Queensland by 100.

Every year I hear of this series being harder than ever for Queensland, and one of the big reasons is the Nsw back row. Well the game is won up front people and the two Queensland big men will get the job done. If Queensland happens to lose game 1 (HA!!!) then they won't make the same mistakes in games 2 and 3.
Oh and this talk of Queensland losing if they go into the game expecting to win is irrelevant. They are professional enough to realise not to take this Blues team as a walkover. They will prepare as if this is their biggest test yet.

I hear what you're saying, but we did that last year in game 1. we just didnt look hungry for it. we usually offer up 1 really bad game a year where our line defence is slow and we dont look interested. hopefully we dont this year

Hmmmm, in a way you are correct there mate. However, I put that loss more down to no Price, no Lockyer/Prince, Hunt 5/8th, Webb & Lillyman in the team, Tate on the wing.
Coxy said:Good point Jeb. Most of the games Queensland really underperform in start with picking the wrong team, and everyone knew it.
This time I don't think you can argue with the team selections. Nothing jumps out as being a WTF moment.
