Yes, but you watch NSWailers complain that we didn't "win" in 1999 or 2002.
 
Ha, sif that matters. It'd still be 19-12. LOL!
 
The way history looks back on 1999 and 2002 leads to a lot of delusion. I can tell you, only one state was celebrating both those years and it certainly wasn't NSW. Especially in 2002 when they whinged enough to bring in one of the worst additions to modern Rugby League.

exactly.

in 1999, it looked like Queensland actually PLAYED for the draw towards the end because they knew it meant they retained the shield. they had a few chances to take field goal shots, but if they hadve gotten one of them then NSW would have the chance to kick off and pin them in our own half. so instead, they just kept the play down NSWs half. when a draw is as good as a win, why give the opposition any chance of stealing the victory from you? in those days, to be the champion you had to beat the champion - drawing with the champion isnt good enough.
 
Well...if you'd prefer it's : QLD 37 games won, NSW 27 games won. 2 draws.

I do believe Lote Tuqiri didn't bother to try and convert the try as they knew it was already wrapped up. I'm sure if he had his time over again he would take it more seriously.
 
NSW has lost 10 more games than us. LOL!
 
If the kick meant anything to the Queenslanders Lockyer would have taken the shot.

Bennett was filthy that he didn't because he knew what NSW would do as a result.

.... or we would've had Lockyer take the kick instead.
 
wow, i remember back when after a QLD loss i would look at the total wins and losses and take some comfort in the fact we mightve been 1 win ahead overall lol. look at it now!

Doesn't seem like that long ago either does it ?
 
yeh i remember it got to the stage where NSW had like 1 win more or 1 more series win than us, and i was pretty devastated as that had always been the 'yeah well we're still ahead' line you could pull after a loss, while wiping away the tears lol.

but when we've won 13 of the last 18 matches, i cant see us having to pull out that line any time soon lol.

Oh, you have 2000 as won by Queensland and NSW .... so it's 20 to 12, not 21-12.

Actually Wayne said in the lead-up to that match that QLD would be playing for the draw so it suited him perfectly.
