.Crichton but was dropped. Ponga should come off the bench for impact. Will be interested to see if making Munster captain sparks an improvement in his form.

Will be interested to see how Klein referees this match compared with a club game. I have to give Adam Gee a wrap for his handling of the Bulldogs/Souths match last Sunday. Eighteen and a half minutes before a set restart and 23 minutes before a penalty. Was great to see the teams in an arm wrestle for almost 10 minutes before the Bulldogs scored a try that they earned. This is how league should look going forward. None of this penalty/set restart/set restart/try sequence which makes a mockery of this great game.

 

[isaiah]

it seems obvious to me that there will be changes before the start. Horsburgh has to be in the 17

Have to agree. Many players, and many clubs, do a lot of charity work which is not publicised.

For example, Phil Rothfield has said on NRL 360 how the DT had approached the Roosters a number of times to cover some of the charity work that they've been doing, but have been knocked back as the Roosters felt it would have a negative effect on the people they were trying to help.

 

[Chins]

Having Yeo and Haas defending in the middle is almost cheating.

[skeepe]

f**k Slater, the piece of shit.

Tonight is the death knell for his coaching career. A grub on and off the field.

His vendetta against Canberra cost Queensland Papalii, and by excluding Horsburgh now it’s costing them any chance of go forward from that pitiful forward pack.

His rushing back 32-year-old Capewell - who has missed 20 more tackles than any other player this season - is a desperate ploy from a man out of his depth.

Slater’s getting sacked tomorrow. And it’s going to be fantastic.

Been absolutely hammering it down all day here in the West but clouds are finally lifting and even got 5mins of sunshine. About to head out for pre game drinks and hopefully it stays dry for the game!
