Origin - Your Thoughts?

[Will on the hill]

It should be played every 3 years, 3 games over 3 days straight. Survival of the fittest. Pretty boys not eligible.

Or take it 1 step further and play 1 big game. 240 minutes, 25 man squad with 20 interchanges.

Now you're talking! Maybe thrown in some lions or tigers and the option for some elephants in the front row?

We have to much fire power in the fwds and the centres, the Blues should win this in a cantor...but then again I said this last year..mmm.

I'm ok with it on a Wednesday night, I just wish it would actually start before 8:20pm.

It is a ridiculously late finish, especially with our love of reviewing everything.

Today is why I farkin hate Origin in its current form. You put Tom & DCE in our team today, and we win. (And Jake, but he’s injured so wouldn’t be playing a way).

I feel like I have spent most of my life being disappointed by the Blues so it is hard to care very much. I just hope no Manly players get hurt! I would prefer it was played after the season ends so clubs don't get weakened so much.

After witnessing a mistake riddled football game today, it will be refreshing to watch a high quality game on Wednesday night.

The lack of direction our backs showed in this match highlighted just how important DCE is to this team. Surely even Silvertails' most ill-informed DCE critics must now reconsider their opinions.

I agree we missed cherry. He has a lot of strong points. But the question really is did we miss a 1.2 million cherry more than we might’ve missed a 700 000 halfback given the increased quality in other positions we could then afford.

Hypothetical, and impossible to answer; but still a worthwhile thing to ponder

I think we would have won comfortably today if DCE had played. I can't remember a more inept display by a Sea Eagles no. 7.
