Origins a drag on the Comp

Yeah and imagine splattering the headlines wall to wall in a three week block!

Very few people in this thread want to deplete Origin. Calls for it to be better balanced in the modern NRL where the season proper is so much longer and more valuable aren't "sooking". Ratings aside this was the most boring Origin series in years dominated by Klein doing his best to ruin the spectacle - which if anything demonstrates people will still watch it.
It is not just three games. It’s a phenomenon that carries all before it for weeks on end. That’s why it rates so well. But you and your little sooky mates keep sooking away. It’s all you are good for.

Mate, I'm just trying to have a reasonable conversation. You're the one calling everyone who disagrees with you a sook and whatever other names. If you believe Origin is perfect, there's really no need to comment. If you don't, then you have about the same stance as I do. I'm just interested in whether there are ways to make changes that will benefit both Origin and the proper season

If you want to get into a name calling contest, I'm a lot more inventive than you.

Mate I’m just trying to make reasonable points about how strong our brand is and one of the biggest reasons is origin.
Mate I didn’t say the current version is perfect so mate stop putting words in my mouth.
And mate stop being a bloody sook.

Still sooking about the loss? Your lads were terrible. Those panther boys do origin really badly don’t they? Great win to QLD wasn’t it? Massive crowd. Massive tv ratings. A marketing dream. Oh and a bunch of sooks here whinging about it!

I'm so keen for the Ashes series, yet it seems like we couldn't give a shit atm. We haven't got a coach or anything booked in yet. I'm just glad the English are taking it seriously.
Maybe they can offer Slater the Kangaroos job and Kevin Walters can get his old gig back with Qld? He has plenty of passion so I'm sure they'll be fine...

And I didn't say you did, I posed a hypothetical. So congratulations, we both agree that Origin is a big advantage. I just believe it could be better integrated into the season to make that stronger, too. If you don't, then that's fine, but I don't see the need to carry on like a small child and constantly spray schoolyard insults about it.

The only person sooking here is you tbh. You seem to have a significant personal problem with someone not fully agreeing with you. Have a whiskey or a joint, chill the f**k out.

Oh yes you did. Read your own words. And stop being a sook!

I think you need to read my own words:

If is a two letter word. I realise that you have a maroon avatar but I'd suggest even the blokes picking up used cigarette butts at the Dalby bus station understand what it means. Do you?

You seem a bit hung up on this point. I’d move on if I were you. Sook.

You raised it, little fella. It's ok if you misread it, the fact you can type up to five letter words is a huge step up over most Queenslanders.

Your deflection is noted, though.

Eventually I hope rugby league scraps Origin and focuses on the growth of the international game with countries v countries, to overtake Yawnion as the real rugby that most people know. Make that a priority instead of putting so much promotion and effort into a rivalry between only two states that one state seems to care about more than the other.

Bit triggered now hey? Sook

You're having quite a tantrum over this Origin thing aren't you?

Fancy rushing to die on a hill where you at least claim to agree with the core concept. And then calling everyone else a sook while actively crying that they don't agree with you. It's pretty funny

So over one million Sydney television viewers and a sold out stadium demonstrates a lack of care in NSW? Wow this thread just gets dumber.
