2025 Origin 2 - Wed 18 Jun - NSW 24-26 QLD @ Optus

[Vlad59]

NSW walked in and expected to win. Played like clowns and got penalised accordingly. Now need to play football.

 

[Bazal]

Not sure who's worse, NSW or Kleinkampf. If Origin is gonna be a curated TV product, might as well wrap it all up now.

QLD would still be winning but far out

 

[TroyJax]

WTF is happening here?!

Spencer Leniu getting boshed all over the shop

He ain’t that good all the hype can never be matched.

 

[shiznit]

Even though blues are playing shyte. When was the last time you saw 8-0 penalty count in SOO

I mean you got one team eye gouging and elbowing guys in the head… I’d say 8-0 has been pretty well earned…

 

[mxlegend99]

I’m still getting over the forward pass in the play before the nsw try. Should be 20 nil

The full time penalty count will be.

 

[Pugzley]

That Cleary try should have been ruled a try but other than that, NSW have been ordinary.

 

[moffla]

The quality of this game might be dogshit but QLD have handled it perfectly. Forget the refereeing, this is playing out exactly to plan for them.

Typical NSW, folding once more.

 

[Cowboyz]

All these wankers here crying about the ref forgetting about the eye gouge and elbow in the face. Shut the f**k up

 

[T-Boon]

horrible game like game 1, origin is dead

It isnt. The spectacle was good last year with good ball play etc. The problem is Laurie Daley is a horrid coach and he also has a really boring "game plan". Strange given the type of player he was.

 

[Loose Cannon]

Bears need to recruit better than that which is on show tonight.

 

[Maximus]

Mate just because you don’t understand how one sided this refereeing is doesn’t mean you have to have a massive sook about it being pointed out.

You mean like not sending a guy off for eye gouging? And another complaint is that Lomax should have been able to elbow a bloke in the head because they held on too long. If you don't want to be ridiculed, maybe be less obviously biased.

 

[aqua_duck]

Regardless of who’s getting the penalties, the fact anyone considers Klein the top ref in the game is a sad reflection on the reffing hierarchy

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

Some fans and media need to give Billy Slater head after the shit he has copped for selecting this team

Now is MY TIME

 

[Canard]

Eye gouging, head highs, elbows to the head.

NSW fans "The ref!!"

 

[Munky]

Not sure who's worse, NSW or Kleinkampf. If Origin is gonna be a curated TV product, might as well wrap it all up now.

QLD would still be winning but far out

It has been curated as a TV product.

Hence the decider in three weeks.

 

[TroyJax]

Why wasn’t Luai sent for that gouge?

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

Even though blues are playing shyte. When was the last time you saw 8-0 penalty count in SOO

Just don't be scum thugs babes

 

[Marshall_magic]

I’ve seen some dogshit nsw performances over the years but this is right up there. Sadly the penalty count will be a convenient excuse but it’s been earned.

 

[This Year?]

Origin gives me a chance to forget about the useless plodders that I have to cheer for week to week.
Then of course the Blues had to play like them!

 

[Canard]

Penalties 7 nil at one stage lol

Which one of the eye gouges or elbows to the head did you think shouldn't be penalties?
