What are these people playing a ball sport doing interrupting the school eisteddfod that was going on at ANZ Stadium?

Who knew that Shannon Noll was still a thing?

I don't know why they bother re-doing the preview show every year you know. It hasn't changed. "This great Queensland team!... the game that creates champions and legends!... the PASSION!"

If you changed around the names, you could broadcast the same show every year.

What is Hodkinson doing there? I know he got a bad bounce, but get the friggen ball dead!

 

[Ron]

Slater was offside on the kick

 

[Aucklander]

Crap call

 

[Aucklander]

Barely touched him

 

[Andrew Mc]

Crap call

To the letter of the law it was there, but tend to agree...

Would love for a team to just break out a proper old style scrum just one time. They would be able to move 30m before the other side clued in as to what the heck was happening

 

[Aucklander]

Very poor read on defense there

 

[Boxhead_31]

Tissue paper defense there from the Cockroaches

The over head shots really are a bad look.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Brilliant start from the boys!

 

[tigerninja]

wtf is the Rock doing the intro?

I thought it was great

 

[Andrew Mc]

Thought he was going for the ball, and just ended up tackling at the same time. Never mind the blocking.

 

[Aucklander]

Excellent try

 

[Andrew Mc]

That'll do it.

 

[nobbyiscool]

I loathe Josh Dugan - but that was excellent support play, and an incredible kick!

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Poor poor poor. Dugan had no support and pulls off something like that. Disappointing try to concede after such a great start.

 

[Experimental]

QUEENSLANDER!

Carn Maroons!

 

[Aucklander]

Very well worked try..............................as they check again

 

[SloaneysDanger]

And our good start turns to s**t.

 

[Aucklander]

Dear oh dear. It's obviously a try yet over and over again they have to check.

 

[Aucklander]

QLD just look to be lacking spark

Reynolds has been injured and also been suspended for games. He would have been there for game 1 with Hodkinson if both of those things didn't occur.

Still like to know what Soward did wrong, or Maloney even. Soward was one of the Blues better players in 2011. Be surprised if Pearce is in number 6 next year no matter how well he plays.

Soward has also been injured so no chance for him this year. Bit of a toss up between Maloney and Pearce but they'll go the 'chosen one' every time.
