QLD are trying to have a forwards battle and are playing right in NSWs hands.

Half Time Prediction.

NSW 30-10

My thoughts exactly. When the match started, I was wondering if there was a crowd at all! Couldn't hear a damn thing. All we get is Rabs commentating, and Hampstead "reffing"

Exactly the same in the 2005 GF.

Great atmosphere at the ground. Watched it thousands of times on replay and thr atmosphere sounds dead as a dog.

I agree. But why did it take so many years of broadcasting for it to happen? Cricket had one like, I dunno, 20 years ago didn't they?

Telstra is massive with noise, hence why 9 need to take soundproofing measures when they do their thing. They want their commentators voices to be heard first and foremost.

My bits from the game,

- not really up to SOO standard, where are the several big hits.
- I love seeing QLD getting done, but I will not count my chickens.
- Mason, Kite and Kings have impressed me.
- I hate Hodges
- Thank god Ryles and Gower aren't out there :)

Have you not been watching? NSW defence has been outstanding.

Beaver Menzies is an absolute freak! He's like a thousand years old, yet still plays as he did in his 20's
DON'T RETIRE, BEAVER. THE GAME NEEDS YOU!

My money is on Mal's rep coaching career to go the way of his political career - he wont last this second 40! ;-)

no, not up to standard, but oh so good to see solid defensive hits, where have they been all these years. me and my little bro used to idolise blokes liek chief and carrol for "those" hits. and end up smashing each other all over the lounge room wanting to be them.

dont discount qld. but at the same time, its a long way up hill fo rthem from here.

mason - someone must have had a word in his ear, he went from wanker to legend in a matter of months
kite - didnt expect him to be up to it, happy to see he is.
hindy - f**king legend
