State of Origin II - NSW v Queensland - Pre-Match Discussion

[Sproj]

Man we better get them with absolutely every grubby tactic we got in Brissy.

 

[Super Freak]

Matt Gillett was useless, also.

How many times did he drop that ball or throw stupid passes?

 

[Unbreakable]

Shit performance by everyone in the field tbh, disgusting refereeing, horrible offensive display from both teams, literally the worst origin I've ever witnessed in terms of attack.

May not even watch origin 3.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

What a gift from the match officials to NSW. An atrocious performance.

Aaron Woods, the lopsided penalty count and Slater being held by the jersey so he can't chase a loose ball. Fucking disgrace.

Dynasty had to end at some point but after tonight's performance, I still know which team I support. Any nsw supporter with more brain cells than fingers shouldn't be too pumped about that but I guess when you're thrashed year in and year out, logic goes out the window.
I just absolutely HATE losing to such dodgy refereeing. Extremely bitter pill to swallow. As long as there are dodgy referees, qld will always have the moral edge over this bunch of grubs. Doesn't translate to points on the board and it doesn't excuse the screw ups from qld (Taylor for example), but I cannot believe it's taken Qld 8 years to finally snap (Thurston) and act out, after copping hell from these refs, and infinite filthy intended tackles. I take my hate off to their tolerance level

 

[Foordy]

Well, NSW have finally beaten us ... lucky for them the refs didn't want to see 9 straight series wins to QLD

 

[Brett]

Gillett was terrible. 2 costly dropped balls in a row and missed tackles galore. DCE was a passenger, McQueen offered nothing and Taylor was next to hopeless. Lillyman as expected offered zero. We had no impact off the bench and had to carry DCE all game.

 

[Sproj]

Yeah Taylor made a mistake but he was great other than that. Try and be a bit of objective lads. Out boys gave it their all and can hold their heads high, we were beaten by the ref and even the most biased NSW non-brogan supporters will realize that when the hear of the moment dies down.

 

[Alec]

Lillyman was easily the best off the bench. Bent the line with each run. Should have gotten more minutes, especially with Scott not playing most of the game.

 

[Splinter]

Mal's arrogance has finally caught up with him. DCE has been a passenger all game. As has McQueen.

Wouldn't say he was a passenger but definitely no cohesion because he never trained with the team

 

[winslow_wong]

look at all the qld players congratulating NSW. Thats the difference. proud to be from qld. NSW won by pure grubness. everyone was worries about playing hunt but he would have been Much more reliable than taylor

 

[GCBRONCO]

Congrats to NSW won't make excuses they took their opportunity, we didn't. Reffing was poor both sides IMO and allowed far too much grubby play from both sides. Never want to see Taylor in a Queensland jersey again, soft under pressure. As for Hunt I actually wish he did play tonight, Thurston has been MIA in SOO for a while now, Cherry Evens at least tried but even so, we lacked a lot of direction and potency in attack from our playmakers IMO, some fresh blood would have helped.

 

[BroncosAlways]

**** Reynolds, I hope he gets fucked up in game 3 he can't walk out of the stadium.

Good performance from Hodgo and thaiday, towards the end it felt like another broncos game with it all being dumped on Hodges to do everything.

Oh and **** Reynolds.

 

[Foordy]

I think people are being too harsh on Gillett, i thought he was one of our better players tonight...

DCE though needs to step it up if he wants to be the long term QLD halfback

Thought Lillyman was solid off the bench. Agree with the rest.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Anyone else think Cherry Evans was utterly useless tonight? Hunt should have played.

 

[winslow_wong]

in the last 15 mins mal should have hooked Taylor. where was Scott?

I didn't see Taylor after he threw that pass to the touchie ... maybe he did get hooked
