i think merritt will fail! but he finally gets his chance to prove what he can do. i hope he proves me wrong for NSW sake but i think inglis is going to destroy him like he did to turner years ago.

Huge concerns, particularly after the QLD forwards were soft as butter in the first half of game 1.

ONE specialist prop. WTF is going on!?

Billy's report thrown out - deemed as accidental. Now just waiting for the wailing from the Sydney press!

How ridiculous!!
They held him down too long to slow the play of the ball. He tries to break free and makes contact. They're rewarded with a penalty and he's placed on report. WTF

NSW have some of the biggest grubs in the game eg Gallen, Bird and Watmough. But they are also the biggest sooks when Tate pushed Gallen off the tackle (before the fight) Gallen is lying on the ground whinging that "he pushed me sir". Big f...n deal you smashed Myles on the chin in game 1. Suck it up princess. All Gallen and Farah and a few others did all night was sook. Farah even complained about the last penalty against Fifita ...please.

billy should have gotten a week. you dont have to be looking at someone in that situation to know where they are. very lucky to escape. TBH i thought it was a 1 week offense straight away and hampton to play FB again and billy to rest, which might happen anyway

Most NSW fans are blaming that elbow as the catalyst for the fight. No surprise that they are overlooking the shot to the head Pearce gave him just before that. Whatever.

People were lashing out with forearms, kicks, etc when trying to get up off the ground all game.

Put a massive smile on my face to see Billy split Pearce open. Thoroughly deserving :)

We won't be resting Slater with Smith now out of the Tigers game.
