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!
"Poppa, I know you get frustrated with this lot on the forum. I'm a couple of decades behind you but, I'm approaching 50 and I'm finding myself suffering fools less and less lightly."
"Well said Carlos. I'm so over folks on this forum pissing on Gutho. He was a warrior for us and his moving on was timely.
That's not a criticism of him or us as a club."
"Couldn't agree more. That's changed the entire landscape of the game and some rosters weren't built for a last minute rule change by ’Rubga League’ and his apprentice, ’Yah’.
No surprises we not only won the fixture but were competitive from jump…"
"Highly doubt they sign Fletcher. Between Fletcher and Sanders in SG ball we had Brettle in 2024. He playing halfback with Renzo at 6. Storm signed him the following year and he guided Storm to win JF last year. Pretty sure they rather keep…"

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.
