Message: [QUOTE="Emma, post: 2430344, member: 1772"] My 2 cents worth. QLD: Tate was unbelievable and really stepped up once Billy started having issues with the high ball. Inglis showed good patches but went missing in between. Hannant was mammoth too, needed more minutes. I thought the whole 'Smith and co have the flu' was a bit of a smokescreen, but I'm not convinced it was now. Billy actually looked sick before the game even started and it was clear that Smith and Cronk weren't their usual selves. On the whole, the team was solid at best and has a lot of improvement in it, which I'm confident they can do by game 2. NSW: Jennings clearly doesn't have a brain cell in that thick head of his. Stupid move and really swung the game. Dumb decision to go for the 2 points, I know I breathed a sigh of relief when they did. They got caught with the ball a couple of times on the 5th tackle, they missed a kick for touch....stupid, schoolboy errors that really dragged them down I think. On the whole, they had a lot of moments where they were on top of QLD, but just didn't have the sucker punch to get them across. As badly as QLD played, there weren't really all that many moments where I thought they would lose. The desperation they showed was great, and despite not playing all that well, I feel they really stood up for each other when needed. [/QUOTE]
