There wasn't much difference between the bottom half of the eight and the teams that just missed out. Out of the 13 games against last years eight 6 are against teams 6, 7 & 8. Â
I don't think the whole strength of schedule stuff matters. Its all based on last years finishing positon and clubs and teams have changed.
I think the strength of the draw comes down to when you play teams and when you have your byes, Â Playign Canberra in Darwin is a much better opponent for us than a Qld side. 2 byes during origin is way better than the 0 we had previously. We play Manly during origin and they might be without key players . Overall it is a much better draw for us than the last couple of years on paper.
"so many on here talking crap. Cleary kicking was good and help win the game, Moses kicks goes strat to fullback or winger and they make 10 or plus metres tothe defense, thats not great kicking and doesn't win you games where Cleary kicked a 40 / 20,…"
"Well they (NSW) base their game plan around Mitchell Moses long kicking game, Strnage is a gun player but when we're in a tight grind and possession not going our way Moses can just kick us to a win with field possession."
"Everyone saying QLD blew NSW off the park in first 20 mins. The scoreboard might suggest so, but not really the case. In fact, it was only the 4-5 pathetic errors between 9-20 minutes that gifted QLD repeated good ball sets. Prior to the first shit…"
