FUCK!!
Well done NSW. Two even games, you won the crucial moments. Tonight i couldn't tell you a Blue who was excellent except Maloney. And yet you won. Wait, Latrell Mitchell was good too.
For Qld Ponga was unreal. But the reason they lost, despite being the better team, was Ben Hunt had one of the worst Origin games in history. Fuck mate, are you on the take? Now i know how Bronco supporters felt on GF day a couple of years back. Fuck you Ben Hunt. And fuck you Will Chambers.

The Hunt kick on the 3rd that went dead, not only was it poorly executed but was a terrible decision. Qld had momentum and a man up.
Chambers has had brain explosions throughout his entire league and rugby careers. No surprise again last night.
-
Billy was on fire in the first half, but things went to shambles with Qld play making in the second. Still looked dangerous and the effort was there, but it was a bit aimless and inaccurate. Not that I'm complaining!!
Good to wrap up the series, nice work Freddie!!

That was the game, right there. That kick. Fucking hell.

Not only did we get an Orriiijin Penalty Try (TM), but we also got to hear Phil Gould setting a record for how many times you can demand "That has to be a penalty try!" in 30 seconds.
Four year olds demanding ice cream could take lessons from that performance.

There was a penalty try? What for? It must have been for the most blatant act ever for Origin to have a penalty try - I am disbelief.
So NSW won? Fittler stepped into the coaching role at the right time (with the big hitters from QLD all stepping down), poor Laurie Daley should have coached one more season - he might have finished with a 50% winning record and two series wins.

he doesn't even try to hide it any more. Just another rabid, one-eyed Origin supporter. Only with a mic. Fuck head.
As soon as the TMO decided Cordner was on side, it had to be a PT.
It's probably my own bias shining through, but NSW has won the series based on not much more than some great scramble defense, taking their limited opportunities, and Qld kicking the ball dead at crucial times, early in the count, on 4 separate fucking occassions. Seriously, fuck Hunt. And fuck Chambers.

@donsteppa let’s not forget the great insight he offered up after half time “the first 10 minutes is going to be crucial”.

Justin Marshall can only dream of being anything near as bad as Phil Gould. Lots of work to be done.

Chances of Qld avoiding the sweep looking a lot worse after the weekend.
Napa, Ponga and Inglis injured.
Hunt dropped to the bench, replaced by DCESomehow Wallace and McCulloch retained. Chambers fails to pay for his appalling errors.
Oates in for Inglis. Glasby for Napa.

I was reading that things were frosty between Smith and Cronk after the Storm-Roosters game. It seems most of this is because Smith wasn't happy that Cronk left Melbourne, and they aren't close friends anymore. The same article said Smith and Slater have had their difficulties too.

What sort of mate begrudges a friend making a career decision?
-
Or a family one! Didn't Cronk move to be in Sydney with his missus? It was clear as day that Cronk didn't want a bar of Smith after the game. Sad to piss away years of friendship just because Cronk left the club.
