Thanks. This is a way to raise the discourse and expect a civil response right?




I am really at a loss as to why you are directing your comments at me pertaining to Soward. I have not even mentioned him! I have made reference to Inglis and Jamie Lyon!





I am really rather bemused now. You did compare yourself with Wayne Bennet in a previous post so I will take it you are suffering from some sort of delusional episode.

Your response to my comment vis-a-vis Greg Inglis and Jamie Lyon make little, if any, logical sense.

Did anyone watch that wondering how the hell are we ever going to be able to give the Aussies a game in the future?
a) They have enough players to put out about 4 Australia teams, b) they're playing under two refs and the amount of lying on that they do at the play the ball is still unbelievalble. c) They also didn't seem to have both feet behind the ref when defending. If we're not playing under the same rules, then what chance do we have?

But there will be one ref in the 4 nations and they'll be playing under 'our' rules. Let's just hope that they adhere to the rule book unlike in the world cup.

the aussie selectors picked johnathon thurston as man of the match queensland picked inglis

I think you're becoming obssessed with me jonh, I wasn't even part of this thread!

I thought the Hayne try should have been given.

Not one angle proved either way if he'd defo touched the line and with benefit for the doubt and all that i was suprised it didn't get given.

Strange having a Fijian playing Origin though

I can't believe it but i 100% agree.

And I actually agree with this as well, something is going wrong here.

Campese did very little in attack, I don't see him as a big game player.

My apologies Boris I thought you were pointing towards another post regards Soward, i read it wrong.

Regards Inglis he was carrying too much weight at the start of the year, it was noticed by a good few pundits and raised with him, the quality of his performances did suffer in many eyes down to it. He of late looks much leaner than he did at the start of the year especially up top and i think his performances have improved to coincide with that.

I would put the change in form down to Inglis moving back into the centre position rather than being utilsed as a stand off. Finch's recuirtment to the Storm has alllowed Inglis to move back into the centre where he is best played.

this is a great qld team . on par with the late 80s team . 3 series wins maybe a 4th . a record

Well he is only young. Second the Queensland defence for the first 55 minutes were so quick into the faces of the NSW players, giving little time for the halves to work.

That is true. He has had slow development throughout the start of his career, maybe his path to greatness is a little different than most Aussie stars!
