State of Origin

[Carlos Parra]

The refereeing, as usual, is atrocious.

[Eggspert]

Lindsay Collins 1st run for the maroons has never been seen with the same intensity for the chooks.
wish he ran like that for us

Lindsay is running crazy fast & hard. Looks like he's giving an extra 25% tonight compared to what I've seen for us this year.?

Great first half, some great hits out there especially wighton.

I can see that Klein knows how to ref well but the game management is annoying as usual.
Only a couple of calls at least.

Hopefully the blues come home strong, Cleary needs a stronger second half for that to happen.

[DP1990]

Proud of all the Roosters boys playing tonight.



All playing strong and doing well for their respective teams.

[Rooster_6]

Enjoyable first half of viewing, very high quality game from a physicality and speed of play point of view.

Neither set of spines seem to have been able to get a hold of the game, Cleary’s kicking game has been a touch off in regards to accuracy. Feel like if he can get that right in the second half NSW will get the win. Small margins in such a tight game.

[Eggspert]

Rubbish, he’s been great the last month of footy.

Against the Sharks & Panthers he was brutal like he’s been tonight.

Well ch9 must be playing around with the TV coverage because he is definitely running a fair bit faster on my TV.

Be nice to have a few more villains, At least Munster is there for QLD, but we are missing Latrell.

No forwards battle or matchups, with our backline taking more hit ups than the forwards.

I’ll always watch origin, but it has lost all its aura.

[milanja]

Unlucky to be behind honest opinions of the Teddy no try was that line ball or marginally forward?

If the qld one was forward then so was Toops

[DP1990]

Lindsay Collins is on fire. He's been playing great for us for the last few weeks but tonight he's gone to another level !


Hopefully, he brings this level of intensity back to us. Playing Origin looks like to have unlocked Lindsay and he's blown out all the cobwebs related to his ACL etc !

[nayfo]

Rubbish, he’s been great the last month of footy.

Against the Sharks & Panthers he was brutal like he’s been tonight.

How is it Rubbish?
I never said he hasn’t been playing well for us.
I said he has never ran with the same intensity for us as he did with his first run tonight. Which is actually a true statement as I have never seen him run that hard EVER!

[Roosterfarian]

Collins fitting in with the rest of the former Roosters QLD forwards like Miles. Will put in a shift for QLD but not for his club.

[MCMLXVI]

A hell of a lot of fanfare for a concept that is well past its use by date. The first half showed no more talent or skills than what you see in a club round. Just hoping that the club's three players remain un-injured. I'm having to watch this online (9now), as there is no Channel 9 broadcast where I live. This has made me realise that I am lucky that there is no Channel 9 broadcast here. Atrocious.

How is Ryan Matterson in the team? The bloke is a reserve grader at best

His defence was lazy on multiple occasions. Literally watched Munster run past him

I would have had Jake Turbo instead of him wth does Freddy do with S.Crichton?
