Message: [QUOTE="QUEENSLANDER, post: 2219701, member: 1771"] Just got back from the game. Disappointing, but after the way we rallied behind price at the end, it felt like a win for some reason. Firstly, i think everyone is being way too harsh on slater. Yeah he fucked up a few times, one even leading to a try, but ffs look at those try savers he pulled off on watmough and hayne! Hunt wouldnt have got near them, nor would most fullbacks. Those 2 tackles were brilliant. Also, not many players couldved scored the try he did. The lot of u only see the bad things he does. He made loads of mistakes but so did Lockyer and smith. Inglis proved tonight he is hands down the best player in the game right now. How many line breaks did he make? 4 or 5 i would guess. Williams couldnt get near him, its a shame we didnt have the right support play of we couldve won purely on the back of inglis. He will go down in history as one of the games best ever centres and players. I think lots of ppl are also being harsh on boyd. He hasnt let QLD down. That break he made tonight beating hayne twice, was brilliant and hes safe as a house once the ball is kicked. That said, Tonga was orsm as well. I must admit, i dont like hodges, but after tonight i have regained a massive amount of respect for him. In todays game, we dont see a player show his emotions that much, especially anger, but the way Hodges told NSW to come and take him on was spine tingling. The way he stood up for his mates was brilliant. Cant believe Creagh pushed him and ran away. What a pussy. I am the biggest crocker fan, as many of u may know, but his showings in the last 2 games have now easily dislodged him as my favourite player. He used to be known for handling errors and penalties, but now the stupid bastard cant tackle and was responsible for most of watmoughs breaks. Costigan was orsm when he came on, had heaps of mongrel, and should take crockers place from now on. On to parts of the game. I think Williams try was a knock on, and Thurston was only playing what he saw, which was a loose ball. It was a poor play by him, but as im sure many of u would agree, it looked like williams lost it. Not worthy of an 8 point try, especially since it occurred after he 'grounded it'. Bullshit call. There were **** loads of bad calls on us tonight, especially a shephard on thaiday when wing faked to go one way then the other but used the play the ball player as a shield. Also, NSW held us down an eternity. NSW were the better team, but if some of those calls had been made, and the way inglis was playing, anything couldve happened. The turning point really was when tonga dropped it over the line... well i say dropped, but it looked like gidley led with the knees to dislodge the ball, but hey, cant mention that can we.if we score then, we probably win, but it wasnt to be. QLD was orsm when we held the ball, but sadly we barely ever made it to 5th tackle. Smith kicking the ball with a minute left to give QLD one last chance to smash NSW was one of the best things ive seen in origin. The passion the boys showed was orsm, pity it wasnt on show all match. In the end, nsw get the win, but suck shit, we got the trophy, 4 years of winning and nothing can take that away [/QUOTE]
