Good game, but it doesn't stop hurting.
I don't know if we'll see it, but least a couple must be made for mine. I'd make 4...
Hayne in for Morris. I've been hardline against BMoz for a long time now and he goes and does that. There's no joy in being right with this one though.
Lewis in for Young. Young was supposedly our utility pick, then started the game? Let our hooker play 80 minutes. Have Lewis on the bench if we must, but he has to be there.
TLL and Tolman in for King and Merrin.
Our props were annihilated. Scott is easily the best prop in the game, we have no one to match him, but we can definitely do better than tonight. It's a wonder we were in that game with next to zero go-forward.
Positives?
Jennings. Go on, my son. Best rep game to date. I said pre-game that was his last chance with me. I saw a lot tonight, he's good with me.
Shows where we're at, but no Hodges and Inglis was a huge positive. That backline is so much more vulnerable now. If it weren't for some braindead errors, we win that game based on their backline vulnerability.
Was happy with Dugan. One boggle, but they really heaped pressure on him with bombs all night and he defused every one. The cleanup he did in goal when we self-imploded on 3 occasions saved 3 tries. And of course his try-assist with the play they persisted with all night and finally paid dividends. He was very good behind such a poor pack.

Matt Scott was clearly MOM.
They often get it wrong.

I'd look at making one tbh, I didn't think King was up to it.

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg |

Great night for rugby league. As Rabbits said "A series that is the envy of every sporting code and administrator in Australia..."

What else would you expect him to say - he makes his living out of commentating on the game. I was sick of the sycophantic "What a great brand" that came out of his and Gould's mouth every 5 minutes - insecure or what?
3m - some way to go before it challenges the likes of Masterchef and Packed to the rafters for viewing numbers? You are going to go some to get you quote 10m viewers especially if Queensland wrap the series up in 3 weeks time.

Why make no changes when there's better players to come in?
It's like QLD saying "we won so dont make any changes" when they've got GI, Hodges, Shillo to come back in.
NSW didn't pick there best side because Gidley and TLL were injured and Lewis had only just come back. So they should come back in because they'd have been there for game 1 if they were fit and they will improve the team. Lewis for Creagh, Gidley for Young and TLL for King.
Soward should have been kicking for most of the game otherwise what is the point in picking him? He didn't touch the ball for the first 20 minutes and then he started going in at DH, that's not his job, Ennis and Young were picked for that. Willie Tonga was injured for most of the game yet Gasnier hardly got the ball and the few times he did he had no space.
Jason King was lucky not to get a knock on called early on when he spilled the ball. He made 4 hit ups all game i read somewhere and he has got to go, he got embarrased badly. There's about 10 props that are better than him and i dont know why Sticky picked him to start with.
Morris shouldn't get another but i bet he does because he's one of the few options on the wing who plays left wing for his club side. I'd rather see Hayne there, he did a great job a couple of years ago on the left wing.
