POST GAME 2026 State of Origin

[ningnangnong]

Did anyone notice Teddies short kick off late in the game?
He stood on Qlds side of halfway and kicked off without ever getting on NSWs side.
Is that allowed?

Depends who you play for.

 

[Dexter]

Depends who you play for.

Baha yes.

Serious question though if anybody knows.

 

[BroncsFan]

Baha yes.

Serious question though if anybody knows.

I think this popped up on the cows vs tigers game where cows got the ball after challenging after the siren?

Val was way over the line or something??

Also numerous occasions of it happening on short dropouts to the opposite side of their preferred foot... watch Sam Walker tonight... no Tupou on the left so he kicks right to Marky Mark and he is well in front of the line when kicking.

Should be a penalty, but refs are piss weak.

Will probably get penalised in a Broncos vs Storm game when storm challenge a short kick off in the dying stages of the game

 

[Broncosgirl]

lol at Read. Dumb statement.

 

[LittleDavey]

Club level, sure; Origin is a different beast though.

Pretty much the team we smashed them in game 2. QLD by 30.

 

[Bucking Beads]

That NSW team makes me laugh

 

[Foordy]

Panic from Daley? Mass changes. Daley is one game from having a 1 - 7 series record as coach

Staggs, Api, Lucas and To'o all dropped.

 

[Sproj]

Good calls for the most part in fairness.

 

[_wwong]

Hopefully this might fire up Staggs but I’m not holding my breath.

 

[The Boss]

Feeling confident maybe too confident

 

[Alec]

Really want a QLD win, give us something to cheer about.

 

[Bucking Beads]

3 out of their 5 backs have been changed. Billy is going to target them massively.

 

[Big Pete]

Good calls for the most part in fairness.

Mixed bag for mine.

I rate the Bostock, Critta and Best selections. I don't rate dropping To'o while keeping Nawaqanitawase. I'm glad Mark got his jersey but he's just too loose for this level.

If the team is being picked on form, why are Moses and Martin there? Strange and Olakau'atu should have come straight in. The Lucas selection just becomes more bizarre to be completely dropped altogether.

I don't know how Robson keeps his spot.

I don't rate that bench either. That could be fixed if they find a way to push Murray into the starting team.

 

[Brocko]

As predicted, Staggs and Lucas got dropped for all that edges defensive problems, but they were never dropping Nathan.

To'o dropping is a fair shock.

 

[Bucking Beads]

Lindsay Collins ruled out of origin 3. Slater might pick Carrigan now.
