LIVE State of Origin I - QLD vs NSW - Live Discussion

[Alec]

Just more on Klemmer, I can't believe Fittler never brought him back on. Surely they needed him in the last 10?

 

[Galah]

Can we talk about Papalii, he was massive tonight. Fucking fantastic effort with his runs and his bone crunching defence, he’s not the same player he once was his effort level was incredible for a big man!

 

[Battler]

Haas wasn't that bad. NSW were just completely lost, made it look worse. He was okay overall.

Agreed. He only looked 'bad' because of how he usually dominates at club level.

He was a gun 2nd rower, then he started getting fatter and fatter, and decided "**** it, I'll be a gun front rower instead".

 

[Kimlo]

Dane Gagai awarded MOTM.

 

[bronxmate]

Munster also very good. I think he should have taken on teddy. Not sure what it looked like in tv... but thought he had him with 15 out

 

[McHunt]

Why do you mention Macca every time? How fucken fixated are you? You need an intervention! He is seriously in your head!

He was the incumbent hooker. Hunt isn't a hooker. Pay more attention.

 

[Socnorb]

Haha no one wants to shake Gallens hand.

 

[ningnangnong]

Munster is a real old school running five-eighth, deadly footwork.

 

[GKDonkey]

I also thought he should've sold the dummy and ran

 

[BroncosAlways]

DCE brushing Gallen when leaving the panel was brilliant. Gal just looked down awkwardly

 

[Socnorb]

How come the video ref sounds like the fat betting guy?

 

[Culhwch]

Important question. Does Mitchell have the most punchable face in the game?

Great effort, boys. Drop Chambers, and on to game two!

 

[Alec]

Lol at the NRL.com player ratings. Walker gets a 5. Cleary got a 7. Chambers got a 7.5(!).
Mbop got the lowest score (4). Did he even play?

 

[Sirlee oldman]

Pick Tommy. He has been in the NRL team of the week twice in the last 3 weeks

Jun 5, 2019 - Merged

Give some credit to Moose tonight. I know he missed a tackle late on, but he was immense.

Fully agree about Moose. Held our shit together a few times when it could have gone bad.

 

[Super Freak]

I'd seriously prefer Opacic. Maybe not Copley, not that bad. We have **** all centres. I wouldn't be against Milford 6 Munster centre but you don't change a winning spine IMO.

What about O'Neill? Are you that desperate?

Probably having his best year since 2016.

 

[Culhwch]

What was with interviewing Freddy a couple of minutes into the second half? Guy couldn't have sounded more distracted. Great television, Nine!

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Without a doubt, and is clearly a dumb **** too. What he was doing taking Gillett off the ball like that is beyond me

 

[Harry Sack]

Still can't get over that non penalty try. Just amazed.

Talk about a game of two halves. That set on their try line where we let them only make about 15m was a real momentum shift. Chambers comfortably the worst of the QLD side IMO. Hunt was pretty ordinary in the first half, but really turned it around in the second. Munster likewise. Ponga....just excellent. Figured out how to win, just cut Chambers out and give it to Dane "I just grew another leg" Gagai. DCE was excellent. Pappali and Kaufusi were great as well. Napa? Meh. Happy to get the win, but a few things need some tinkering. The **** was the point of Mbye? I just knew Kevvie would pull a Milford with him. At least Moses wasn't expected to come on and win the game. Did not even realise Walker was playing until he was hooked.

 

[BroncsFan]

What about O'Neill? Are you that desperate?

Probably having his best year since 2016.

O'Neill might've played... they just gotta find his spleen first
