The Football (all sorts) Thread

[Sinnertwin]

One of the dumbest halves of footy I have ever watched a team play... way to blow a 16 to 6 lead at HT NSW...

Indeed.
It was right there for the taking, but in true NSW style they just switched off & started licking windows. Watch the Maroons take Game 3

Defeat from the jaws of victory once again.
When the forwards for NSW were so good for the first half, they looked so dangerous, then they went to defensive mode... that never works, no matter the sport.

Queensland to send Thurston, Slater and Cronk (and possibly Smith will retire from rep footy this year) out winners and then NSW will always have that stigma that they had to wait for the QLD legends to retire to win series.

-EDIT-
Just also wanted to say how good (in a good way) it was to see Boyd Cordner's reaction to the loss, you could see how much it meant to him (and also that his calf muscle was probably killing him!) If the last NSW had cared and that much passion, it may have won NSW more than 1 series in the last decade.

Character statements from Malcolm Turnbull & Waheed Ali for Bachar Houli on a striking charge. Really?

With friends like that I wonder why the tribunal didn't increase the ban from 2 weeks to 8 weeks?

A good win by LA to start the season. Potential for finally a winning season.

Just like the game on Saturday. The Tigers outnumber the Crows and the pressure proves to be too great.
