Finally a convention for the blue collar nerd like myselfOriginally Posted by griffin
On football side I have to agree with Sharky, Trunks. Where as the refs made alot of bad calls and I understand that they wanted to have a free flowing game with few penalties I still think QLD had the calls go their way. Wasn't surprised that QLD won I was surprised that it took them 75 minutes to win the game. My thoughts on the game...
Soward- Surprised me with his defence (especially his scramble) but he is a 5/8 he is supposed to generate attack-something I didn't see him do.
Dugan- Apart from one knock played well for his origin debut-good enough to keep Hayne out (I hope)
Jennings- The ONLY NSW player who looked dangerous. Played great. Would like to see Uate switched to the left hand side as I think they would be dangerous together.
Bird- Only set up that try because he didn't do anything else all game and was well rested.
Gasnier- Is too old now. He's lost that half a second which is vital in origin
Morris- I think the look on Dugans face tells the story
Scott- Surprised he wasn't penalised everytime he tackled someone. Played very dirty
Ennis- I had to laugh when he fumbled that ball. Also once NSW hit the lead he gave QLD the ball back on their own 40. Might as well of handed them the game. Hopefully he and Young will be replace by Farah and Hinchcliffe for the next game, but that wont happen under supercoach Stuart
No need to breakdown QLD. They proved once again that not only are they a team of champions but they are also a champion team. Although at one stage Jacob Lillyman was NSW best player
