Re: State of Origin

Yes. Will probably go down to the forresters after work to watch the game. Should be good!
If only bird was in it would really make it a top notch game. nevertheless i really think (and hope) NSW put up a solid fight.

Even as a roosters supporter im happy reynolds and hodkinson got a go, they're in form. As for qld, surely picking on loyalty and not form will come back to bite them eventually i.e boyd

You would hope so, but i think team chemistry and familiarity is a big thing as has been proven over the years. Just hope a new halves pairing can do the trick, definitely think they will give it a good shake however playing in front of a hostile crowd will be a tough experience.

well from interviews some blues players are saying its the closest they've been to each other in recent years, so hopefully thats true.

yeh the away game can really throw off some of the newbies.

I hope so, i personally feel that Laurie as had a lot to do with that, really understands how to win in origin and hopefully it rubs off on the team

he's been a good coach so far, his strictness especially.

I'm losing faith after 8 straight defeats, but the Blues have come close over the last few years so hopefully we finally regain the shield.

I follow the NFl, but that's pretty much it - I used to be a bigger sports fan back when I was younger.

Yes also big fan of the NFL (RG3 all the way). Due to travelling a lot for work i developed a massive interest in other sports, but have always found myself drawn to the spectacle of origin

We have a good side this year. The team will be fine aslong as Hodkinson doesnt buckle under pressure.
