Origin lost its appeal a few years ago. With the 6 again and all the stoppages it is no different to a regular season game. Only watch it as it gives me a game to watch.
I still love Origin. It's not the same as it used to be but what is?
Back in 2015 I found myself working up in Townsville the week the 3rd and deciding game was on. I ended up watching in a house full of Queenslanders and it blew me away the amount of pure hatred for the Blues that was filling the room, calling us grubs! We got smashed 52-6. Fair to say I copped a fair amount of shit that night.
I'll never forget that night, love beating QLD even more now.
Take me back to the 80's and early 90's when Origin actually meant something. They've slowly whittled aggression out of the game and the finished product is looking more and more like touch football every year.
Well Rappa, your definately cringe like, I am not sure you would know much about humour.
Anyway feel assured you are not in my head, at least until I see your "beady" little eyes on your Avatar and then BINGO you are there! After that I can't help myself!
"In general I actually don't mind it.
I think I can see Paulo playing as the ball 13 and getting lesser minutes next year.
Plus we have Guymer who I think is better as a 13.
Plus we have Doorey and Hopgood back, yes it is ACLs but they can come…"
"I am only guessing Cappy but both Volkman and now Walker are presenting this path, my question is, is this just the managers doing their job.
It is going to come back to alternative packages, given the way the games going and you had a contract…"
"I agree for the most part - but if we're comparing him to the rest of our squad, I'd say he's been one of our more successful players in attack for the minutes he's played (especially off the bench). That probably speaks more to the lack of…"

I love SOO, especially when we smash those two headed freaks 50-6.
The go is 8 in a row.

Always love and enjoy SOO. I've worked at so many games at Stadium Australia (Formerly ANZ Stadium), and the atmosphere is always something else.
Hopefully blue can smash the cane toads and we can wrap up the series before the 3rd game here on July 14th.
I'm with you there Brissy ✅
Yep, as am I
I didn't watch none of the games last year and past few years barely watched 1 of the games each season

I blame Gallop, Greenturd and Vagina-landys.
