Origin II - Match discussion

[Feej]

Jamie Lyon is a myth.

They pretty much left Thurston alone as well. I only noticed pressure on him a couple of times. I'd be happy for NSW to give away a penalty or two to knock him around after he kicks in general play, just so he's got one eye out for the big hit everytime he goes to kick thereafter.

So it wasn't a forward pass then, was it? :roll: You're telling me that if it was the other way round and and NSW won off a Kimmorley forward pass you wouldn't say a word?

The pass was forward, shouldn't of been a try and should've been 6 all with 11 minutes remaining.

Happy?

However I find it hilarious how you can predict that, although the entire game has changed, Price will give away the same penalty and give the Blues the chance to win the game. Had QLD not scored that try whats from stopping them later in the game? They were in NSW's half and QLD could've forced a Blues mistake and Maroons may of scored under the posts to make it 12-6 for all we know.

As someone pointed out, although the call was a disgrace, the fact that you whinge about it is so predictable yet hilarious. ;-)

Priceless. :lol:

We are also a big man short ... For game 2 if loyalty was no issue, I would seriously have chosen Scott Logan on the bench ... but at the start of the series probly Ross should have been on the bench

We also have Matt Scott and Sam Thaiday sitting on the sidelines who'd be good coming off the bench, Michael Crocker and Antonio Kafusi too make it a very promising future for the Maroons.

How about the cheap shot on bird by costigan bloody cheap shot merchant...

He is all SOO though...

 

[Big Pete]

I never really rated Costigan, often gets too fiery and forgets how to play football. But he seems to be a very solid Origin player.

I didn't see the cheap shot, unless you're refering to the last 30 seconds Y2Eel?
