Billy Slater and DCE "We didn't get the rub of the green."

Billy on QLD: It's Origin we need to be aggressive.
Billy on NSW: Reece Walsh was hit off the ball.

They honestly believe that the Referee cost them the game.

I'm guessing he didn't complain about the blatant knock on that ended with QLD kicking their goal?

Klein was shit, but he didn't cost them the game.

Probably kept them in it. I swear at least 2 of their players fell asleep whilst lieing on the tackled player.

Gee how munch fun is it to hear Queenslanders squeal in the morning.

Oh yeah the ref cost them. They hit the far can lead at 4 to 2 off three straight penalties.

And what about this one ... how about when Klien pulled up the blues long range counter attack to have the bunker check on a possible penalty try to Precious Walsh when he (Walsh) ran into the back of Luia only 30 BLOODY METRES FROM THE BLUES TRY LINE. .... it was a genius refereeing call.

The decision, no penalty play on.

How much was Qld allowed to lay all over NSW? I mean they eventually got pinged for it but not till well into the 2nd half. Was a good tough game of footy, Klein & co tried to ruin it. They gotta have a night out too I guess. Gonna be a great few weeks living in Qld. Cheers.

I noticed it from the first set.
Every tackle they just laid all over them for an eternity.

The powers that be obviously didn't want on open, expansive game for fear of the Blues running up another score.

Anyway, pharque Klein and pharque Qld.

Ass soon as the heat got turned up, Billy melted.
I was surprised by that - always struck me as a man of steel.
Probally go back to the couch at Channel 9 and make bulldust comments like Fittler and “there’s an Origin moment” Johns.
Seriously, a magpie could have landed on the Suncorp turf last night and he would have dropped and Origin moment comment.

This is all hilariously good!

So Billy isn’t going to be the next ‘immortal’ after all?!?!?

Let the squealing continue, long may it prosper.

I've just done some quick maffs and I reckon it is about 10 and a 1/2 months till the next State of 'O' game.

Will they ever whinge out I don't think so.

The State the gave us The Grasshopper have to gall to complain / squeal / bitch about the refereeing.

I'm actually surprised that the general Qld support base who I interact with actually haven't whinged about anything and realise that NSW was the better team. Which makes Slater look like even more of a little bitch.
Yeah - my Queensland mates have been strangely accepting of the fact that NSW actually deserved to win…

Maybe NSW need to win the next 2-3 series to really rile them up (and get Slater sacked).
 

Frenzy.

Great game of footy. Best I've watched this year by a long way.

I think he's under pressure to be sacked now. How didn't he pick Fifita? That big eggplant would have made a big difference to them when they needed penetration

I reckon he’s been reading his own press…
He won’t get sacked this year, but if they lose again next year the pressure will come.

Mate you are dealing with a state here that thinks 'Our Kevvie' is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Billy is in the same boat.
Yeah - I know - I live in QLD as well!

My wife is a Queenslander (originally NQ), but we did spend 11 years in NSW…

My brother-in-law was over tonight - kept bangin’ on about ‘Cameron Murray shoulda been sent off’ blah blah…

I told him that there were QLD bench players involved in the scuffle as well. Should the ref have sent off the whole QLD bench, as well?
He wouldn’t listen..

EDIT: Just re-watched - Mo Fotuaika and Felise Kaufusi definitely get involved with contact to the NSW players.

It's his "work off the ball" which is reportedly the issue.
If you watch the Tits it's hard to argue.
Yes he makes some good runs, but in between he just ambles around in the background.
Zero effort, and not the sort of thing you're looking for at SOO level, IMHO.
