Fuck, this is fucking hilarious. I cant stop laughing.

They also picked Moggs ahead of Bowen, who they dropped after they lost the first game. BUT STILL BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. I donot understand on what grounds did they pick Moggs?! OF ALL PEOPLE WITH EXPERIENCE AND FUCKING CAPABILITY TO PLAY ORIGIN FOOTBALL, WHY DID THEY PICK MOGGS.

If NSW dnt target Moggs, ill crash-tackle them.

UM BOOKIE. CHRIS WALKER < SHIT. k understood?
Chris Walkers club = 2nd
Chris Walkers ex club = 15th
Chris Walkers other ex club = somewhere shit (rorters)
Chris Walkers ex ex ex club = 1st

Hes a good player Kimi.

And its Mogg.

The selection of Adam Mogg is surprising and, obviously, he isn't as good as a number of players who missed out. IMO, the reason he was chosen is because he is a tall man who can play centre or winger, and will be primarily used to take high bombs out to Gasnier/King or Tahu/Grothe, who are all tall men able to catch the ball.

However, Jacob Lillyman is a gun. It doesn't take long when you watch a Cowboys match to see that this guy has heaps of potential, and not coincidentally, his injury coincided with the form slump of the Cowboys.

He's young, and he's being blooded for experience.

In a series that Queensland will struggle to win now, it's a very good idea.

Most of us here support NSW wholeheartedly, but surely everyone can see the shifting balance of power in Origin now .. Queensland will be almost unbeatable in two or three years.

It's good for the game. Watching NSW win it easily every year is getting boring.

Ahh yes, I stuffed that one up, lol.

There's a reason why I got over 90 for 4-unit Mathematics but only a Band 5 for English :p

well you see, the media gave qld selectors so much crap about (previously) picking specialist fullbacks to play wing that they had to pick a specialist winger so that they can prove the media wrong when the maroons lose game 2...hence the selection of mogg. lillyman is probably more of a tactical ploy to get on graham murray's mind cos of the north qld cowboys connection...

yeah i agree. but i believe NSW will come out with the win AGAIN. i believe next wednesday's game will be a tuff one, but i believe QLD will get the win and cause the origin to go to a 1-1 and NSW will come out with the final game. ive gotta hand it to finch though he played a great game in game one of the series i wonder who will be the star player next game??
and to all the blue fans out there GO THE BLUES!!!

Queensland dont have a chance with all the Parramatta Eels players, playing well for NSW. Pity it is not shown when they play for the Eels at club level.

Finch has to go. Anasta has to go.

QLD played really well. And like I said in the NRL thread they tackled smart. The tackled low and around the legs and didn't give NSW forwards a chance to make any extra metres. NSW didn't spread the ball at all. Not until the last 5 minutes when they scored their only try.

well i think i can say we all know who Mogg is now. in case you're not sure, his the guy on the wing for QUEENSLAND who scored 2 tries tonight.

what a game, what a performance and i cant wait for game 3. great work by the whole team, there was no area on the field NSW dominated and our forwards started playing from the kick off. it was also great to see Finch playing how he does week in week out for the roosters. how good was Hunt??? glad Tate played and im loving Hodges.

cant get too cocky though, NSW know's first hand what happens when you do ... you lose by 4 converted tries!!! QUEENSLANDER!!! :D

king and grothe played well tho and beaver tried his heart out, but the forwards got hammered... never quite recover from that. lmao mogg, funny if he gets dropped for inglis next game

good game queensland...looking forward to melbourne now


in retrospect, i reckon the finch/anasta combo didnt play that badly (asides from anasta scoring a couple of qld's tries with that pass >_>), but qld's halves in thurston/lockyer were always going to be far better (on paper and on the day...they are the 2 halves for the australian team after all). The NSW forwards really had a shocker though, QLD's forwards were all over them from the kickoff.

I'd like to see a matt orford/scott hill combo for melbourne (although i know it won't happen). After all, it'd be an old storm halves combo playing in front of a storm crowd :)
