Greatest Origin Tries - NSW

[b&wdynamite]

As a dedicated Qlder I have always grown up knowing that the best origin tries over the last 25 years have been scored by us mighty Cane Toads. For mine the top 4 tries would be (in no particular order):

1. Billy Slater chip and chase 2004
2. Mark Coyne right foot step 1994
3. Wally Lewis in the corner 1989
4. Greg Dowling off the crossbar 1985

But this has led me to wonder what the cockroaches believe their greatest origin tries over the past 25 years are. I know that the media in each state is skewed to give a biased opinion in favour of their respective state, so I am wondering what the NSW fans think?

Cheers

QLD by 12 tonight

Mark McGaw - 1987 Final Game

I think it was 2000 with Robbie Ross? After 30 seconds I think it was Daley and Fittler who threw it wide and Girdler made a break, drew the fullback and passed to Ross.

Another was the first game of 2002 I think, Brett Hodgson scored a near length of the field try from an Andrew Johns inside ball.

I a Blue through and through but $2 coin's try was as heartbreaking as it was memorable. It gets my vote.

that was 1999 game 2, they scored after 45 secs. That record was broken game 3 2001 by Girdler.
Daley retired from rep football in 1999.

Favourite as a Blues supporter - Fittler last year
Most hated as a Blues supoorter - Carlaw 2002

 

[fat_mike]

favourite was definetly freddy's charge down
try on par with carlaw and coyne's in the heartbreak dept. would be tonnie carroll crashing over in the dying minutes at the SFS in 1998. all set up by chip and chase from walters onto ikin. i was at the game which made it even more hard to watch.

did you watch the game, he a barrett combined superbly. gave outside backs plenty of ball and they were both great

 

[Big_Bad_Shark_Fan]

does anyone remember a game at stadium aus and nsw scored (1999-2001ish) a try that must of gone through 30 sets of hands. it started on one side, then went to the other, then came back to the other, everyone was just passing it round. dunno who ended up scoring.

it might of lead to the bryan fletcher grenade post try celebration im not sure. but whatever it was near the end of the match and it was a great one.

All of them, they are against QLD.

Daley stepping the whole Qld side with both knees heavily strapped to score adjacent to the posts. Beautiful to watch.

being a raiders fan i was gonna say that one
with 2 dogey knee's, he steped half the QLD team off both feet. Great solo effort

 

[Mr Saab]

yeah that Daley try was great game 3 1994.

You shoulda heard the NZ commentary of that play by Graeme Hughes

"Daley...one, two there, four, FIIIIIIIIIVE....TRY NUMBER 2"!!

it's like he previously knew Daley was gonna step all 5.
