lol @ the end when we had one last glimer of hope in last 15 seconds and despite the 3 calls to let go he still did not penelize them (the game woulda ended anyway i guess).

Ah well i guess payback for the 10 meter boost he gave us for the scrum :p grats qld

Buderus's Origin career after game three is over I feel. I don't think NSW drop him for the final game, though I can't see him holding his spot over Farrah in 2008. He didn't offer anything creatively leaving it all to his halves.

Well, what a night! We go back to back and assert our dominance well and truly over NSW! :)

Petero Civoniceva was great, my man of the match pipping Cameron Smith. I wouldn't argue if Smith gets it.

Darren Lockyer looked out of sorts tonight, is he 100% Brisbane fans?

Brett Kimmorley was not the problem, stop looking for a scapegoat NSW fans. He tried valliantly at halfback in a losing side. Your forwards were disappointing again, there is your issue, not Kimmorley.

Jamie Lyon - a former rep player after tonight surely.

Graham Murray's use of his bench was way off again. He was outcoached by Mal Meninga.

Clean sweep? Our first since Fatty's unknowns - the likelyhood is well in our favour after the 160 minutes of football NSW have dished up.

Dear oh dear, lets get rid of the whole team eh. Gotta have replcements that are better, problem is we just don't have the cattle to match Qld atm.

Forward pack does need a shake up. Hindmarsh, Kite, White all should go.

Halves are woeful but who do we have that will do any better? Now the series is lost they should recall Mullen for the third because Gower isn't the answer. A new 5/8th wouldn't hurt either. Probably play Mullen at 5/8th where he is better suited.

The centres are a tricky one. Cooper is by far the best centre in the comp but saw no ball tonight. Lyon just gets lots in defence. The left side defence is woeful and King isn't much better.

Bad times for NSW with no sign of the light at the end of the tunnel.

Kite & Bailey, two soft serves if ever I seen one, I mean what front rowers start side stepping at the line?

Bailey....better keep your jersey, it'll definitely(though knowing selectors not likely) be your last.
.

Lyon....f**k the hell off. Walks into Roos, walks into origin after a few years bludging in ESL....you been found out fatso, youre a nuffy.

im sorry bailey out? We were at our best with mason and bailey on the field. white and kite are sh*t tho, they should go. Bird was crap in limited game time

Good effort from stewart tonight but Minichello is another class ahead of him.

Would've been nice to have gasnier out there tonight as well

Cooper was fine i thought.

Kimmorley and Anasta played ok for now, better than mullen. Wouldnt mind anasta at lock tho.

Pick rylez and o'meley next game please, lets see what they can do.

Oh and murray has got to go

First of all the coach has to go, they we're a disorganised rabble out there. What we're they doing all week? Circle jerks?

Lyon, Kite and Anasta should never play origin again. White was dissapointing, i thought Mason played great the second half. Hindy and Ryan tackled there arses off. Bird and Stewart we're great on debut. We had more than enough ball to win 2 games, QLDS defense was outstanding.

I dont think the refereeing had anything to do with the loss if that is what some of you are insinuating. Qld were given 1 penalty all night, and there was definately some questionable marker defence and a couple of high shots that the commentators were mentioning.

On Ray warren- lol. "Brett stewart has diabetes", "he takes insulin and glucose everywhere he goes" , and he went on a bit about it trying to build him up. He wasn't the game winner the Rabs wanted, but played very well anyway.

What i thought was utter sh*t was Rabs and co trying to explain the game for melbournians. There wont be any watching because of the delay and lack of commitment from there piece of sh*t network. It seemed much like a token gesture for all the viewers down south.

Noddy, Stewart and Cooper had good games the rest were average at best.

Matty King was woeful
Mason was soft in large patches then great in small patches
Hindmarsh once again not enough game time (Murrays fault)


Kimmorleys kicks found space, repeat sets, had plenty of hang time on his bombs. He can only do so much. F*ck if he played half that good for cronulla we would have won alot more games.

Kimmorley played well, he did pretty much all that was asked of him, there were some ordinary team decisions though. And he was nowhere to be found on certain 5th tackles.

Mason was soft to start, but to call him soft overall....He was one of our best on field, absolutely enormous in the 2nd half.

I agree, i thought he was the standout in terms of effort, and his kicks were brilliant. Considering QLD have a plethora of kickers/playmakers and noddy had to play alongside catnasta, he did amazingly well.
