@mariner4life and those Qld underdogs back in the day with the King, Mal and Gene Miles…

Origin. Spirit

fluffybunny

nah you just always on origin spirits .. bundy and brown tap water XXXX

I think this will be a brutal encounter, on paper you would think the Blues get up, but that never translates in Origin. Blues to squash some cane toads but not by as much as we think.

I would be interested to have a rugby union ref watch the game and find how many cards they could dish out applying some unions laws, I suspect it would finish as a game of sevens at best

Strap in sports fans

This is it. The decider. The greatest show on turf. The crucible. At the home of origin. You will not see better than this.

This is what it means to be a Queenslander etc

Also crypto and share trading app ads are worse than fucking sportsbet

Even with Jack Bauer

Red card?

Accidental head clash. No red card. Very refreshing.

Red card 3 weeks!!!!!

Oh wait no this game is mature

One each out now!

Fucking crazy

Luai is such a giant cockstain

Murray's one was bad, but Cobbo went to sleep.

Another one.

Yeah, tackle low, stops concussion completely

Watching the decider tonight after Ardie's comments. Haven't watched or followed league in yonks but used to be an avid NSW fan as I was obsessed with the Panthers back in the day. Are there any genuine GOATs playing? You know like the Filters, Malinga's, Johns etc of the good old days. Or nobody that stands out like those guys did?

Swinging arm to the head and just on report. So different.

That's a deadset red in union. And if not the fans would be calling for the refs head. I like the report system.

Filters, Malinga's

Had a few Carltons or Tooheys?

Maybe a few, can't watch origin sober!!

He fell in to it!!!!

Shouldn't have even been a penalty

Stoked I've got Valentine Holmes 1st Try!

Dearden you fucking ripper!!!!

Qld fired up tonight. In danger of burning themselves out I reckon.

Of all fucking players it had to be that fluffybunny

@Crazy-Horse Yup Fa'asuamaleaui and Papali'i starting to get targetted in the middle.

That grubber by Cleary always causes problems. Usually it has more curl on it.

Cook could be a big player with his speed as this game comes on when he comes off the bench.

He is still young but Clearly will be likely in GOAT territory by the time he finishes, he has already achieved many goals and isn't 25. Munster (QLD) not playing could arguably be one too. A handful in the next wave below category maybe and then the rest

Tedesco (the Blues fullback) is probably in the top 3 fullbacks I’ve ever seen. He’s a gun.

NSW pressure pumping Qld

Same as last game, no fucking errors

58% of the ball
Completed 16 of 17 sets

No respite for Qld

This will blow out unless Qld can find a source of inspiration

And there is a very different speed in the ruck too

Poor by Hunt. In that situation no need to make that pass. A good scoring opportunity and field position gone begging.

Stuff trying to catch that.

Klein you fluffybunny blow a 6 again

Blowing 2 in the last 40 seconds doesn't count

Lovely by Grant

Incredible half of footy

Tupou a costly mistake.

Great effort there to get in between the two Blues players for the try.

Holmes didn’t kick through that one and sort of toe poked it. Poor miss.

Crucial try to get back in the game after being under the pump for 20+ mins there. Lucky though haha, the ball fell right between the NSW players after the deflection, not that QLD will care.

Shit top 3?

I've seen a gun fullback or 5

yeah, I would put him in that group below, I would argue a fit Turbo is better, even though Freddy wouldn't. There have been a few gun fullbacks which make it hard to put him GOAT territory

It’s his all round game that puts him up there for me with Slater and Mini.

Lockyer a line ball with my top 3 but he was a better 5/8, and he was probably the best ball playing fullback. Brett Mullins to round out my top 5.

Next best Inglis (a better centre) but I thought he got exposed defensively at fullback.

Brett Stewart was a gun
Jarryd Hayne nearly won a comp by himself

Matt Bowen!!!

Crazy start to this half
