The QLD Autopsy...

[Kaz]

How funny is Rothfield? He's claiming Papalii's hit on Gallen is a cheap shot. Gallen didn't hurt his neck until he tried to elbow Papalli in the head.

Rothfield is gobbling someone. (Not saying who)

Is it just me or was Slater slow as a Mother Fucker

The lack of support players after his line breaks concerned me more.

 

[Mister Wright]

Was I the only one watching NSW players offload off the ground after being tackled? Especially early in the first half...

 

[Porthoz]

First of all, that's Knives.

Second, point out where anyone here is wrong in what they're saying.

Yes it is mr. spelling nazi.

Not sure why you're getting your panties in a twist. I must have hit a nerve I guess...

Sorry if I don't want to look at this in the NSW'king wholesale changes way.

Gillett went well in defence (surprisingly). Didn't do much in attack. I'd stick with him over McQueen and Te'o, who drop out for Thaiday and Lillyman. I don't trust Thaiday as a front rower, I'd really prefer a specialist who could do the dirty and tough work from tackle 1.

 

[Super Freak]

Guys, it's quite simple. I will not be attending Game 2 & 3, QLD will win.

Thaiday will be there, McQueen or Teo will take his place. Meninga's reaction after Gillette didn't catch it 5 meters out puts him in the dog house, I'd be surprised if we see him the next game.

Agreed! They got one of their penalty goals from a set where they did it twice. Dead set lying on the ground and then flicking it back out.

And you will definitely not be attending game 3 either mate...

Wear it with pride.

If that team is named, we are fucked.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

If Ben Hunt plays State Of Origin this year, I will be quite astonished. Not because he doesn't deserve it, but because can you think of a more meteoric rise for a single player in a single year. Barba didn't even play Origin in 2012.

 

[Big Pete]

1. Anthony Milford
2. Billy Slater
3. Greg Inglis
4. Dale Copley
5. Daniel Vidot
6. Johnathan Thurston
7. Ben Hunt
8. Mat Scott
9. Cam Smith
10. Nate Myles
11. Josh Papalii (c)
12. Sam Thaiday
13. Corey Parker

14. James Segeyaro
15. Not Chris McQueen
16. Brenton Lawrence
17. Corey Oates

Coach: **** you, you'll blame him for everything anyway

 

[Mister Wright]

Surely if DCE is out you don't select Milford who has been playing fullback all season you go for someone like Hunt who is in form and has been playing the position.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

The only thing keeping Hunt out of the 7 is his kicking game. He has been showing improvement but is it good enough for Origin level?

I admit, it would be awesome to see Hunt play outside a real number 6 for once.
