State of origin series

[Flashstep]

Yeo is doing forward things though.

Tonight 48 tackles 0 misses.
2nd run metres to Haas

It was similar in game 1.

Maybe don't use him so much in attack but need him to keep the ruck solid

Yeo works hard for sure but QLD just shut him down, of course maybe with a decent coach it won’t be an issue but I just think Slater and QLD know how to counter him perfectly.

Murray should be playing more minutes in the middle I think.

 

[Flashstep]

Yeo and Murray should both be playing 70mins in the middle. The issue is Yeo can't be first receiver 90% of the time anymore

Agreed.

 

[Girds89]

Yeo is now doing all Jake's work in the middle

Jake one of the biggest loses..

At full strength nsw probs had the cattle to win.

Turbo being below his best.
Latrell out
Jurbo out
Nath out
Api out

Not picking Spencer

Teddy way out of form and just being done.

Ado Carr so overated.

Hudson young being a plodder

Junior p being about the slowest prop on earth...

Freddie... only has himself to blame..

He didn't have it easy this year but he put himself in this position with bad tactics

He should've started at prop.

Needed his speed..

Freddie trying to play the big power game but origin doesn't work like that...

Minimal 6 agains for slowing down the ruck on the big men

Needed blokes like Murray, Martin, Spencer playing big mins as they win the ruck

 

[Iamback]

And for all of those who cry about Nathan's kicking game Moses did the same in almost every situation

That is what a 7 does, They organise. Very rarely do they have the try assists.

What has DCE done this series?

Naths kicking has been rubbish all year.

Trying to compare him to a 7 that just lost an origin by almost 30 points is silly lol.

Almost proves the point hahaha

 

[Kilkenny]

Mass changes are required for game 3.

Starting with a new coach and a compete new game plan

Maybe Freddie will stay for Game 3, I personally think it may be best for him to stand down gracefully, and allow the new coach whomever that may be the opportunity to make a statement in the dead rubber. No point Freddie making mass changes given he is not going to be coaching the Blues in 2024. May as well allow the incoming coach to make the mass changes required.

Freddy relies on great club players to do their thing. When we won it is Latrell and Tommy going crazy.

A few injuries and tactics are needed. Leaves him found wanting

I hope the new coach insisted on nsw games being played in nsw and not Adelaide or Perth

What has DCE done this series?

Same as last year..

He outplayed the nsw halves convincingly

Well he was the chief playmaker of the side who outplayed the Blues.

Maybe drill down on your stats and see what you can come up with.

My eyes only he seemed to do a better job than either of our number 7’s but I’m sure you will be able to produce statistics that prove otherwise.

You know he has the same amount of try assists as Luai?

That isn't his job. His job is to put the team into certain positions on the field. It then is up to Walsh or Munster to do the rest

Same with NSW, The problem is there are no organisation when NSW get inside the 20.

I will put it another way. If DCE was on NSW team and Moses on QLD. Do you think the result changes?

 

[Chins get the wins]

Luai looked very dangerous in the first half

 

[Iamback]

Same as last year..

He outplayed the nsw halves convincingly

Yet last year

Game 1 Munster was man of the match
Game 2 Cleary
Game 3 Ponga

Carrigan was Player of the series.

Him doing his job allowed QLD to win the series but didn't once actually burn NSW

That what a 7 should do. Make sure the other team is starting sets on their line and so on

 

[Kilkenny]

I should also add he probably came up with the biggest play of the game in running down Stephen Crichton but based on stats that is just one tackle is it not. Just one effective tackle. So your stats mean Jack shit basically. But by all means enlighten us all by demonstrating DCE did f**k all this series.

Jez you've really lost the plot haha.

He's outclassed our halves easily the last 2 years...

You can pit any spin or stat on it you like but you're well and truly wrong..results speak for themselves

You've been a bit cranky towards Franklin lately. Everything ok at home mate?

Yes and no. I think coaching has had far more to do with it

(I’m never wrong)

(I will always provide stats based evidence to prove I am right)

(I know better than you or anyone else)

You are the man. We all aspire to have your knowledge and wisdom.

You didn't answer my question

If the 7's were reversed does the result change?
