Half time: 12–8!!

Defence dominating, qlds try a bit of a miracle and nsw tries a bit of luck. Wonder if the game opens up in the 2nd half or we continue to see a grind

Need more World Cup ads that aren’t from fucking Sportsbet. If Pauline Hanson and One Nation can get an ad nowhere near the election surely the World Cup can during the tournament.

Apparently Cathy Freeman and Josh Giddey are there!

My brain is so footballfied that i got excited when walsh is coming on late because it would lock him in as a dual national

What is this unc yapping about? “Selection processes”? Buddy only two teams play in Origin, the selection process is the same.

Lol what are the rules in rugby league? Could the Kiwis technically cap him despite his Kangaroos caps?

Changes every year it seems haha

Good performance from qld, to be honest hard to feel any joy from winning a league game during the world cup (maybe us socceroos fans dont get origin)

Also feel the sport has become too high scoring with all the rule changes. I remember the devastation and elation when a team scored a try as most games had neither team crack 20 points

That second half was a complete shower of from NSW. If Qld win Game III then Laurie Daley shouldn't be allowed near the coach's box ever again.

Changes I would make if I was NSW coach based off observations from this series:

- Trell in
- Strange in for Moses. You can’t have both Cleary and Moses, they’re too similar. it’s either Luai/Strange and Cleary/Moses nothing else works
- Robson is garbage, you need Brailey
- Martin in for Lucas. Martin is an unhinged lunatic and will bully Qld.
- Murray starts for Yeo. Drop Yeo completely. Yeo just doesn’t cut it at this level. Never has, never will. It’s always a reputation pick.
- Victor out for literally anyone

Some half time team talk there Daley.

Brailey being out was a huge blow for mine.
