State of Origin
Thoughts on tonight's game?
NSW are favourites at $1.50. QLD are outsiders at $2.60.
Much like last year - and especially due to the impacted camp that QLD have had - it is hard to see QLD getting up in this one. I hope I am wrong, but it could get ugly...

The QLD forwards were just totally dominated. On top of that, the NSW backs (1-4) were putting their hands up for tough carries all night but the same can't be said for QLD.
NSW will win this series 3-0, and dominant each game I think...

Seems Nathan Cleary has sustained a pretty serious shoulder injury in SOO. Apparently he got scans and it wasn't the best news - surgery required. He is now seeing a specialist to look at options. Some speculation online that he could spend 6 weeks or so resting, then needle up to play the rest of the season and postpone surgery to the off-season. We saw with Slater though, that doesn't always work out.
Barely anything in online media though, for what would be huge news for the competition...
Cameron Smith scratches his @ss at 7am and there is 14 stories before lunch time. It's almost as if the Sydney media are holding their collective breaths, praying to the football gods for some good news.

Brandy the Sook wrote:“no, probably not. Mitchell Moses, a difficult game for him, making his Origin debut in a game where we weren’t as good as what we had been, and I thought both (halves) defended really well. If there were question marks over Mitchell’s game it was whether he could hold up his own defensively, I thought he was fantastic in that department. Even though camp and preparations went well there was always the chance it wouldn’t gel under game conditions... but I wouldn’t change the decision of picking those two.
Brandy - Huge sarcastic smile. Head shake. Sigh.Paul K*nt wrote:Moses and Wighton didn’t click as well as NSW hoped they would have. Why did the coaching staff only find that out during the game? Mitchell Moses had no runs for no metres. We heard all week about how Mitch doesn’t have to do anything, all he has to is kick the ball... well it appears he took that literally.
