Well done Qld!

Until NSW get a better coach and stop picking people out of position, there's another maroon dynasty here.

Of course for a lot of us the game was ruined 2 mins in with yet another injury to tom.
 
Just some fun Origin facts to lighten the dark mood after Turbo's injury.

All of these were while they were Manly players. Origin stats before or after playing for Manly are not counted here.

Most Origin games by a Manly coach: Graham Lowe (Qld) – 6 (1991–92)

You're going to like this answer.....lol

Blame Super League. They were the ones who first brought in that the video ref can not rule on forward passes.

No one has seen fit to change it in the 26 years since 1997 ... but Super League were the first.
Ribot has a lot to answer for 🤬
 
Des Hasler should be the next SOO coach.
Great at promoting the 'us vs them' and underdog mentality.
Plus, he wont have a Salary Cap to mess with.
 
After all is said and done The Superior QLD Maroon DNA has done it again

The moral of the story ..
NSW CAN KEEP CHANGING THEIR SUPERIOR TEAMS
BUT THEY CAN NEVER CHANGE THEIR INFERIOR DNA

His players tend to like him too.

The one area that might let him down is his sometimes awkward demeanour with the press.

If they (NSW) were happy to roll with that, he is an option.

Isn't your DNA from Newtown, Sydney, NSW?
Are you saying you are inferior to a Queenslander?
What a magical age we live in when our DNA evolves when we cross an imaginary line.
Newtown,that's in Qld....
All good,just a bit of fun.....
 
Time to pick an origin forward pack.
Taking into consideration no Jake or Api.......
Haas
Cook
Martin
Olakauatu
Kaloamatangi
Murray
-------
McInnes
Bird
Saifiti(Jacob)
Paseka
Preston as 19th man or even as a starter.

I don't give a fark about Origin, my worst fears came to fruition, all along we've being saying that Tom will make slow progress right up until the time he declares himself fit and ready for Origin,and the rest is now history, he's been playing like a cow all year, when he was available to play, bar two games against the Raiders and Dolphins, who incidently had had both flippers missing that day, and stupid Fitler thought he was ready, serves him right if they don't renew his contract.
