2021 State of Origin Game 2 - Other Team Lists and Game Discussion

Wouldn't it be funny if coates comes out and has a blinder and scores a hat trick tonight..

This one SHOULD be a closer game, but there is no reason why NSW can't win 13+ once again. I mean look at those backlines and compare.

Unless NSW forwards get absolutely dominated and NSW have no possession inside QLD's half for long periods of time, then I can't see QLD keeping it within 1-12.

The fact that he played for QLD juniors don’t mean shit.

SBW played for NSW at junior level but was still ineligible for Origin.

Stop crying because you’re not allowed to break the rules.

i asked my son give me a first try scorer for my multi, he said Cleary show and go, fingers crossed, added some value to the bet

Lol I heard him interviewed on that bloke in a bar podcast where he said he came to Australia at 14 or 15

Just watched it. What a goose

Yet peanuts still say it's unfair

 

[Haddaway]

"His life long dream"

"It's not fair"

Just LOL

 

[bradyk]

This should be NSW 40+

 

[CrittaMagic69]

SIUUUUUUU!!!

 

[GTOWN]

Just because the peanut and his manager incorrectly filled out a form? Basically they lied and got away with it… until now

QLD should just say the same about luai and all the islanders forwards blues have. Doubt they'll get proof in time for the game either.. bit of a joke.. why don't NRL maintain a list of eligible players. When you sign an nrl contract your SOO eligibility is determined and can only be removed if you represent another tier 1 nation

And I would add to that if you have already played origin, you can't play for any tier one nation other than Australia.

Adrian Lam played for PNG and Tonie Carroll for NZ after playing for Qld.

Let's face it the main reason the rules were changed was because of how Greg Inglis from Macksville played for them.

So if you've been born in another country & your father played SOO then you will be able to play? It does ask the question for whom - does this mean that if your father played for QLD then you can play but for NSW no?

Matt Rogers played for Qld. His father Steve played for NSW. I know a guy from Golf who coached Matt in the Sharks juniors until he was 14 before he moved to Qld.

But was he born overseas?

 

[gbrussell]

But was he born overseas?

Not sure but I doubt it.

 

[Greenmachine121]

Qld team looks rubbish

 

[Moedogg]

Why is it petty from NSW? QLD have been breaking the rules for years.

I just think NSW have enough talent to win the game and don't need to give QLD excuses.

 

[Moedogg]

I think Sutton will be decide who wins this game tonight.

I suspect you are right.

This. Lets also add Greg Inglis into that as well who played his junior football in NSW for a NSW club or Brad Thorn who actually played QLD then went and played for the All Blacks which theoretically should've made him ineligible as he played not only in a rival code but also a rival nation.

QLD never complain when the chips are stacked against NSW. Imagine if that Greg Inglis try in 2012 which was a clear cut knock on was awarded to James Tedesco tonight, the uproar will be huge. NSW took it on the chin and accepted it and we all witnessed the biggest dynasty from QLD which in all fairness was well deserved as they had an immortal spine. But flip that around and the about of sooking and whinging from QLDers would be utterly insufferable

Get the f*ck over it seriously
