There has to be something more to this behind the scenes. Maybe an attitude problem in camp?

You'd think so. And then the refs walk on to the field...

If they had won, it wouldn't be a problem.

I think he does have an attitude problem. I think he believes all of the hype about him. I think this is Freddie's way of giving him a reality check.

Im not sure if Wighton is playing left or right but it shouldn't matter. He will have Ponga or Munster to tease him out of the line which he does regularly at 5/8 for the raiders.
Hopefully the weather forecast is wrong and we get a dry track.
I think it will be a high scoring game and I hope we get a fair shake from the refs.

Possibly I've been around a bit longer than you. There have been many examples of biased decisions in origin and Qld are more often than not on the wrong side of them IMO.
It would be good to see stats on penalty counts in origin particularly game 2 counts.

You're in your 50's so you have about 20 years on me.
Nevertheless, I believe the better team generally wins or overcomes the adversity of bad refereeing. See 2006 as an example.
I feel as if throwing out the refs are gonna screw us narrative is some defense-mechanism shit. If you're so sure (not aimed at you in particular) its going to happen I bet you're not going to bother watching? There would be no logical point, right?

That's the true Qld take on the raw deal we get from NSWanker refs honed over many years of getting bent over at crucial moments .
Besides that I'll be into the bundy as my normal warm up and anything slightly dodgy will be "the fuckin refs robbing us again".

Of course we fucking watch it. It's like watching a train crash, you don't look away. Has happened enough times to both teams to not be an anomaly.

Welp, normally my attitude goes the other way but, if the Broncos are gonna have a shit year, at the very least let QLD win Origin.

Problem is he’s creating this whole siege mentality now. Wouldn’t be surprised if they end up flogging qld
