I know when they was over here the other year they tackled a player in the air and got penalised for it and i think the commentator said there aloud in Australia and must of got muddled up because your not over here . But it could of changed .

Well, not a bad 40 minutes eh? Thought after the try Queensland might get a few more but some good scramble defence from the Blues has kept them out. Dugan has been quality under the high ball, looked solid, he'll probably have a mare of a second half now I've said that. How good is Morris too, around ten minutes he got the ball on the wing and in one movement stepped inside and passed the ball outside to (I think) Jennings, real quality. The Maroons have been the better team, Thurston is getting too much space and really exploiting it, but the Blues are showing signs that they could win this, should be a cracker of a second half.

NSW aint getting the rub of the green at all.

Not forward for me that.

Certainly no more forward than several of the Queensland passes have been.

Yow Yeh in, mistake from Morris, he should have put that into touch, the look from Dugan said it all.

Double post.

What was Morris thinking then. The extra pressure on NSW due to the bad referee mistakes may take there toll later in the game. After the Thurston reef in the first half QSD had a good 4/5 mins of non stop play on NSW line. That type of effort to keep them out will take alot of energy.

You jinxed him haha!

Haha typical, thought there was a forward pass in the build up before the knock on.

haha this is a really great 5mins to watch. amazing pressure.

QSD short kicking is immense. The way there building pressure is relentless.

Darren Lockyer, take a bow.
