All in all a pretty poor effort from the blues i bet filter is regretting not having papenhausen on the bench.
Players worth mentioning:
Cleary- had a few good kicks early then faded away. Very poor In the second half and not up to origin standard. Not sure what he was thinking with a few of those second half kicks. Third tackle on the line with 1 minute 30 to go and he kicks the ball.
Trebojovic- i thought he had a very poor game. Everytime he had the ball he jogged to the line and fell to the ground. No offload, pass out the back or hitting the line hard.
JAC- seemed to be playing injured he didn't have much of an impact
Whighton - can't believe he was picked three times absolute rubbish in every game
Junior - had a quiet game but had little opportunity
Cook- sometime he should just pass the ball instead of trying to make something happen every run.
Isaiah yeo- probably his first and last origin game. Had no impact at all. He could be forgiven for defending in the centres but his attack was just as bad.
Brad fitter- this year has exposed his weaknesses. Qld on paper had the worst team in years and fitter couldn't capitalise.

That's a fair assessment. The Blues coped a lot better without Teddy compared with how QLD coped without Munster.
I really struggled with the officiating tonight. Unfortunately, controversy sells the game, and this case it's a bitter pill to swallow. Lost count of the amount of times I was left scratching my head.
Have to agree the refereeing seemed to be one sided. I'm not sure why the Harry Grant tackle penalty wasn't a sin bin. Nsw were looking a for a quick play the ball.
There were bad calls both ways, in the first 15 mins of the game queensland were on the attack and a nsw player held on to them after a tackle for way to long. It was a professional foul but because it was the first 15 mins it was only a 6 again call. Munster chipped and chased and was very clearly taken out by Frizell and there was no penalty. Also in the last 5 mins when Walker was knocked out, Cherry-Evans got up to play the ball and Crichton pushed him as he was trying to do so. That would normally be a penalty regardless of whether or not someone was knocked out, but once again there was no penalty to queensland just a play the ball after play was resumed.
Really think there were 40 or so players mentally exhausted and physically busted wanting season 2020 to come to an end so they can get out of the bubble for month or so and regain a life with family and friends.
reasonable game snd series. . They took their chances when. Offered we did nt . Harry grant is some player. wow
Jake trbojevic offered nothing when we were battling coming out of our own half. Jogging the ball to the line and looking to pass left to right doesn't get us out of our own end. Needed to use Brown more for some hard runs off the back fence
Gutherson and brown were just as useless
Once again we lacked thrust through the middle. Haas isn't a front rower IMO. He's an edge player.
We should have started with Saifiti and Paulo, then brought Klemmer and RCG on. We would have had good momentum through the middle all night with that rotation.
Our lack of go forward meant all our playmakers and classy outside backs were kept out of the game.
It always starts in the engine room. Always. And Fittler left out 2 of the best props in the game. This one is on him.
All in all Sutton and the clown in th eBlunder won every trophy for best on field.
HOWEVER I have now discovered NRL refs have 3 sets of rules to unpire from.
1. Storm rules
2. Eels and lesser club's rules
3. Get the Toads th ewin at any cost rules.
Now would someone please explain to me where this BULLSHIT about QueeRZland having "the worst team ever" came from?
I have never heard such sickening crap in my entire life.
EVERY pplayer came from First grade, most played in the finals and a lot played, and won the GF but they are "the worst team ever"
FMD there are some morons around the world.
Don't quote me but I think that statement came from Mr P Gallen.
Blues were never allowed into the game. Some really ordinary calls.
Brenko Lee knocked on - He didn't try to knock it back it just came off his finger tips. Knock on pure and simple.
No way anyone was going to beat JAC to the ball & would of scored.
Penalise NSW for head high - So many more tackles the same but no others pulled up.
It was just littles calls here and there which is how they do it.
