Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3051987, member: 1899"] Some series definitely mean more than others, but when I see players playing to their absolute limit in-front of a packed out stadium and social media ablaze, it's hard not to get invested. It's a reminder of what the NRL should look like and you don't see a lot like it outside of a couple of regular season games and the finals. I will say I've found myself more invested than I thought I would. Kevie has turned a couple of people off, but I found his approach to be genuinely inspiring. He isn't afraid to get emotional and try absolutely every approach to try and get Queensland over the line. Before the series, I was afraid Kevie was just going to go through the motions and continue to make appearances on NRL 360 where he'd joke around with the boys. I also wasn't a fan of Freddy's selection policies in Game II and I hope he gets his just desserts. After crowing about team work, the way he threw some of his players under the bus was disgusting and he's clearly playing favourites. He's been extremely lucky in regards to injuries and suspensions forcing him to pick a better side and to his credit, got his guys to lift for Game II. I'm already feeling the nerves and excitement now. If Queensland somehow manage to pull this off, it will be one of their greatest victories in Origin history. Hope is dangerous and you leave yourself open to get burned, but without it sport can be so dull. [/QUOTE]
