Buzzing, can't wait for the game to start, all hail Setanta!

DONT READ IF YOU DONT WANNA KNOW SCORE






























A contreversial decision against the blues, now the tides turned. The maroons steamrolling making tons of metres, so fast attack with support players. Excellent rugby.

18-6 HT to QLD

Jarrod hayne with his explosive runs and passes, any thoughts on the first NO TRY decision I thought it was abit harsh myself.

Billy slaters excellent 1 on 1 try saving tackle.

Quality rugby.

Interesting first half, NSW had a try chalked off which should have stood and then the Maroons turned on the style for a 5-10 minute period. Since then NSW have re established field position and look quite handy in attack especially down the left.

Fingers crossed for a good second half

All the crucial calls have gone with Queensland. That early try that NSW had chalked off was a killer for them. The blues have showed some composure since going 18 - 2 down, lets hope they can make a game of it in the 2nd half.

Was a definite try for me, i'm struggling to understand how they couldn't give it.

But they try they did score shouldn't have stood anyways as it was a forward pass from Hayne. Swings and roundabouts

Maybe it's our French friend.

Lets hope he is still our friend after Sundays game!

After the replayed it 7-8 times surely it has to be given "by the benefit of the doubt"

For some unknown, strange reason ive always been a blues fan. Im not expecting to much, but hope its a gd, tight intense second half.

They should just replace the video ref with a rock, paper, scissors system now they have 2 video refs! Would save alot of cash

The commentators did say the linesman was ok with it. So if he is why go to the video ref? The linesman has the best view.

Just goes to show that no matter how many "adjudicators" you have on the field, there are still plenty of poor decisions. Thought NSW should have had a pen 2 mins from the end of the 1st half for interference. Instead, the pen goes the other way for incorrect play the ball. We should have a bit more sympathy for our own refs under the circumstances.

Great game, though.

Abit of luck for NSW with some debateable calls, Craig Wing made a big difference when he came on, robbie farrar then doubled up with wing in the hooking posistion and abit of luck with the kick from farrar results in a try for hayne

24-18 GAME ON

Come On NSW

cmon blues

What a game all these people who suggest "since their aussie it must be better" but thats the best game ive seen all year.

Spirited come back from the Blues and i think cme the 2nd game they'll be a much better team. The 10 minute spell where Queensland racked up three tries really hurt them. They did show alot of guts and character to make a real game of it late on.

Jennings, Creigh and Harrision stood out for me.

Whenever I watch Greg Inglis I can't help but wonder how he would have compared to Mal Meninga.

It would have been great to see them in the same backline or even better go head to head with each other.

I think Queensland backline is frightening. Falou, Inglis, Hodges and Boyd with Slater at fullback. If Meninga was in there too i wouldn't bother turning up.

Would be good to see Inglis v Meninga though. Would be a very interesting tussle

Just watched the game after work . Quite suprised how well nsw came back into it . Poor poor decision with the hayne try, why do we have linesmen any more ?? He had the best view of anyone in the stadium .. Unbeleivable ! If they had scored then what a game it would of been , that 10 minute 1st half queensland spell was the end of it really.
Thought o'donnell was great for nsw.....who wasn't for Queensland ?

Thought smith & thurstons kicking kept QLD in it tbh.
Quality game cant wait for the next one. when is it btw?

3 weeks time

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Only bad thing about todays game was that it ended.

Go Queensland !

Just watched it and once again best rugby you will ever see. Also great to see the King looking so well.

baby blues could have easy won that game
