He did well but Hayne is top notch. Hayne could play 6 but I can't see them changing Pearce and Soward.

There's something a miss with Hayne, Phil Gould said on the Sunday Roast that he's not very good to have around.

Maybe Stuarts got the same vibe?

The impression I get when watching Parra is that other players can't stand him so that may be a contributing factor.

Absolute cracker , The best I've seen NSW play in years . Paul Gallen was immense today My motm by a mile.

It was NSW at their best and Queensland were way off their game, no chance are NSW going to Suncorp and winning in Lockyers last ever Origin.

Gallen was sensational as were Pearce, Uate and Mannah.

Aye , NSW are going to have to do it tough to get anything in Brisbane .

hands up who said minichello is past it? ... thought he rolled back the years today

He did play well, still wouldn't want him on a three year deal though.

Gallen was sensational as were Pearce, Uate and Mannah.

Thought all the NSW pack played out of there skins, was really good 2 watch some quality RL, were light years behind the NRL..!

I would love 2 see the Yorkshire / Lanchshire game brought back..! Don't know were or when we'd fit it in tho..!

Gasnier doing nothing again, get big Jamahl in there Ricky.
Thought Soward's territorial kicking was excellent. Queensland definitely had an off night.
No better place to break the streak than at Suncorp!

Soward had a better second half his first half kicking game was below par as he kept finding a Brisbane player on the full.

Woohoo!

Really good game, thought Gallen was huge and Uate, Lewis Watmough and the halves went well too. Gidley and Ennis interchanging really worked. NSW got in the faces of Queensland that is why they were off their game.

Roll on the decider.
