If NSW don't win they will never get it done and start lobbying for it to be cancelled.......

Re: State of Origin 2018
Queensland started well having all the decent field position yet NSW rallied and were able to capitalize. Queensland desperately needed their first try, risky pass didn't pay off for NSW, they would of scored if that pass found it's target.

Re: State of Origin 2018
Excellent kick gives Gagai a chance and he takes it to give the Maroons their second try.

That Gagai penalty bite QLD in the bum then NSW go again, 2 tries in quick succession.

Re: State of Origin 2018
Just had another look at the last try & the pass was definitely forward. The NSW player throws it from behind the 10 yard line & the guy that scored the try received it in front of the 10 yard line. I'm surprised Maroons fans haven't blown up about it.

Yes, was not a bad game.
NSW were the better team but QLD missed far too many tackles

Re: State of Origin 2018
I know Im old and often stuck in years gone by, but the amount of reviews (particularly after each try) takes a lot away from the game imho. Post-try supporters can reservedly cheer for a few seconds before the next minute is spent watching the review. Similar to AFL. Years gone by in either code, once a try (or goal) was scored, supporters could break into Pandemonium without any fear of a reversal. Im sure Im in a big minority, but wish both codes could find a way to reduce the incidences of reviews and the time they take to complete.

I agree with you JK, reviewing nearly every try last night was annoying. I know they need to check and make sure but yeah it does take away the instant celebration of either team of scoring.

It was miles offside, the ref should've picked it up. Glad he didn't though.

Absolutely cracking half of rugby, had a bit of everything. I had NSW 18-16, so fingers crossed.
