Alrighty! It now comes down to Game 3 to decide if NSW will walk away with the glory, or crawl back into their hole for another year.

Where: Green Peppercorn, Civic Hotel

When: Wed 12th July - 6:30/7pm till late (kick-off @ 8pm but probably be a late start)

Cost: Whatever you feel like spending

 

Some of the boys will be having dinner before moving over to the bar to watch the game over drinks and smokes. If you're free, come on over.

I'm running down to Melbourne and back, should touch down round 7-ish*. I'll throw some jeans in the car and hopefully be there for a smoke by 8:30. 

*fingers crossed.

Based on that, we are no chance. Congratulations Ken, another win for for your mob.

I would love it if NSW boycotted Origin and the Wallabies boycotted the Bledisloe.

Just to take the annual joy away from Qld and the AB

i hope i will be.

just let me know when it happens!

more seriously, did not expect that. but nsw cannot find anyone to manage the game. pearce, maloney - good players at a certain level but JT, cronk, smith, they are not. a collection of very good players wandering around. did nsw have a game plan? because as far as i could see, they did not. someone must take the blame (that said, please pick pearce again next year).

Ken, 

It truly feels like it (Qld dominance) will never end. If you think of the first three halves of the series, the turnaround is even more amazing. 

It's easy to see in hindsight, of course going up to Qld for a decider is a near impossible task. That said, I thought our team which on paper appeared better than Qld's, could do it.

From our point of view, Daley is to blame. He must go. I cannot see someone like Bellamy losing this series for the Blues. When Bellamy was losing SOS he faced the best ever Qld team (my opinion). 

Our lot were clueless. I won't say that it's apathy. Qld took Origin far more seriously in the early days than NSW did but now the desire is equal. Saying that it means more to Qld only serves to diminish their achievements. Your state is just better at footy.

(That said, your Broncs underachieve lol)
