OFFICIAL 2025 State of Origin - Game I Discussion

Our tactics are so ****ing one dimensional.

Have we kicked behind early to find some grass and chase down the winger? No

Have we put any pressure on Moses & Cleary 5th tackle kicks? No
 
Gus is right about it being a shit sin bin..

Which to me is why it should have been a penalty try. I wouldn't say To'o intentionally fouled him, but he did impede him as he was trying to score.

Think they've got that completely ****ing wrong.
 
Qld need to get Wayne Bennett in for a pre match rev up. We’ll never beat nsw based on skill alone. Need belief and passion.

Slater hasn't got the players so I won't judge him on that, but we can't even do the little things right and that's concerning.
 
Glad we carried another hooker to stop Grant having to play 80, especially when his first 40 was that bad.

Oh wait..
 
With that said...

The only chance the Maroons had was if Klein was generous with the whistle. Just completely out-played all across the park and the only play the Maroons have is kick it for Coates and Nanai.

Blues having plenty of success just running it at Nanai & Cherry. It opens up the field and instantly puts the Maroons on the back foot.

Queensland had very few positional advantages and sadly Grant is having another disappointing game for the Maroons.

Is Harry Grant a myth? He was our worst player last series and is repeating the effort again.

He has been horrible. He can't handle the physicality. I dont think he is fit enough.

Xavier "dropsy" coates you are talking about? Catches about 2% of attacking kicks, heaps over rated aerial threat. That's why Melbourne make him tap back now, couldn't catch a cold

98% when he plays against the Broncos though.

Harry Grant is a handbrake and Munster hasn't done anything for years.

Half the team is coasting on reputations earned in series wins I barely remember...
 
Munster is MIA
Grant is doing his own thing or giving away the ball
Ponga is not controlling from the back
Small forwards aren’t forwarding
 
Lomax has been changed over to the other side to cover to’o. Now we need to attack through hammers side.

Just needs to be on the good side of a quick and dominant ruck, can get that more consistent at Melb.
 
I think Coates has been one of our best. Sad state of affairs when he is our best carry out of the back
