State of Origin 2025

[Beavers Headgear]

How dumb from Aussie Rugby to have a Lions game on tonight

 

[Thatwasnthighref]

Yea not helpful for them. I dunno how much flexibility the schedule had but this was a clash they could’ve done without.

 

[Blair]

Just looking at Gallen I don't want to see him boxing and getting hit.

 

[Blair]

We've had the Origin sage - Gould - in the sheds. That means we're close to kick-off! It's the same every year.

 

[Blair]

Big hit-ups through the middle from both sides.

 

[Blair]

Plenty of gaps for the Blues but two bad options by Mitchell and then Luai stops their momentum.

 

[Penrose Warrior]

Not at all a fan of taking the 2 this early, as tight as it will probably be

 

[Penrose Warrior]

The idea of interviewing a coach in the box mid-game is outrageous to me....

 

[Blair]

Bloody heck, all these years, and NSW are still getting psyched out by Qld.

8-0, nearly twenty mins in.

 

[Penrose Warrior]

Shibasaki gets penalised for not making a genuine attempt on the ball, when he literally looked at it and touched it. Hahaha seen it all now

 

[Blair]

The idea of interviewing a coach in the box mid-game is outrageous to me....

I don't even like going into the sheds! At least we don't have mic'd up players on field, yet.

 

[Blair]

Qld are well on top...

...14-0 now, after a run away try finished by Dearden.

 

[Blair]

Get ready for Spencer!

 

[Blair]

The Blues are dudding out. Nothing's working.

Another strong set resulting in a try before halftime. 20-0, Qld.

Good night, nurse?

 

[Penrose Warrior]

Wow, I don't think I've seen Queensland play a better half. What an incredible 40 minutes. Dearden their best but the rest all did their jobs

 

[Beavers Headgear]

Bring back Jake

 

[Blair]

Wow, I don't think I've seen Queensland play a better half. What an incredible 40 minutes. Dearden their best but the rest all did their jobs.

The classic case where they didn't want the halftime whistle to sound.

The Blues are dreadful but we know a ten minute break, a blast from the coach, and switching ends, can change things. They must be the first to score though, you'd think. And early.

 

[Penrose Warrior]

It'll be 20-10 real soon, watch

 

[Penrose Warrior]

There's your proof Klein is going to do all he can to get NSW back in it. Latrell F'ed that up

 

[Blair]

It'll be 20-10 real soon, watch.

The Maroon defence is hanging on. The Blues have had plenty of posession but don't look like breaking them open.

... until now. Crichton scores out wde. Lomax converts. 20-6, seventeen mins left. Comeback on?

...no. Dearden seals it. 24-6, game nearly over.

...To'o with a late consolation. 24-12, Qld. Final.

Queensland win series 2-1.
