Talking Footy

You must be pissed you missed it, someone send him the epic replay?

I watched the first half and I thought it was a really good game. There was heaps going on and not this run 5 steps and get tackled again.

And that kick for the second try was awesome. I have always wondered why they don't do that more often ? As an AFL guy when I look at the game I have always thought a pass like that would be an easy way to score a try. I wonder if the kicker had some Aussie rules influence ... think he plays for storm so wouldn't be surprised. It was a bit wonky in the air but it was straight and centimetre perfect. Just like the marking they do now that Inglis slatter and co perfected at training with AFL training techniques ... I think this may be another area of advancement for rl. Hope so...

First half ... if every game was as good as that I'd watch more often. Go storm ... 6 players in the side.....

The Blue lose again . But the biggest loser is the AFL!

lol the biggest event in your sport has been one sided for over 10 years. I love the fans reaction after the match on facebook

Blues fans once again go on about the referees fault, some even said origin now is rigged lol, most aren't interested anymore.

QLD fans however, love it, smash the blues every year, laugh at blues supports for making excuses every year some saying it should be South QLD VS NORTH QLD. Might be more interesting to watch.

And I love the daily telegraph, every year, talking about destiny, this is the start, blues will finally win, QLD days are over. rofl, QLD didn't even have their full strength side.

Why is the best from your sport either islanders or QLDers? NSW can't produce good players?

NSW were shocking last night...

RESERVE GRADE >> TOO MANY ERRORS DEFENSE (NOT IN YOUR FACE STYLE) LAZY IN MANY WAYS

Once again NSW LOSE after looking the better side throughout the series..

NSW never looked like scoring last night..

NSW actually outscored QLD in 2017 Series..

AFTER a very one sided game...

Sydney have been well down all year. That must worry NRL headquarters given its your biggest market and homeland.

Rated well under last year's AFL GF too

I don't think there worried by a few % swing..

ratings differ year after year..

ratings cannot be broken (YEAR AFTER YEAR)

The impressive figures mean the 2017 State of Origin is the most-watched TV program of the year,
beating the Australian Open's mens final by about 40,000 people

What about this.... storm vs nsw? I'd like to see that.

no frederick no

I think it would be great.

nah South QLD vs North QLD in the main event.

NSW can take on tassie or some shit in exhibition leading up to the main event.

Great thinking Fredo. You're an idea's man!!!!!!

I'd back the Storm. Particularly if the Blues played like they did last night - busted reserve graders looking for their mammas!!!!!

Actually it was the 2nd biggest Sydney ratings this year. And its Sydney ratings were better than Game 2 & 3 last year.

As a proportion of Sydney's population it doesnt match up tp other cities and their premiere game
