State of Origin - Game 1 Discussion

[Alec]

Valentine Holmes has scored a try every time he's played on the wing. I dunno why you wouldn't keep picking him there unless you really had no choice.

 

[broncsgoat]

That was a rubbish pass out wide to the winger from him.

He’s getting into the right position to make a play but then panicking and choosing the wrong options

This series was always going to be the perfect storm of shite if you're a Queenslander.

Terrible coach, vastly inferior roster, Fifita missing in action as usual, Way too many errors, horrible defence on the edges particularly from Gagai and Coates which is the least surprising thing ever, Munster and Grant underdone and Mitchell and To'o are combining well.

We needed to score at least one more before that half ended, and Holmes bungled it. Hard to see a feasible road back for us from here unless NSW completely shit the bed.

 

[Jason Simmons]

No, just Paul Green.

I can see why we didn’t sign him. We already have the atrocious defence and lack of ball-control down pat…

Plus he's an intercept threat if they **** up

Gagai and Holmes are beasts on the wing. We could have played both on the wing, put Brimson at fullback, find a couple of centers to just do a solid job as we have our X-factors out wide. We have to make the best of what we have. Capwell, despite his try, is a lot better playing in the back row. From the sound of it Fifita isnt doing great.

 

[GCBRONCO]

He’s getting into the right position to make a play but then panicking and choosing the wrong options

If your going to make passes like that you got to make sure the winger has space and the pass hits the mark and at the right speed, it was too high and slow. By the time the winger caught it he had nowhere to go.

 

[Galah]

Fifita in origin is a bench player, doesn’t have the work rate to start. You can’t fucking hide and cherry pick in origin.

He had about three options to go to on the other side of the field earlier, panicked and chose none and just got tackled.

the best thing he’s done in origin was his mic drop last year after we had won the series

There's always a real chance for that mate....NSW have great form for shitting the bed.

The game I will say has been so much more enjoyable that what has been offered up by the NRL over the past few weeks, very good flow and Sutton is doing a good job.

Smart coaching by fitter.
Got Turbo super involved early to make the toads give him lots of attention, then he becomes the dummy and the winger scores and cook and latrine make the meters while Qld look at Tom.
