Handling was very good, very few offloads though.
Origin is no longer hard, it's fast. The pace of the game is insane
DCE still sucks.
Newbies Carrigan and Cotter are killing it. Grant adding heaps from dummy half
But NSW look the better side so far. On a different night they have 3 tries. Qld can't keep giving them field position

The game is incredibly fast. The collisions are lame, there are few offloads, and it seems extremely risk averse though. Boring.

It's all very predictable.
4x one out hit ups
1x 'backline move'

Just as I say that, Queensland start mixing it up, a try off a scrum, a few offloads and a wee bit of excitement....
Haha a tip tackle from one of the Blues, dumps the guy on his shoulder/head.
On report only, and a commentators call 'that's origin at it's finest'
Fuck me.
That's a red card all day every day in rugby - and there wouldn't even be any debate about it.
Cameron Smith would be proud of those Qld extra wrestling hold downs without being penalised….
What a fucking game of football, that was awesome.
Munster is the new Wally Lewis. What a game.
I have no idea how Qld held on.
@mariner4life there was actually some beautiful footy in that final 10 by the Blues. The short passing, bodies in motion and direct running was great to watch. We should see more of it.
Glad Qld won this because I think it will add a bit more attention come game 2 and might add a bit of spice.
