State of Origin

[Phantom Gossiper]

Billy Slater has torn his PCL and will miss 4-6 weeks, so wont be available for Origin 3

Oh no! Boyd or maybe Inglis to fullback then?

Im gonna suggest Inglis to fullback and either Gillet to the centres and bring in another forward or maybe Dane Nielson to the centres

[Johno6]

Aren't they suggesting lotie tuquire(sp?) to take his place?

[Phantom Gossiper]

Ah possibly, maybe Tuquiri to the wing, Tate to the centres and Inglis to F/B

[Booney]

Game 3 tonight. Should be a cracking game with Inglis moved out of his preferred spot to FB and Slater not playing, perhaps QLD's most influential play maker.

Got a couple of mates coming around to watch it, beers are getting frosty now.

Go NSW.

I look forward to watching GI at fullback, hope he kills it.

GO QUEENSLAND!!

Morris scores
NSW 8-0 after 15

I want to know why neutral non-Queenslanders barrack for them? If it wasn't for the original NSW Rugby League there would be no State of Origin. Players in the domestic Queensland comp who fancied themselves in the big picture and hankered after an Australian rep cap headed south and played in Sydney. The Brisbane comp was like the SANFL here - genuine but on the second rung. So you get all these players who walk out on their home state (Qld) and go to NSW to develop their game and suddenly get all this support. Why?
Go NSW tonight!
Love the Blues

Boyd crosses over

Im a half Blue and my pop would roll in his grave if I even applauded a Queensland player.
We were taught not to trust Queenslanders at a very young age

Depressing

[The Dark Knight]

QLD 16-8 just before half time. Try to Hodges just before and converted by Thurston.

Go Queensland!

[Jim05]

Blues need the first try after the break or it could end up very ugly

[The Dark Knight]

It was all Queensland after Morris scored for NSW, the responded well to a good start by NSW. Thurston has been great so far.

The one thing none of us can ignore is the complete incompetence of Demetriou and the AFL in failing to design a workable State of Origin in actual football. This NRL thing is huge and the custodians of our game run scared. Freakin' shameful. We should have it. If they can we can. Poor management.

Brett Stewart crosses

I would rather the grand final be the most important game of the season.
