State of Origin Ampol State of Origin 2023

Yeh as a die hard Queenslander teddy used to give me nightmares.

Queensland is a fair way off their best tonight but NSW is also playing with some creativity and freedom finally

 

[010203]

A reprieve for Queensland.

Just to clarify I’m taking about DCE.

Teddy went backwards fast really. Not just a NSW problem either but a Roosters one too.

Best been very good. Suits the origin game with his stronger defensive play

 

[norway blue]

Great try.

Ooooft Teddy just making all you lads look silly

 

[010203]

Lol at Best and Addo Carr dancing. Looks like QLD's 5th whitewash will have to wait.

 

[010203]

Ivan Cleary in the Blues coaches box. Maybe he's responsible for their improved performance.

Literally thinking that was the first time I’ve seen him break the lines like that all series too. He has been better today playing with someone who isn’t Luai though

 

[Plugger35]

That's probably the end of QLD's hopes of a clean sweep.

I don't think they would be too worried about it though.

Winning the series is more important.

 

[windyhill]

Would love the sweep, can see it 2-1.

Win some, lose some.

 

[Slysh]

Look what happens when you don't slip over when running the ball

I actually think Slater is playing next year already “yeh look how clever Freddie is, keep him on guy”

 

[phantom13]

Lol saves it for when Qld aren't really trying. Save it flog. 1 premiership

Nah, still a star, give him at least 2-3 more series at the 1.

 

[010203]

No hat trick for the Hammer just yet.

Billy pretty much said as much after game 2.

 

[phantom13]

Is that not a knock on against To’o?

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Nah, still a star, give him at least 2-3 more series at the 1.

Nah NSW have better options now. If Mitchell is fit it’s his spot 100 percent

 

[010203]

That's the whitewash down the drain.

I’m a Queenslander… it was firmly tongue in cheek.

 

[phantom13]

So my multi was NSW into Walker to score.

I went within a hares breath of putting the try scorer as Best instead.

Spewing now.

 

[GC2015]

Why would he even consider QLD when he is Koori?

Who cares who he played his first rep game for LOL

Remeber when the best QLDers had to play for NSW during the initial SOO due to them playing in NSW at the time

Isn't Walker Koori (Yuin) and Murri (Bundjalung)?

The NRL care where he played his first rep game. That's literally their SoO criteria and can be the difference between playing for QLD or NSW.

I don't remember that. It was before my time, but that's not a State of Origin competition. That's a State of League competition. Arthur Beetson playing for NSW prior to 1980 is pretty ridiculous but those were the rules at the time and the NSWRL team unsurprisingly beat the BRL/QRL team on a regular basis. Once they changed it to a State of Origin competition in 1980 you saw the stronger state win the first five years straight and have been highly competitive ever since.

Good game though. An excibition almost as another poster alluded. Satin sheets

Fair to say if you like defense this has NOT been the game for you.

I’d imagine Cleary gets the 7 back if healthy next year (in spite of Moses being very good). Does Luai get back as well then? Walker has been exceptional tonight.

 

[NSWCROW]

QLD have tanked it so we don't sack Fittler lol


Hopefully we stick with Moses now
