What ever time Cross gets it not enough...that **** has no place in the game...Dougs would have been great to see again in Origin

Technically he will get the 13th spot, because he will start with Flannery to the bench.Craig said:Carroll gets the 17th spot if he comes through fine this weekend for Brisbane.
That sums it up for me. NSW were trying to get the ball into the hands of their best playmaker whenever possible. QLD weren't. I watched till 28 - 0, and Lockyer only had the chance to kick a bomb once up to that stage, and was unlucky a try didn't come of it.broncoman said:no way, you know what the problem with lockyer was, he didnt get the ball enough.
yeh which is whay i suspect it was part of the game plan to go to the 2 cowboys playmakers more often, i guess they were trying the old double bluff on the blues, what a great decision is turned out to be,,,thewizard1o1 said:Lockyer is the captain and cheif playmaker, if he wants the ball he should demand it and command the team.
that would pretty much sum it up from a QLD perspectivebroncoman said:I HAVE NEVER SEEN A QUEENSLAND TEAM PLAY WITH SUCH LITTLE PASSION, IT WAS COMPLETELY DISGRACEFUL AND NOT GOOD ENOUGH, DONT BOTHER TURNING UP NEXT YEAR UNLESS YOU WANT TO WIN...
and thats all im gonna say...
I don't know what it is about rugby league but it is obvious clubs don't like sacking caoches during the season no matter how poor the team is going. If he was a football/soccer manager or in any other sport he would have been sacked long ago.broncoman said:yeh which is whay i suspect it was part of the game plan to go to the 2 cowboys playmakers more often, i guess they were trying the old double bluff on the blues, what a great decision is turned out to be,,,
Bye bye Michael Hagan...
At the start he wasn't useless, because if he was he wouldn't have made that try saving tackle in the first half when Minichello looked like he was going to score.broncoman said:no way, you know what the problem with lockyer was, he didnt get the ball enough. Im not sure if it was partof the game plan but Cameron Smith always went to Bowen or Thurston, if it was deliberate it was pathetic, the selectors, the coach and half the team should never be seen again...
The back three collectively had the poorest match ive ever seen from a back three in an origin match ever....
Matt Bowen = USELESS
i heard Matt Elliott would be interested, he'd be ok if he had a few more ideas on teaching teams to attack...Craig said:I don't know what it is about rugby league but it is obvious clubs don't like sacking caoches during the season no matter how poor the team is going.

Who is the next best choice? We can't keep going back to Wayne Bennett.
I heard that Craig Bellemy was being talked about getting the job, but his is from NSW i think. The guy i would go for is John Lang, but they maybe be looking for a more long term option.broncoman said:i heard Matt Elliott would be interested, he'd be ok if he had a few more ideas on teaching teams to attack...
I think Karmichael Hunt may have similar problems in defence and under the high ball as Bowen and Slater. Not as great but it will be something that the Blues will target again next season if his fullback. On the back of the last two games Schifcofske looks the best option.broncoman said:Matt Bowen should never wear the Qld #1 again on the back of that performance, Karmichael Hunt should be given the job in 06...
