I thought the NSW bench was not in that area as Cam Murray ran from a distance to get involved (as you would) but bench getting / officials involved is a big no-no in any level NRL especially when it moved back in field of play. Burto might of been hanging around that vicinity at the time. Obviously QLD bench did not got involved when it moved on the field
Cam ran from a distance (warm up bike orbench) and him and Ok when onto the field of play. Obviously QLD bench did not to the same extreme. 9 players in total got charged. Who bloody knows but well done for sticking up for your mates NSW. The pack of dogs got in first in droves.
What about the blatant knock on from the Hammer when Lomax knocked it back from contesting and catching the bomb. They had the rub of the green in the 2nd half so much so I thought they were going to win it that way as it was obvious.
Agree but the players take a bow. What about when Latrell comes back in. One back has to go and could be Lomax as Crichton can slot on the wing and is a better player?..back 5 Edwards, Too, Crichton, Lattrell & Best or can Best only play one side?. What about if T Turbo gets back to Top form next year.
Billy Slater = Sore Loser
This aged beautifully
Fruity is perfect.
They were mentioning on Triple M the other week that the QRL has some control over what Qld the media say about the Origin team. Essentially their message is to back the team no matter what. Which is why you don't see the media criticise Slater or the team selections up there.
There are many ifs and buts TheRev in most games. Thank goodness the good ones helped us in the end in last night's decider. NSW were the victors and they cannot take that away from this State. I don't want to take anything away from all the gallantry of our players and the good coaching of Madge in this series.
Guaranteed no one gets suspended if it’s game one or two. The nrl just use their players for their own financial gain. Now that the series is done they want to punish them. Whole thing should be ignored.
NSW series win in game 2 2018 under Fittler was as good as last night. Winning after coming from behind and holding out with a man in the sin bin and the captain out with concussion with a very inexperienced team was as gutsy as anything I’ve seen in origin. Even though we lost, the decider in 2022 was a very tough effort. Freddy just cops it to hard for mine. Sure you can criticise some things he did but he still won back to back series, won a decider, got us to score 76 points in 2 games in 2021 (despite my bitterness towards that year) and blooded the players who went on to do some great things at rep level with some still doing so.
Not just judging him on SOO and acknowledge he has good years and Yes 2018 was a great comeback (QLD like)..but not in QLD with the series on the line. The overall steel in his teams attack and defence has not been the same as this year. I think Freddy made some not so good reputation selections (happens to all but not sure whether that was because he listened to his media mates too much or surrounded himself with the wrong people). But I am also judging on all his coaching including Roosters and City.
