Gutted!!
I honestly thought NSW would win but Queensland were better on the night. Going with no props on the bench told at times and was probably the wrong decision.

To reconcile respect with practicality, what is the optimum speed for a hearse?:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_7384.png
Have now watched the full game, intense finish. I have to say though, that whilst Queensland are clearly a quality side, the really do benefit massively from favourable officiating IMO. All of the key decisions seem to go their way (certainly the dodgy ones), and they get away with a hell of a lot too. It was clear from early doors that their tactics were to throw in as many headshots, punches, and general winding up techniques as possible to get at NSW, but they get away with it. I know the officials are generally more relaxed for Origin, but it seems to be for one side more than the other to me.
