Probably Gagai, to me it's just weird to see a loser get man of the match.

They still do I think

If I had to give it to a Queenslander I would've probably given it to Gagai or Napa.

I really don't understand why Jackson got it, he played well but he was not even close to the best. It's nothing new really there have been plenty of poor mom decisions over the years. The last 2 Clive Churchill medals were farcical and even the great Wally Lewis got a few man of the match...

Are you still predicting a 3-0 Blues sweep Huge? And Checchin is a Queenslander born and breed.

QLD have named a better side for Game 2 but they still look a bit small up front which was the Blues advantage in game 1 and the fact they dropped Oates who added plenty of meters will hurt them. Been thinking the Blues strength up front, momentum behind them and home ground advantage will get...

I really hope Perth get admitted in sooner than later. They have juniors, the time difference works for TV and even though it is an AFL city there are plenty of people there who watch Rugby League. They also have their own Rugby specific ground in Perth. The Western Reds would've been good if it...

One of my mums sisters was a mad St George fan and she told me the merger turned her away for a bit as it didn't feel like St George but she still goes for them these days. It's a real shame that Illawarra had no money just imagine how good they could've been in the early 2000's. The region...

Fair point, comparing Pearce as an Origin player to Webcke or Lockyer is apples and oranges. I thought Pearce was solid in Game 1 and did his job. He has been very good this season and hopefully he gets what he deserves tomorrow night to add along to the Grand Final he has won. Nobody with a...

Webcke and Tallis had nothing records. Tallis won 5 out of 16 I think but I know Webcke only won 8 from 21.

I've always been a fan of the salary cap, I know people from overseas (America, Europe) and they have told me they like how it is structured out. I believe it serves it's purpose well I guess as it evens out talent and has provided different premiers almost each year, evident in North Queensland...

I can't help but laugh when you guys have a go at the dt for writing shit about Queensland. Yes the dt is a joke but I see the courier mail every day and they come out with some pure rubbish about the Blues that is easily on the same level. They were even having a crack today.

He is a solid player from what I've seen but can't think of to much besides that. Heard he was picked for his defence.

I was a bit surprised when I saw Thiaday had played that many as well.

This is why I'm a big fan of suburban grounds as they are usually 3/4 at capacity or close to a sell out crowd, it makes for a much better backdrop much better atmosphere at the ground and on TV as well. I imagine the players much prefer the suburban grounds as well. I'm certain if you had a...

I think Cooper got the nod because of his pairing with Thurston

Or Tedesco, Hayne or Maloney

Aussie Rules actually did State of Origin before Rugby League did, McCaullife liked the concept and asked if Rugby League could do the same thing. Ours is a lot more successful than theirs was.

Sorry for bumping this up but not long ago I read the book "The night the music died" about Western Divisions Amco cup victory in 1974 and it reminded me of Leicesters EPL title. It was along the same lines as Leicester city, those country boys were 1000-1 or something if the bookmakers were...

My thoughts on AFL: I've been to a few games at the Gabba and have watched in on TV a few times as well, I honestly just don't enjoy it or find it interesting. At the games I went to I just didn't care at all found it pretty boring. Just seemed like whoever won the bounce kicked the goal and...
