[Paul66]

Queensland Government pays $8M to host the game.
NSW score 8 tries.
$1M per try. Oh yes.

The rules change at Origin time. This isn't anything new, but it makes the crackdown look like a joke.

Yep, tackle a player and because your hand bounces off the ball and brushes them on the face you get sin binned and suspended.

Deliberately kick a player, no matter if you barely made contact, you get a fine only.

No one can say incidental head contact is worse than kicking.

Feeling after that effort from NSW game 1 they will repeat the dose and win game 2 too by say 14 points

 

[timokane]

NSW should have kept some of their tries for game 2

DCE behind a strong pack does some serious damage to the cowboys.
Be interesting to see selection for QLD next game.

Cowboys are hardly reflective of playing against an origin level team.

It doesn't help when people on Fox league have double standards too.

Gus tonight was entertaining with his one sided commentary on 9 though

But I take it the sin bin crackdown has ended already?

Thankfully I don't get the 9 coverage and yep, no sin bin tonight.

Well that's what it feels like to have your arse served up to yourself.

Queensland couldnt possibly be that bad again could they?

Munster will be better for the run, Papalii and Welch will be back, Ponga too (maybe).

Think id prefer we start Brimson at FB if Ponga hasnt played in a while.

Im a dyed in the wool Maroon and if we get beaten by a better side so be it but game 1 was insipid.

 

[timokane]

Repeat the dose NSW

 

[Nuggetz]

NSW will dominate again. QLD don't have the starch in the forward pack to stop nsw.

Another blow for Maroons: Ponga ruled out of Origin

Kalyn Ponga has been ruled out of Newcastle's clash with the Warriors due to his ongoing groin problem and is also out of contention for Queensland's shot at redemption in Origin II.

With this, Reece Walsh must be a chance of getting the call up

I would think so.

No doubt. And now Gagai has a good hitout against a weak Broncos, similar to DCE last weekend.

Tallis said that's important after a loss, so the player feels good about themselves when rejoining origin camp.

Tipping NSW to win 28 to 14

 

[moto748]

The weird thing is, I was absolutely convinced that NSW would win the first game (but still surprised by the margin), but am now more uncertain than ever about the result of Game 2. Which, I suppose, is how it should be.

Remember when Munster died and was cremated a few weeks before game 1?

He made it back.
