  • Obviously I'd have gone with Finefuiaku over Nikora but TBH, the Knights backrowers gave him a bit of a bath on Sunday.
  • 2 backs on the bench is interesting.
  • Other than that, pretty good. Should get the job done.

I would have picked Sharpe and Lucus in the NSW squad I don't rate Martin these days. Sharpe means no two specialist backs on the bench as he covers everything. But they won't make the call with Cleary hence Moses is there and Strange is shafted.

Queensland will win and win well. Laurie Daley was the best player and best captain for NSW at Origin but as a coach and analyst he's completely fried but his own fault for accepting this job.

How long has it been since a winger was man of the series?
 
Queensland will win by a Cricket score the big difference Laurie Daley isn't their coach.

Time for Isaiya Katoa to be the NSW halfback next year.
 
This was a bit predictable. Firstly this is the best team NSW have picked by far. Secondly, QLD going in a hot favourites despite the previous sentence was always going to be a worry.
 
Tough game. A few 50-50 calls went their way but the better team on the night won. Ponga and Walker were pretty poor. Nanai should've been starting and Nikora not in the team.
 
Gotta say i disagree with the Best try (even though it was a stellar effort) it clearly touched Bostock i also disagree that plath was involved in the play for the disallowed try. That said you cannot let any opposition walk 2 tries in within 10m of the posts and you cannot miss those goals. Also how was Young not binned, he was already on report for a shot.

i think 20-18 for NSW would have been a fair scoreline. and in the future people will just see the win. However some of those decisions start to make people ask questions about the integrity of the refs and the bunker which can only be bad for the game.
