AS IT SAYS ON THE TIN, ANY TALK ANYWHERE ELSE OR DELIBERATELY SPOILING IT, GETS A FREE BANNING

NSW should have the forward battle but I'm just not sure where there points will come from. Queensland have the best halves and backs, so they should come away with the win.

As I said in the 'Terrace' for those who don't know the game is on Premier Sports (TV) and legally online via [url=http://www.rlbet.co.uk/go/bet365ls/Bet365.com[/url

Weird decision to go for two there.

Then terrible decision to let it bounce from the blues.

Now another knock-on. Poor quality so far.

Ref's still cant make the correct call and there is two of them!

I find it so frustrating, watching some of the most talented footballers in the game play five drives and kick. Throw the ball about a bit and put on an exhibition! Origin is, after all, a glorified qualification system for the the right to pull on the famous green and gold.

If England were to ever play such a dull brand of rugby league, there would be a ten-page thread on this website with people vowing never to watch a test match again.

ZZZZZZZ

Well, that's 55 minutes (all I lasted, before I nodded off) of my life I'll never get back. Tedious beyond belief. Just like a Coldplay/U2/Adele album, the great and the good will say how good it was, whilst admitting (to themselves) that it was poor, and they'd watched Homes Under The Hammer on BBC1, instead.

Give me SL anyway.

All that glitters ain't green and gold.

I'm done with Origin, it'd like watching 26 very skilled men all coached by Brian Noble ZZZZzzzzzzz

English rugby league's problem is that we don't have enough confidence in ourselves and our own product.

If that match had been an England test, followed by a match-fixing scandal the next day, there would be utter an meltdown with people declaring the sport dead. If Sky Sports dared to suggest it had been a good game, there would also be a 16 page thread calling for Stevo's P45.

Yet the Aussies and most people here gobble up the propaganda and guess what, their game gets money and exposure as a result!
