State of Origin - Game 1

[beige]

As a Blues supporter that was fun watching it a pub in Mooloolaba... surprising number of us actually. Embarassingly it was a Blues supporter that was the first to get a kicked out - an annoying Morons supporter fell off her seat and he picked up a table and was just about to slam it on her before someone saved the day! :|

No that wasn't me but I was in a dark mood afterwards...

we need Thurston at the force - what a kicker!!!

And Cooper Cronk is one that rugby union let slip through its fingers - according to Inside Sport the only reason he's playing league is because rugby had hit a dead-end for him.

What an absolute stitch up.

Worst video ref decision I've ever seen

Definitely - Cam Shepherd-esque style!

Good decision. Can't kick a ball off someone's hands..penalty try for sure. Anyhow, it's very simply either an 8 or 2 point win.

The call was based on whether the try would have been scored if his foot wasn't there. As you can't use your feet to defend a Try. The fact his foot was there in-intentionally is irrelevant

It actually is relevant because it's to do with whether the ball was played at (I actually think it was)...

[jono]

Then it'd come back to what KQ said wouldn't it?

that was prior to the Force and Rebels inception.. unlikely that a Aussie Schoolboy inside centre/fly-half would be given a dead end these days in rugby.

It was a try. But I don't think any of youse () have got the ruling correct. IMO Inglis had control of the ball when Farrah stuck his leg out, which rules out a knock on from the traitor in that instance. NOTE: Farrah didn't kick the ball so no infringement BUT he did play at it, whereas Inglis didn't - on the second occasion after Farrah had "legged it" - so no knock-on, fair try.

For what it's worth, I reckon the area where NSW are struggling is between the ears. If only you could bottle confidence - and send some over this way.

On Cooper Cronk; I was hoping the Force would make a play for him as a 10 when he was off contract. Was pissed off when it was announced he'd re-signed with Melbourne with bugger all speculation in the media. He may even be off contract next year but now he's got the starting spot for Origin forget it.
