Did you guys see this in Fairfax? Steve Mascord. He's always been an ok journo to read. But he's writing all the wrong things here. Its not as simple as just switching off a game you have watched all your life, Steve...

It's official: Origin is now so good that thousands of conspiracy theorists refuse to believe it's not scripted. That's right, the mob that reckons chemtrails are poisoning angels and Harold Holt runs a thriving Guangzhou lamington shop also refuse to believe random events in a game could create as much pathos, drama and spectacle as we saw last Wednesday night.
So they're flooding social media with zany theories about head office ordering a Queensland victory. Presumably they also ordered Johnathan Thurston's shoulder injury so he could kick his sideline conversion and Jarryd Hayne not to pass to Brett Morris. Everyone's in on it!
As Set of Six said elsewhere last week, why would you continue to watch a sport you believe is fixed? If you're calling out people over their integrity, have some yourself and don't support an industry you believe to be deceitful and corrupt.
