2024 State of Origin - Game II Discussion

[JayPee]

imo this is the game we should question why 5 players are from a cowboys team.

that said It is not too disimilar to how we have treated being one up in the past.

But players like Cobbo have to be in the 13 going forward, I also feel like we need more size in the middle.

I think Jensen should be in the squad game 3 he has earned it.

You do know we are actually in front of you guys on the ladder for what it is worth. What do the Cowboys have anything to do with it? Nobody was good.

brother I get your argument but your players I don't get.

Holmes? Who else. The rest of them all deserve to be in the team.

Tuilagi too tbh.

That said I get the hostage situation we are in with Holmes given the lack of Goal kickers for QLD but still Walsh can do the job and DCE while mid at it can do a job if needed as backup.

Boy I hope Billy doesn't look to the Broncos to bring in team changes for game 3. Bring on the third exhibition so that we can all forget about it by the morning after and move on with the rest of the season.

The ground announcer was shocking.

Food was bad, this cost me $16.50.

About the same as Suncorp. It's fucking ridiculous the price of food and the quality doesn't match the price.

But had to eat it at that price

the players Billy should be keeping an eye on the next couple of weeks are Fifita, walker, gagai and jensen. I’d like to have Holmes on the wing but was he a specialist left side winger? Maybe cobbo can replace Coates on the right but I can’t see it happening.

 

[Wolfie]

I am NEVER going to another important match again.

Tonights game I was there. jinx.

Last years grand final I was there. Jinx

Go and support the Cowboys

My man Carrigan was.

We have zero physicality and outside of the injured brigade, I don't see who we could bring in that would really change things dramatically in that regard. Fifita is physical with the ball in his hands but is a powder puff in defence. Cotter in the front row is a real worry. Plenty of heart but just doesn't have the size to be effective there. I don't see Jensen doing the job we need there either.

We need some fucking mongrel and niggle to put it back on them. Kafusi is probably the only guy that fits this but he got limited minutes last night for some reason. I think Billy hasn't got the right balance this year but is limited in what he's got with injuries.

At least we aren't from Deliverance.

Keep playing the banjo.

 

[Bucking Beads]

Gee NSW love to go full grubby though don't they. It is just what they do. They're bad losers but even worse winners.

You nailed it. To'o at one stage caught the ball and was still on the way down in the tackle and already Klein had called held and release ensuring a super quick play the ball to get NSW on a roll.

Contrast this with whenever Reece Walsh was tackled where you could go to the fridge and come back and the tackle was still being completed.

Surely Gee gets game 3.

 

[Nerd]

Liam Martin only getting a fine for lifting Cotter's leg and him going head first into the ground is a joke. This is exactly the shit we want removed from the game.

The cowboys have one more win than us and are in arguably better form over the last month.

I agree re: cobbo but only because he’s a bigger body.
