Message: [QUOTE="CaptainHook, post: 2593032, member: 8315"] As others have said, it felt like a weird game. Almost like the sides were playing two different games. I'd like to praise Guerra. Imagine if Kennedy had the heart of Guerra? He ran hard and tackled hard all night. I can't ask for more. I also noticed NSW players passing off the ground and continuing to play after being held - happened at least a dozen times. Wtf ref? Queensland didn't really respect the football. Myles trying to offload after the first tackle from a penalty, being penalised on the fifth tackle a number of times. Makes it hard to win. They really intensified their defense in the second half but not completing sets and poor kicks undid all that good work. Execution needs to be better. I'm not sure where Queensland go. I love Tate, Hodges, Slater, etc but we have no speed in the backline. I'm not just talking about speed in open space but just knowing when there is a sniff of an opportunity. It's a split second but that's all you need in Origin - they look a bit off the pace. Still, Mal deserves the benefit of the doubt. Contrary to a lot of talk in the press, he can and does make changes when they are warranted. It would be a shame though if the streak ends due to injuries. Little facts like that get lost in the record books. [/QUOTE]
