Come on NSW, beat these dirty ****s!

Same Thaiday seemingly making a habit of coming in the backdoor to get his hands dirty.

 

[Craig]

What a try saver by Slater.

 

[Son Of Coco]

**** it, why does that lisping little **** have to score the match winner. Was hoping to claim a 1-0 victory as I only saw 1 match...couldn't even do that.

Salvage some pride NSW by knocking someone out on the kick return

Gordon should've thrown the ball at Inglis there for having the audacity to tackle him.

 

[Bobisback]

Had $5 on Boyd/Qld(1-12), last game had $5 on Inglis/Qld(13+) game before had $5 on Hayne/Qld(1-12)

Good year.

Geez fair effort that.

Anyway I had a great time last night. Didn't expect to either but it was a really high quality game. Really happy that we finally showed some spine. Origin as a concept really needed a good competetive game to give it some oxygen.

 

[howardj]

Agree.

Well said.

 

[Burgey]

Bloody hell Bob, you've had a great series..

Edit: and btw, can someone tell me how Watmough didn't score that try? I mean well done Slater and all, but it was like Watmough had to try to not score when he first went over the line.

 

[Mister Wright]

Queenslander!!!!!

He was far too busy pretending to carry two huge suitcases.

 

[Johnners]

Surely Ennis' last origin match for a few years, dire first half and then basically cost NSW the game with his blow-up at the end. He & Thaiday go well together really...

 

[Ausage]

Queenslander!!!!!

Was that you during the minute's silence at Suncorp?

Nah mate, I was there though.

Round 17

Burgey 4
James90 4
Ausage 3
alternative 3
Craig 3
Clapo 2
ripper 2
Mister Wright 1
morgieb 1
vic_orthdox 1
Brumby 1
NUFAN 1

Burgey and James top the week with the former wisely resisting the call to tip his Eels in Auckland. After a neck and neck battle at the top of the table, Nufan fails to tip for the second week in a row, and will be cut if he fails to tip in round 18.

Overall

Ausage 70.4
Clapo 67.5
ripper 67.2
Burgey 66.4
alternative 66.2
Craig 65.3
NUFAN 65.3
Mister Wright 64.6
James90 63.3
morgieb 63.3
vic_orthdox 60.2
Brumby 59.1

James pulls well away from the bottom of the table with his strong score this week. Nufan's failure to tip puts him well back in the pack just a 3 weeks after he was equal first.

Seem to be a lot of certainties this week, surprisingly. Would normally tip Souths in us/Easts, but I don't think we're as good without Luke.

Anyone who says our game is suffering because of loss of players to other codes or England need watch the two games last night. Even without the Broncos playing there were two very high quality games... In all seriousness, they were two evenly fought, challenging games, where the winners weren't decided until the final hooter.

I don't want a sprint race come season end, I want a Lockyer v Marshall field goal competition. Two fantastic field goals this week!
