Your most tense Origin moment?

[Knightmare]

The moment in Origin that had your heart pounding like no other?

Mine, strangely enough, was Game 1 2004. I think it was the first time a team I followed went to golden point, and I really thought Qld were going to do it via Prince or Locky getting a field goal, until Shaun Timmins kicked one of the most unlikely FG's ever. The feeling of elated relief when the ref signalled it had gone between the posts was huge!

Every single origin match.

I'm gonna wear a HR monitor when I head to game 3 to see just how high it actually gets. It was absolutely racing last night

Likewise. Every Origin get's me going and my heart pump's like it's going to jump out of my throat. Out of all games though the last 10minutes in this game my heart was racing like crazy.

Knightmare, how was Locky going to kick a field goal? I don't even think he was in Sydney for that game! :lol: Otherwise fair call.

The final five minutes in Origin 3. Time REALLY slowed down there. Game 2 2007 and Game 3 2008 were also very tense finishes.

Tell me about it, I couldn't sit down

From last night my heart was in my mouth when Queensland made that late break, the one that ended with Cooper Cronk getting flattened by Luke Lewis.

[POPEYE]

When my missus almost spilled my bottle of Jack whilst celebrating for the first time in years

 

[Knightmare]

Ah, the halves were Flannery and Prince that night. Forgot about Flanno!

 

[ANTiLAG]

Easily done for you. He wasn't in your side. I still have nightmares about the "shitman" playing.

 

[This Year?]

As soon as it left the boot I knew it was going over. That was a very tense game from memory too.

 

[God-King Dean]

Probably last night. Never wanted NSW to win so badly.

 

[Fordy20]

Game 1 2009 when Wing came on kept Gidley out of dummy half and combined with Farah to get the attack firing, bringing NSW to within a converted try with 10 minutes remaining. Nervous hope and anticipation was soon shattered though due to yet another Gidley error. Have never been more disgusted with an Origin player in my entire life.

Finch's field goal was pretty special.

 

[Alan Shore]

A game with Timmins and Flannery as halves? Injuries must have been pretty epic that year.

 

[Skeletor]

The last 10 minutes of every game when NSW are up by 10 or less. Always scares me due to QLD being fast finishers.

 

[Shorty]

Game III 2006, my god.

 

[Apey]

Have never been more disgusted with an Origin player in my entire life.

yeah, you don't make it half obvious or anything

 

[Patorick]

Nate Myles spear-tackle on Ben Cross in 2008. Should have been sent off for sure.

Steve Price's injury in Game 3, 2009. Very scary times there.

And the head clash between Jason Smith and Ian Roberts in 1994. They both looked like horror movie characters after that.
