Thread: State of Origin 2016

What did that stupid big geezer do that for? He just ran over after the try had scored and grab some geezer around the neck; total muppet - 10 minutes in the bin...

Are these Aussie commentators all Queenslanders?

There we go, a proper SOA game; the Blues deserved it too.

Great game and a good win on the park for the best side.

As an Aussie I am proud of this annual fixture and am happy others around the world enjoy the game played by proper sportsmen.

All good not a great game but the right team won.

Now we wait for all the Qld excuses as usual.
They are bad winners and worse losers.
They think the game is all about them.
WANKERS

Johnathan Thurston, Cameron Smith , Kevin Walters in slamming NSW players "disrespectful" and typifying "what their team is about".

I forgot this was on yet again.

Managed to catch the 2nd half though. Not exactly high-quality stuff but pretty dramatic to watch.

Congrats to NSW on the win, have a feeling things might change in the next few years, the Blues have some great young players itching to play Origin.
No sour grapes from this avid QLD supporter, NSW deserved the win.

Funny quote you posted bobo, I often wonder if you are serious at times or just looking for a bite.
QLD can't win, whether they win or not they are portrayed as either bad winners or sore losers.
I find it comical when I think about the way Daley carried on about the refs after game 2 wanting them replaced, and some of the comments Gallen made in the lead up to game 3.
The word hypocritical comes to mind.

The last two games were worthy of the Origin tradition. Well done to both teams- have a feeling that NSW deserved the series win more, but no matter. Payback is hell.

No, not comical, just Australian.

No, it's not Australian, you don't label an entire country on the actions of a few individuals.
Or would you say all Englishmen were the same as Wayne Rooney ? Or the Wigan rugby league coach ?

^Yep

^ it's true.

(although Wayne is slightly better looking and more intelligent than me, we're of the same stock...)

Oh I don't know bobo, you should not be so hard on yourself. As far as being a bad winner and even worse loser goes, judging by the ridiculous comments you have posted so far on this forum you are right up there with the worst of them !

And where I come from people who turn on their own state are ever lower down the inside of the trash can than even the genuine cockroaches.
