I can’t ever remember being less interested in the lead up to an origin. This is not what I wish to be, but I Is what I is.

Exactly what I said before game 1. Turns out I was more invested in it than I thought.

I watched the game, but I wasnt all that invested through it... definitely not like I have in the past... even after Klown ****ed up and we then lost I don't think I stewed on it all that much... whereas in previous years I would be absolutely furious about it.
I was more annoyed about the media's reporting on it... the references to the Sua-torpedo, claiming that it was correct and then being shocked when the grading came back inline with a sin bin vs send off

First week without any football at all aside from the Broncos game. It was a lot easier than I thought it was gonna be.
I will watch the origin game, but as @Big Pete said .. like every thing else, nswrl ruined this for me too. I removed my “Deep In The Heart of Queensland” tag a few months ago, and I have had that for the last 20 years, posting on Courier mail etc. Was a huge QLD fan, still love the team, but I hate the game that rugby league has become.
Thanks nswrl.

What's the audio going to reveal that we don't already know?
We already know the bunker saw the incident differently to Klein and that they said it was just a sin bin. We already know that Klein disagreed with the bunker and overruled them.
Maybe there was a bit more back and forth between the two but we already know they weren't on the same page about the incident.
Just reeks of Courier Mail trying to stir shit up on the week of the game in an attempt to influence the refs.

Why don’t they just release it? Could clear some stuff up?

Yes, we know that, but the audio would catch the NRL in a lie. They said that the bunker said it was at least a sin bin which you can tell by what Klein is saying isn’t what they said, so if you didn’t lie to everyone and there is nothing to hide, release it!

Yeah I’ll be firing on Wednesday, just the lead up to it. I’m not reading any articles, watching shows, listening to podcasts. I don’t know what the storylines are.

It's because they're protecting their gambling addict corrupt ref.

I'm guessing NSW is just talking about Cleary and being an immortal... unlikely we're missing all that much

Like Beeforelle said, the NRL has claimed that the Bunker advised that it was "at least a sin bin". Whereas, if I remember correctly, the live audio had the bunker explicitly detailing that it was just a head clash.
The NRL have almost certainly been caught in a lie here, but they know that 95% of "fans" will take what NRL 360 or other mainstream reports as the truth, and just accept it.

CM was probably thinking game 2 was a lock, thinking the NRL would want the decider, so we'd get a favourable whistle like game 2 last year.
Now the Klein story came out, every single blow of the whistle is going to be scrutinised to absurd levels. So, they're putting pressure on NRL about Klein.

Paul Gallen made an interesting point about NSWs bench and how it could be a weak point size wise
He said Koroisau is more than likely going to come on for Robson at some point and Strange after his game 1 performance. Murray is definitely coming on. So Fonua Blake or Radley are not playing? Daley loves Radley so If its Fonua Blake they are awfully small.
This was backed up by Daley on radio saying that Strange will be playing in the middle if there is no injuries. Surely he knows they can actually only use 4 players? I never thought about it until now with their makeup. Unless Koroisau is actually not going to play and Robson is going to play 80 or Strange spells him.
It actually sets up for them to start Murray at lock and Yeo at prop with barnett on the bench. That would make more sense.
