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!
"Now with Ivan Cleary stepping down from coaching in 2028 most likley either the next NSW or Kangaroos coach. Who from the Panthers current squad should Parra be seriously looking at signing from them?
I do think the younger players would want to…"
"The NRL loves a good old "jobs for the boys" scenario. Same reason we have Mal with the Perth Bears. Same reason Kevin Walters has coached anything.
Daley has been amazingly bad as coach, it almost takes talent to lose with some of the teams he's…"
"We've discussed this on the podcast before. Guymer is 21 and has managed to play first grade since the age of 19. Liam Martin didn't even debut until he was 22 and was 24 when he made his Origin debut.
Sweet Jesus, Guymer has played fewer than 30…"

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.
