Nov 11 2020: State of Origin GAME 2

[Happy MEel]

Been a top shelf player but his head injuries are mind f**king the poor bloke and his technique in defence is awful.

Agreed, he was a sensational player. Unfortunately he’s just not that player anymore.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

His enthusiasm is infectious

I'm quite partial to him.

 

[Suitman]

Lol. No
Cleary is 2 x the player at moment. His kicking game is so much better.

Cleary's kicking game is generally rubbish.
He's having a good game tonight.

He’s regressed more than Hindy in his later years. At least Hindy was still a great defender until the very end.

Moses is too erratic and still somewhat immature. Cleary is calmer and mentally stronger.

Better defender, kicking game and thats what need from a halfback.

No. He has the best kicking game in the comp. It is his strongest point.
He lacks creativity in attack. Bit robotic.

 

[Suitman]

Gutho - Defence has been enormous. Not many attacking opportunities.

Paulo - looked great in his few minutes.
Needs more time on the field!!!

 

[hindy111]

I actually really like the guy. Met him a couple of times and a true gentleman. But I think he should retire altogether. He’s still young and has the rest of his life ahead of him. Footy is not worth not being able to remember your kids names at 40

Ch 9 will find him a job.

Certainly lacks creativity in attack.
His kicking game is hot and cold. It was terrible in the first SOO last week.

I see your point brother. No doubt he is a very good player but I think people are getting too quickly to the vinegar stroke with this guy. It just annoys me that we have a 7 with all the skills yet he had a shit year when we needed him to step up.

 

[hindy111]

Payne Haas for mine was sensational.
Gagai has been Qlds best. He'd be a great pick up.

 

[TheParraboy]

Can anyone honestly say we’re missing Cordner? He’s a bit of a slug these days and odds on for a HIA. I think it’s time to retire (at least from rep footy).

I reckon he will retire

Some noise coming out that he should at least take a year off

 

[TheParraboy]

The Menulog ad is a hoot LOL

Who knows. Moses tries to hard. I think our useless centres plus 2nd rowers who don't really break the line force Moses and D Brown to force things a little. Nathan just has to feed it to Crichton or Kikau or Martin or Yeo or Naden or Too. Get them the ball with some space and a line break.

We don't have these guys. Manu was a huge loss in that regard. We need some players who can bust the line when one on one.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Disappointing crowd. Looks like I wasn't the only one who forgot the footy was on.

Is anyone else thinking about emigrating to Canada?? Best ad on the forums so far
