[QUOTE="The Brizz, post: 2430374, member: 1817"] Sin Binning was a straight forward correct decision. The Inglis try was a straight forward correct decision (albeit a stupid rule), Farah spreads his leg wide to play at the ball with his foot no other reason why he would stretch out like that it certainly wasn't a balance issue. Also a clear penalty should have been given for holding a shirt when we were in the clear. The spear although soft in the context of Origin was a spot on decision. The referring was excellent as they basically got most of it right and by the letter of the law got the biggest calls correct. I thought all our props were average at best, I would like McGuire in just to add enthusiasm outside of him I would not change a thing. Although Lillyman's hard defence in the middle was also sorely missing. Our best forwards were Smith, Harrison and Myles they were all fantastic and our backline were all good in a game which didn't produce many clear chances for either side due to strong defence in the middle third of the field. Slater was poor in his judgement but with his record I am happy to excuse him one below par game. As for NSW they need one more prop. It is absurd to lump all your go forward on a lock come prop (who was tremendous again last night) and a young guy like Tamou, Merrin did little to nothing. They need a big guy like Snowden, Galloway or Woods just to lighten the load for Gallen. Creagh and Lewis were very quiet so I would ditch Creagh for one of those guys. The main difference was the polish. Our backline and hooker got the few moments we had right NSW didn't look likely unless it was from the pure pace of one of the speed men or off a dropped kick. I thought Farah was good while NSW's forwards had a roll on and then his influence was minimal. They need Carney or Pearce to take charge neither of them did at all and in fact many of NSW's better attacks came through the boot of Farah not the 6 or 7. All in all a tough game of footy where neither side really was able to camp in the opposition 20 which QLD has done so well on many occasions in the last 6 years and therefore few strong chances came about.
