2017 State of Origin Game 2

[Pablo]

It's all good. Mitchell the origin champion will get his team home

 

[Harvies elbow]

I thought I'd give origin another go but now I'm over the rort.
It's beyond a joke.
Well done chechin

 

[Pittwater Legend]

Morris, Jake T, Josh Jackson and Dugan have been great tonight.

Hayne though has ****ing lost this game with a horrible performance. What a **** night he has had.

 

[HappilyManly]

Sad! 16-18

Blues stopped scoring at 40 mins

 

[Pittwater Legend]

Jarryd Hayne you ****ing gimp. If only you passed to Morris to score if the first half to go up 4 tries to 1. Your errors didn't help either

 

[eaglebuzz]

Ceccin has to be the most corrupt RL referee ever.

I knew at the start of the match that NSW would be the better team but lose because only one team would be refereed. This crap is rigged and it's so predictable.

 

[HappilyManly]

Massive choke so far here.
Back to normal

Twice the Blues were illegally tackled running in for a bomb. Then Gagai drops the ball and the Ref gives them a strip penalty

 

[Pablo]

The second half was a reminder of the last 10 years. Dumb penalties, dumb low percentage plays, a half back who NEVER makes an impact and always fails to come up with the right play at crucial times.
So frustrating

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

So very predictable, said it earlier in the thread, refs would give QLD an advantage to even up the series.

Thurston' last game , Chan Nein wanting a gazillion viewers, Suncorp needing a sell out, totally scripted!!

Best player for QLD, Matt Checcin.

That said NSW just not good enough in the second half!!

 

[eaglebuzz]

Certainly need to stop picking Pearce. I think Hayne's time is done too.

 

[Simonmyers11]

Did the blues get even one penalty??

 

[cherry_poppins]

Too many selfish dickhead heroes

 

[eaglebuzz]

Did the blues get even one penalty??

Not in the second half

 

[Budgie]

It felt, right from the getgo that the refs had been instructed that Game Three was to be the decider. Penalties that NEVER happen in Origin and all against NSW.
Throw in Jarryd 'I can do it all myself' Hayne and odd interchange use by Daley and the NRL got its wish.

 

[HK_Eagle]

I'm not one for conspiracy theories, but gee there were some dodgy calls going Qld's way after they were dominated. I guess it's just coincidental that the calls favoured the team being dominated up to that point and kept the richest series in the game alive for another game.

 

[Robeagle]

Nsw hopeless dogs dogs this is the end of origin

 

[Simonmyers11]

Hayne you idiot. cost us the win. Blues gave QLD a lot of chances to get back into the game in that second half.

 

[eaglebuzz]

Sadly this referees deciding matches BS is only going to stop when fans start voting with their feet and their wallets. Until then it's only going to keep getting worse.

 

[Pablo]

Up 16 to 12, 5 mins to go.....got them pinned near their line.....Graham decides it's a great time to strip it. Dumb.
Game over

 

[Supreme Leader]

Just heard Checcin was Qld's players MVP. Got the game ball.
