Nah Jake is just a plod, I don't really rate him. I think we missed Cam Murray in the middle tbh.

Walker? Where the bloody hell was he?

walker was needed. one point I heard gus say, "needed to get the pass out to walker" and cleary got snuffed with the ball.
who knows, QLD were just the better team again

Thought Angus was really strong all series, Wade will never get near a SOO jersey again if he can't play better than he did this season, even if Boyd finally stumbles away from the game.

To be honest I can't see Cordner playing in the near future with all of his concussions.

Angus Crichton, Victor Radley and Cameron Murray are the future NSW back row. With Frizzell keeping his spot too.

Who are you playing in the second row out of Murray and Boo?

How was the streaker/ pitch invader in the 7th minute.

That has to be one of the earliest, didn’t even to get to watch 10mins of the game.

Friz is weird... Looks like he's going a thousand miles an hour the whole game but doesn't get far

I would have had Robson over Walker tonight - did he do anything? Not gunna bag Jnr Chin, at least he was trying things

Yo was good for the blues , our capewell

and wtf was with that leg pull/holding down in the last few minutes, NSW got 6 again but no 10 in the bin? that **** was blatant as **** from the QLD defenders

oh well I got my holmes first try scorer and anytime try scorer bets paid out in the first 10 mins before he had a hand transplant with pomeroy and turned to ****

QLD shut down the Blues backline really well tonight, didnt give toops, JAC or wighton much at all . cook either . deserved winners in the end

Friend should absorb DCE's match payment

Also had a few gold coins on QLD for the win

Next series should be huge

People call Gould biased, fair enough, but not enough is mentioned about Vautin, who is far worse. He’s a dead set cheerleader. Why is it so hard to ask for balanced commentary?

You want bland neutral commentators? Origin is about rivalry, banter with opposition fans. It pretty much divides all RL fans for a bit. Are you Blue or are you Maroon? There's no middle ground. Imagine the build up on telly if it were 6 blokes who didn't care presenting it. No thanks.

NSW no chance now. QLD too many leg ups from the ref.

Has a team you backed ever not been dudded by the ref?

Agree with this. Imagine what he could have been here, such a waste.

Anyway Bennett out foxxed Freddy & NSW. Did enough in G1, showed them some different in G2 then switched it up for the decider. Welch was a massive inclusion he was brilliant. DCE's D was awesome. Munster in an incredible instinctual footballer. Harry Grant is a name we'll hear for a long time - he's got the makings of Smith in service, vision, smarts, workrate but he's got a running game Smith never had.

I had QLD H2H @ 3.10 then a little more on Val anytime into QLD 1-12 @ 8.20 so I was urging QLD not to score at 20-12.

I’m not talking about the 6 blokes on the pre game. As long as both sides are represented equally and given equal time in the build up, I’ve got no problem with the ex footballers offering insight into their states teams.

I’m talking about the play by play commentary during the match, which should always be fair and balanced no matter what sport it is. Commentary doesn’t need to be biased cheerleading for it not to be bland. You can disagree with that all you want but in my humble opinion, it’s the way it should be.
