| Quote PHIPPS="PHIPPS"My favourite moment in recent Origin history was when Michael De Vere got his head stapled back together... think it was 2003 or 2004...and then played on.
If there was ever a moment that sums Origin up it was that one.'"
Think it was Luke O'Donnell

| It was definitely DeVere. It was indeed 2003, Game I in fact. One of the best games i've ever seen. Lockyer at fullback, Johns at halfback. Carroll getting knocked out on Civo's head. Hodges stretchered off. Ryles crawling along the sideline and collapsing. Bowman still making tackles whilst concussed. Lockyer's brilliant one-on-one try saving tackle on DeVere (pre staples). And a NSW win. Can't get any better.

500 below a ground record, I'd be calling that a full house
Amazing game by Paul Gallen!

| Quote CGD="CGD"Yeah, where was your re-quote on that on, Spud? Gallen did take first hit up, then nearly 30 more, running more than two lengths of the field and making 30 tackles.
Absolutely f*cking killed it. Matt Scott's got an Origin rival.
Big Gal Man of the Match.'"

| Sean McRae on Boots ‘n’ All ‘if there is anything better than State of origin I am yet to see it’. Did he not see New Zealand win the World Cup and the last 4 Nations then? When State of origin was the pinnacle of Rugby League it was right to call it so but now it clearly isn’t and talking it up as that is doing a disservice to the International game

That's why boffins produce them. Amongst other things they are produced for viewer perusal and, dare I suggest - dispersion into the Rugby League arena via the portal of the internet forum. I doubt anyone (apart from tb and Smokey) will sit and personally log the stats themselves.

| NSW's risky ploy of playing a lightweight pack worked very well. They played like they did up front when they were regularly beating Qld - lots of short passing and movement to tire out the big Qld pack. They used to do that and have star players out wide. If they can repeat the second half and Soward gets his kicking going from the off, they are in with a real chance to win the series.
For Qld, Lockyer needs to take the line on more. He's a class player and his passing is superb, but he needs to create more space by threatening the defence himself. Given the next game will be his last I expect him to put his body on the line, so he could look a very different player.
