2025 State of Origin Game 3 - Other Team Lists and Game Discussion

[Haddaway]

That's nonsense

No it isnt.

When is the last time you have seen NSW pick guys out of the blue?

Maybe its because they dont have to because of Depth, who knows, but Nsw dont do it. They wouldnt pick a Robert Toia, or blood a new centre for game 3 decider.

Qld could have easily put Hammer and played Walsh.

Zero

He was a fish out of water

Dominated in every run and hardly made a dominant tackle.

There is a reason he didn’t come back on. He had nothing to offer.

Even though King had a good 1st game??
Righto then

 

[Art Vandelay]

Does buzz know what tp Gus uses to wipe his arse

Like the annoying ex GF who can’t let go..

 

[Art Vandelay]

NSW suck dogs balls. Fucking spuds same shit every fucking year. Fuck Daley and fuck the critics who know fuck all

Daley was always the wrong choice.
Awesome as a player but completely out of his depth in the coaching game.

Next year for blues…

Need to change attitude / mindset / culture

Game plan was terrible. The amount of times clearly ran it on the 4th tackle meaning we only had luai as the kicking option was terrible. So frustrating to watch.

For me Cleary really failed the team…albeit injured.

New coach = Michael Ennis (qld have way better options)

Need to move away from Penrith game plan. Doesn’t work in origin.

Game 1 side if fit:

Mitchell *
Too
Best *
Crichton
Lomax
Burton * (kicking game is suited to origin imo)
Moses
Haas
Kenny *
Barnett
Young *
Preston *
Yeo

Watson
Kolamantangi * (plan #A rotate with Haas)
Martin *
King * (plan #A rotate with Barnett)

18th - Angus Crichton
19th - Izzy Katoa
20th - Jacob Kiraz

3 smokies: Egan or Korisau for extra dimension to attack, Strange

No Murray - likely injured again…

Rewatch the game champ

If you look at the stats on nrl.com pretty much all the forwards were poor. Compare the number of minutes King played to some others and some of the stats were pretty close.

Some of us love Lozza Daley....

Spencer found out the hard way this series that it takes more than some hectic neck Tatts and a big mouth to be an origin player.

Pissed and moaned that QLD didn't kick it to him in game 1.

Had a total of 12 runs for 120m in 70 minutes of football across the next 2 games. But no honestly, keep picking him.

You remember a guy called Freddy? He didn't always get it right, but some guys he picked at the time were questioned, yet ended up playing great.

Loz's assistant coaches at a disadvantage, missing half the game when Loz turns his head

I gather you are from QLD

 

[brittpower]

standard of living is far much better in Brisbane than in Sydney.

you may make more money in Sydney but you also spend more in rent and travel. this is not accounting for time you waste stuck in the traffic every day going from point A to B

sydney better mate.

Given every opportunity.
Very impressive figures (not)

I know public speaking in pressure circumstances can be hard but Loz' pressers are Des-like in stumbling over his word salads and umming and arghing.

No wonder the journos were asking Yeo so many questions. He was the only one of the 2 who was even a little bit coherent lol.

If his training, pre-game, half time and post game talks to the players are anything like the meandering messages he puts forth in his pressers, then that doesn't exactly help NSW ...where you are primarily a motivator with that calibre of league player.

NSW board / hierarchy is infiltrated with QLD people. That is why they picked the specialist in failure. It is also rigged to keep the has been series alive.
