Game 3 Spoilers

[Black Philip]

Tonga's not a winger. Inglis is great on the wing, but better in the centres. No place for Tonga IMO.

1. Slater
2. Boyd
3. Inglis
4. Hodges
5. Folau

Inglis and Tonga did quite well swapping from center to wing and back again IMO

 

[Coxy]

Yeah, they were good, but Boyd is a better player than Tonga IMO.

 

[Je$ter]

Inglis needed to get the ball in his hands more often. Josh Morris and Wolflol couldn't defend for shit.

 

[Coxy]

Problem was there wasn't enough support on the inside once he did make his inevitable breaks.

 

[Jeba]

Seriously, I can't stand Billy Slater. Such an unreliable SoO fullback. 3 mistakes in the first half, 2 of which led to NSW tries and just being useless as a third playmaker. I fear for QLD in the future unless we find a quality fullback

Couldn't agree more. He was absolutely terrible tonight, along with his clubmate Cameron Smith. Seriously, I lose count at how many times Locky and Thurston were screaming for the ball on one side of the ruck, and Smith went the other way with a nothing play. He was hopeless.

 

[Coxy]

Yep. But Slater's the best player in the world. Ask Hammoz...........LOLZ

I agree, he didn't have the usual go forward to get the ball rolling like he usually does and sharp passing game. Sounds similar to how Farrah played in game 1 with Campese.

 

[Coxy]

Yep Thurston and Lockyer didn't help him with their pathetic passing game particularly in the first half. Seriously they put their receivers under so much pressure.

To be fair to Smith, something happened to him in the first 20 odd minutes and he nearly went off. Not sure what it was, but it could have been hampering him all game.

Probably one of the numerous Blues cheap shots like the ones that caused our numerous other injuries. A lot of players seemed to be playing injured at times tonight, probably as a result of head whacks, grapples and numerous other underhand plays the Blues are famous for. A lot of the tackles looked pretty ugly but you can get away with anything in Origin right?

 

[Twiztid]

Ya I think it was a cork or something around the groin.

You really should learn to play this

Take off the goggles.

Must've been a big knock if he couldn't work out to throw the ball to his playmakers when they are absolutely screaming for him to give it to them.

Honestly, he has been one of our best over the last 4 series and I have no doubt that by the time he retires he will go down as Queensland's greatest hooker, but tonight he had an absolute shocker. As did Billy.

 

[schmix]

Hmm fair enough. I thought it might have been a head knock, and you never know what they'll make a guy do. But if it was something else then that's no excuse for ignoring your playmakers.

And I'll admit it wasn't something you could probably notice on TV. But where I was sitting on the middle level where you can see absolutely everything, he made some terrible decisions in attack, particularly inside the Blues' 20m.

Your new avatar is indescribably awesome.

 

[Big Pete]

Smith did his shoulder early into the first half. It was during one of Watmoughs many breaks.

Thankyou icon_thumbs_u It is pretty much the most awesome thing I've ever seen on a football field. Try or no try.
