The biggest reason Qld have had the wood on NSW for a couple of decades is their respective kicking games.
Qld will have the quality kicking game of DCE and Ben Hunt who are outstanding with Harry Grant, Reece Walsh as well as Dearden chiming in with attacking kicks.
NSW have opted for the improving kicking game of Hynes, the bog average Luai and instead of Api from dummy half who id say is the better kicker out of the three they've opted for Reece Robinson.
It does my head in year after year, NSW will pick Cleary and a partnering half who's got an ordinary kicking game. Qld rush out of the line at Cleary all night rendering his own kicking game average which effects the rest of his game and Qld sneak home.
Instead of understanding what the difference is NSW do it again and again.
Muppets in the media keep bringing up Wighton, FMD they just don't learn.
Yeah the ten is poorly refereed in state of origin on the basis of "letting the teams decide the game" without the ref interfering. You are probably right, Qld get this better than us and take advantage every year. If picking based on kicking game we probably needed a left field selection like Townsend though because of injuries. That was never gonna happen.
"Our errors and when we made them was the reason we lost. When you have a ref that loves a set restart (some random for both sides) you are always going to fatigue when you hand over possession so easily."
"This is true . We are also light on a couple of quality forwards but the game has changed. Quality outside backs are worth their weight in gold . Not only can they break a game open they're also asked to solve problems in defence , scramble to save…"
"
I agree, our outside backs are sub par. However, outside backs are only 1 piece of what the Eels need to become a contender. Throughout the 40 plus years I've followed Rugby League I have never thought or heard that a side has won a premiership…"

Madge is a dope.

In origin your kicking game is the difference .

The full team list is out.
Queensland will lap that squad.
What about RCG?
Nevermind they overlooked him for jake treboyobitch
Jake Tobogaverage is not an origin quality player yet has been handed the captaincy.
Hynes is a complete myth.
Luai is a massive grub and has done nothing in Origin.
Suaalii is a sell out.
McInnes is just shit.
Jake getting the captaincy is almost as bad as when they handed it to kurt Gidley 😳
The most overrated player Jake in the history of the game with Anasta and then Gidley a close third.
You cant call Mcness shit lol.
Can and did.
Suaalii on the Wing would have been a risky choice, him at Centre is worse.
