State of Origin 2024

So they could rough Walsh up on first kick and then his head taken off by the union player of the future who gets to sit down for the rest of the game.
Walsh won't be seen for 12 days!

 

[Beavers Headgear]

Big couple of weeks from Moses and Hynes could be in some strife

Real letdown of a game, bright side is I can go to bed early after seeing Olakau’atu get some time

 

[Beavers Headgear]

What a germ Nate Myles is getting in Suaalii’s ear as he headed to the sheds, coaching stuff should be keeping their traps shut to opposition players

Great to have the Channel 9 build up, prefer them over Fox. Never mind seeing Danika Mason on the screen either

My TV's on the blink. It's like being back in the 1970s!

20-6, Qld. Halftime. That's reasonably OK for NSW after a shaky start.

 

[Blair]

This is a frightful blow-out at home.

Poor Madge but maybe he's just not good enough? Cleary is a huge loss though.

32-10, Qld. Still time to rack up forty!

Edit: 38-10, Qld. Final. The ABC is talking up the Blues' performance! One man down, and still in the hunt at 20-10, is why I suppose.

It's still a disaster for NSW.

Close your eyes on Lockyer and Hunt interview and try to guess whose talking!

He lost a player for 72mins of game, hard to judge Madge on that.
Qld completion poor, would have been interesting if NSW hadn't lost their man (deservedly)

You missed your no1 man DCE with a beautiful intercept with a pin perfect kick for a try, all at speed and under pressure.

Lip reading he said "f**k off to union."

I don't know whether my mum was right but she said they"ve had too many knocks to the throat. There's a couple of other husky dudes getting around the NRL too.

Always had zero class that bloke. No idea what Tessa James saw in him. Such a weak act to sledge someone like that

Might go longer than Cliffy did, go on the Manly forums though and he is an ordinary player lol

 

[Beavers Headgear]

Billy Slater ‘seething’ at Suaalii

Cmon Billy, don’t be a hypocrite, that play wasn’t as ordinary as your and Crockers effort in the 2007 GF, and you used to kick guys in the head

After Manly cut him he went travelling and put a photo up with “thanks bozo” at every location lol. Classier than shitting in the hallway though

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

Myles being the classless one and not the Union-bound coward decapitating one of the opposition’s star players is an interesting take on things. I’d say some mean words was a pretty gentle punishment.

 

[Beavers Headgear]

I’d say calling someone a coward for a split second timing issue that went wrong is probably a more interesting take

 

[Matua]

I just watched the clip after reading about it on various forums. Different than what I expected to see.

Walsh was dipping. I was expecting to see Suali'i leaping into the air like Superman to take his head off.

 

[Meth]

Suaalii deserved to be sent. NSW obviously went out there trying to bash Walsh and they sailed too close to the line. Play with fire, get burnt.

Beyond that, AGAIN, NSW have cocked up their game 1 team and now will spend the rest of the series trying to get the recipe right. The series is gone and it's such a familiar script. Trbojevic is not a prop. He's just fat. McInnes at 13 was a WTF selection, as was Hudson Young. And yeah, unfortunately, Hynes kicking game was awful.

So, Tedesco, Suaalii, Hynes, McInnes, Hudson Young out. Edwards, Burton, Moses, Koroisau, Barnett in for mine.

 

[RHYTHM AND STEALTH]

I love Madge
Love what he did for the Kiwis
But he was out coached by a part timer last night. It took about 4 line breaks down the blues right side before a change was made and Crichton shifted from the left.
Olokauato is a weapon yet Madge kept that flop Angus Crichton on for a lot of minutes and only played his captian for 20 minutes, why even play him?? Where as Slater did so good with his interchange and tactics.

Game was a 5 outta 10
Blues in trouble again lolz

 

[Big Marn]

remind me never to bet unders on the total score, if players are going to be sent off after 7 minutes.... lol.
