WEBVTT - State of Origin Game 3: "YOU SUFFERED BECAUSE YOUR TEAM PLAYED POORLY!" — Massive argument over controversial Bunker call 0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:04.680 Mister bray Raley tackling. He wasn't tackle, He's got the 0:00:04.760 --> 0:00:08.600 bottom line, ran Sam Young scars on the summer. 0:00:10.960 --> 0:00:15.120 Series The Blues and Condes Sun Cop. 0:00:16.400 --> 0:00:18.720 Three, the host through the ages. 0:00:24.960 --> 0:00:28.000 Welcome to a very very special edition of the Code 0:00:28.080 --> 0:00:28.800 NRL Show. 0:00:28.840 --> 0:00:29.920 It's the Code. 0:00:29.920 --> 0:00:33.199 State of Origin Show. Michael carry onists. It is a 0:00:33.240 --> 0:00:35.920 great night if you're a new South Wales fan. But 0:00:36.000 --> 0:00:38.720 if you're a Queensland. 0:00:38.080 --> 0:00:40.040 Fan, you're sitting in roode chair. 0:00:41.800 --> 0:00:43.120 It could be the humble Pie Show. 0:00:43.440 --> 0:00:44.720 It is the humble Pie Show. 0:00:44.760 --> 0:00:46.040 Ready, how are you feeling, mate? 0:00:46.200 --> 0:00:49.720 Well? We lost simple, we lost a series, the Unlosable series. 0:00:50.600 --> 0:00:51.640 Was the Unlosable series? 0:00:51.720 --> 0:00:52.479 Yeah, it was. 0:00:52.680 --> 0:00:54.320 It was just very disappointing. 0:00:54.360 --> 0:00:58.080 They got completely outplayed and all my fears came true. 0:00:58.240 --> 0:00:59.000 Nathan Cleary. 0:00:59.120 --> 0:01:01.880 But to make a lot of tackles down here is 0:01:01.920 --> 0:01:05.160 Billy just poured out clearing. Right foot step accelerates, it's 0:01:05.200 --> 0:01:05.800 come to dot. 0:01:05.880 --> 0:01:10.320 There He's done there, played out of his skin. Wrote 0:01:10.360 --> 0:01:12.759 a column battle last Friday. He was the one fear 0:01:12.800 --> 0:01:13.400 I had. 0:01:13.640 --> 0:01:18.280 Yo to clearing Now to Martin dependent combination and a 0:01:18.280 --> 0:01:19.440 former panther crime. 0:01:20.000 --> 0:01:23.119 Now it's past the thirty dead. Sometimes again the right 0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:27.080 a RS step two right handed ball double for Clary, 0:01:27.560 --> 0:01:28.959 two tries for the world. 0:01:31.080 --> 0:01:32.959 He won Man in the mass, he won the wall 0:01:33.000 --> 0:01:36.720 inst Medal. So that was my concern. That's what happened. 0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:38.479 And queens And were off the place from the start, 0:01:38.760 --> 0:01:40.880 very disappointing, completely outplayed. 0:01:41.280 --> 0:01:44.839 Sometimes always said here we throughout the series, like I've 0:01:44.840 --> 0:01:47.680 read a New South was off too, I've got probably 0:01:47.760 --> 0:01:48.480 run about ru. 0:01:50.120 --> 0:01:50.280 Run. 0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:53.880 We sit here and we're highly critical of New South 0:01:53.880 --> 0:01:55.800 Wales individual performances. 0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:57.800 Right, well, let's do the same with Queensland. 0:01:57.840 --> 0:01:58.240 Let's stewart. 0:01:58.280 --> 0:02:01.440 They were inept, they were poor, they didn't handle the burden. 0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:04.960 The expectation had been favorites and they've they've bumbled and 0:02:05.000 --> 0:02:09.760 fumbled their way to a series lost. That was mediocre 0:02:09.760 --> 0:02:12.480 from Queensland. And if it was New South Wales, they'd 0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:14.079 all be sitting here smashing them. 0:02:14.160 --> 0:02:15.160 So let's return. 0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:16.280 So the key to these. 0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:19.840 Blues victory to Mixed Point was the fact that the 0:02:19.919 --> 0:02:23.239 Queensland had the Blues on the back foot for the 0:02:23.280 --> 0:02:26.080 first seven minutes of the match. The Blues were forced 0:02:26.120 --> 0:02:28.959 to have a yardage carry after yardage carry out of 0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:32.440 their own end. Queensland failed to put the slipper in early, 0:02:32.880 --> 0:02:34.960 allowing the Blues to get the jump on them and 0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:40.480 ultimately silence silenced that fifty two thousand Sun Corps dated 0:02:40.480 --> 0:02:41.560 even crowd very early in the. 0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:45.440 Mid like Munster Walker Ponger, We're out standing through the 0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:50.040 open two games. That bad nights tonight pretty clear when 0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:52.360 the series on the line. They didn't name up, they 0:02:52.360 --> 0:02:54.720 didn't aim up like Nathan Cleary, they didn't aame up 0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:57.440 like Mitchell Moses, who you bikes both wanted sacked? 0:02:57.639 --> 0:03:03.480 Right, Let's just find Mitchell Moses was out Did you 0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:04.040 both want him? 0:03:04.040 --> 0:03:06.000 Say you wanted Ethan Strange. Let's be honest, all right, 0:03:06.040 --> 0:03:07.760 Mitchell mos was outstanding. 0:03:08.400 --> 0:03:10.800 Focus on Queens we're talking about We'll. 0:03:10.720 --> 0:03:13.040 Get Callen Monster was outstanding. 0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:15.639 Get to South Wales and Caitlin. 0:03:15.320 --> 0:03:18.160 Had a quiet night as well. Harry Harry tried. I 0:03:18.160 --> 0:03:20.560 thought Harry tried really hard but didn't create like he 0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:21.680 has in the first two games. 0:03:21.840 --> 0:03:25.880 There's no doubt in the key positions Queens are outplayed. 0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:27.840 And why why did they not have the advantage to 0:03:27.880 --> 0:03:32.000 play because pain Hess Mitch Barnett Adam for Noil Blake 0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:34.680 silenced the Marines pack. 0:03:35.080 --> 0:03:36.120 The famous. 0:03:37.800 --> 0:03:42.440 Run breaking success of twenty fourteen Granilla Blake. 0:03:43.640 --> 0:03:46.600 What a pass, what a moment, best to be the 0:03:46.640 --> 0:03:48.280 open he gave them a. 0:03:48.240 --> 0:03:51.040 Repson Playoffs was that's one of the best games we 0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:53.800 have seen paintass play, not just at origin level, at 0:03:53.840 --> 0:03:58.080 any level. He was dominant. Right and again we've been 0:03:58.080 --> 0:04:00.760 critical of Adam Vanilla Blake. In fact, on this show 0:04:00.760 --> 0:04:01.600 we probably called. 0:04:01.400 --> 0:04:06.680 For I wouldn't have had it was amazing. He's first 0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:10.800 was what we've been craving for. We hadn't seen. He 0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:13.320 was outstanding. The credit where credits he was very good 0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:18.080 tonight Billy Sladers now lost two series the side as 0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:18.760 in Brisbane. 0:04:19.000 --> 0:04:19.840 Any pressure on him? 0:04:19.880 --> 0:04:20.279 Ready? 0:04:21.560 --> 0:04:23.920 He won three out of four series he's lost. He's 0:04:23.920 --> 0:04:26.080 lost lost two series out of five. 0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:27.800 But two in Queensland where. 0:04:27.600 --> 0:04:30.680 He's lost two series. Of matter where you win it. 0:04:31.040 --> 0:04:37.760 What matters whether you two of the last three series. 0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:39.159 But he's won three out of five. 0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:42.000 Mate, Okay, that's that's Freddy said that. Don't forget. 0:04:42.040 --> 0:04:45.960 Let's rewind when Freddy was when Freddy was coach, Freddy 0:04:46.160 --> 0:04:49.159 said said something similar went on the Golden Run to start, 0:04:49.400 --> 0:04:51.440 and then kept referring back to his record and. 0:04:52.240 --> 0:04:54.720 Next year it's a different conversation. Right, there's no doubt 0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:56.960 about that. Billy is a coach again next year. He 0:04:57.040 --> 0:05:00.640 loses next year and it turns three out of his 0:05:00.720 --> 0:05:02.640 last four series. It's a different. 0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:08.040 Certainly more weight to mix argument. You don't lose on 0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:13.040 your home saw Mate, not at Uncle, not at Lange Part. Statistically, 0:05:13.160 --> 0:05:19.560 statistically Queensland win deciders at Uncle, but they also hasn't 0:05:19.560 --> 0:05:20.360 been able to do it. 0:05:21.720 --> 0:05:24.240 Well, he's lost last two, right, but as I said, 0:05:24.279 --> 0:05:26.839 he's won three out of five series. That's what matters. 0:05:27.040 --> 0:05:29.680 It doesn't matter whether you win the series at Sunk Corporate, 0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:31.760 at the Core Stadium or the m c G or Perth. 0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:36.520 It matters that you win the series. That's what's important. 0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:39.400 And he's won three or five. And yes, if he 0:05:39.480 --> 0:05:43.000 loses next year, Billy will be under a Billy will 0:05:43.000 --> 0:05:45.200 start next year series under immense pressure. 0:05:45.240 --> 0:05:45.839 Why's smiling? 0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:47.799 I just love seeing you under the roads because queens 0:05:47.800 --> 0:05:50.599 they lost the series and we get to be critical. 0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:52.839 It's an unusual field. 0:05:53.800 --> 0:06:01.599 Pathetic fools are the losers, don't get or I was told, well, 0:06:03.960 --> 0:06:04.520 I want. 0:06:04.320 --> 0:06:06.640 To be I want to city to be magnanimous. Right, 0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:09.400 but you flew the first game. The series should have 0:06:09.400 --> 0:06:09.720 been over. 0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:14.159 Like I said, you've got very very lucky. You got 0:06:14.240 --> 0:06:14.800 very lucky. 0:06:14.960 --> 0:06:17.640 But I'm going to be magnanimals because you know what, 0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:21.280 I'm happy for Laurie Daily, because I've been as critical 0:06:21.440 --> 0:06:24.159 of Lori Daly as anyone, right, but I'm really happy 0:06:24.160 --> 0:06:24.800 for Laurie Daily. 0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:26.560 Who saw him after the game to night. He was 0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:27.120 in tears. 0:06:27.360 --> 0:06:30.200 You could see what what what meant to him, and 0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:31.840 we all love last night. He's one of the great 0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:34.960 blokes in the game in regular league. And I've been 0:06:35.000 --> 0:06:38.800 critical of his coach in this year series as well. 0:06:39.640 --> 0:06:42.440 You know what coach that. 0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:46.040 Was theft the bench right, They got the changes right. 0:06:47.279 --> 0:06:50.800 Spot on. But this is why easily you said I 0:06:50.800 --> 0:06:52.480 didn't give the Blues a chance. That's incorrect. 0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:55.520 I did because this was the best balanced side of 0:06:55.560 --> 0:06:56.600 the entire series. 0:06:56.920 --> 0:06:58.160 It actually probably took the. 0:06:58.160 --> 0:07:01.159 Wards of Origin one the Blood of Origin two to 0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:03.640 get to this point in time. Unfortunately, that maybe the 0:07:03.640 --> 0:07:06.599 benefit of being a three game series that he finally 0:07:06.640 --> 0:07:08.840 got there, and maybe they did get the rubber of 0:07:08.839 --> 0:07:09.880 the green in game one. 0:07:09.840 --> 0:07:13.160 Right, maybe, but that but that doesn't matter the results. 0:07:13.240 --> 0:07:16.239 The results and so when they get the Game three 0:07:16.520 --> 0:07:19.480 it's it was the best balanced team that Laurie has 0:07:19.480 --> 0:07:19.880 ever picked. 0:07:19.960 --> 0:07:21.880 Liam Martin was inspired. 0:07:22.120 --> 0:07:29.280 Didn't concur special? Did you come from about thirty? 0:07:30.080 --> 0:07:31.960 We've been critical of New South Wales right, but we 0:07:32.000 --> 0:07:34.680 said on this podcast last week or straight after the 0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:37.000 team was picked that this was the best site and 0:07:37.040 --> 0:07:40.680 the best bat balance side. The game two side was horrendous. 0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:43.240 For this Game three side, it just had the right 0:07:43.280 --> 0:07:47.200 balance to it. So you thought that they could be 0:07:47.200 --> 0:07:48.840 a chance. I thought Queens was gonna we let's not 0:07:48.960 --> 0:07:49.600 rewrite history. 0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:50.360 I thought Queens they. 0:07:50.240 --> 0:07:52.480 Were going to win, right, But that side that New 0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:55.000 South Wales pick was their best site and as Ready 0:07:55.120 --> 0:08:00.040 alluded to initially to start with, they outperform Queensland and 0:08:00.240 --> 0:08:02.640 they were so good in New South Wales, was like, 0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:03.640 so so good. 0:08:03.760 --> 0:08:07.080 Nathan Clear is open in stint. Yeah we've seen him do. 0:08:07.200 --> 0:08:09.520 There was the steel on I know he scored the 0:08:09.520 --> 0:08:13.720 two tris, but the steel on Selwyn Cobo was I 0:08:13.760 --> 0:08:14.240 think it was he. 0:08:14.600 --> 0:08:16.520 It was the moment for him. 0:08:17.200 --> 0:08:19.040 They don't win the game unless he scores two tries 0:08:19.040 --> 0:08:19.680 in the fir and. 0:08:21.160 --> 0:08:23.560 Like he says, the game he found capable with a 0:08:23.600 --> 0:08:26.480 nice big right foot step and then the support played 0:08:26.480 --> 0:08:27.200 through Crichton. 0:08:27.360 --> 0:08:29.040 He sets up the game right and we've seen him 0:08:29.080 --> 0:08:30.520 do it for Penrith. We seen him to do where 0:08:30.520 --> 0:08:33.880 he has these fifteen minute periods where he is untouchable, 0:08:34.440 --> 0:08:36.880 right and again it was like that and then his 0:08:37.000 --> 0:08:39.080 next big moment, you're right there. That was a huge moment, 0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:41.280 the one on one still but then he sort of. 0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:44.120 Goes, I don't know, he's such at the game. 0:08:44.520 --> 0:08:48.360 It's weird, right, like that fifteen minutes he's untouchable, right, 0:08:48.400 --> 0:08:50.320 and he sets up the game and New South Wales 0:08:50.400 --> 0:08:53.280 do not win again without Like game one, he wasn't 0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:54.640 the best player on the field, one man of the 0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:58.080 match because without him they don't win. Right again tonight, 0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:00.520 without Nathan Cleary they don't win this. 0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:02.800 This ends the debate over owning Origin. I heard Gus 0:09:02.880 --> 0:09:06.319 say on Channel nine. This owning Origin it's rubbish. It's 0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:10.839 not rubbish, right. The fact is to be regarded as 0:09:10.880 --> 0:09:13.400 one of the all time greats and awardal of the game. 0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:16.000 He needed to own an Origin series, he needed to 0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:18.520 win a decider. He's now done it. The debate's over 0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:21.959 for me. There's two mortals in our game, that or 0:09:22.000 --> 0:09:24.880 two Peblies should become a mortals. Camus Smiths won and 0:09:24.920 --> 0:09:27.160 that will happen soon enough, and the next play will 0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:30.600 be when he retires Nathan, because he's now you know, 0:09:30.640 --> 0:09:33.200 he's won premierships, he won the Wallly Lewis Medal tonight, 0:09:33.880 --> 0:09:37.560 and he and he owned origin. As I said, gust 0:09:37.559 --> 0:09:40.920 thinks it's rubbish in this area. Gusta know what he's 0:09:40.920 --> 0:09:44.840 talking about, right, because owning origin is a thing, and 0:09:44.880 --> 0:09:45.760 he's now owned it. 0:09:46.040 --> 0:09:48.240 I think knows a little bit about well, not on 0:09:48.240 --> 0:09:50.200 this front, so. 0:09:52.120 --> 0:09:52.880 Doesn't know what he is. 0:09:53.240 --> 0:09:57.400 I've written the exact same thing tomorrow's telegramy that the 0:09:57.440 --> 0:09:59.240 Immortal debate is now dead. 0:09:59.360 --> 0:10:04.000 Hail the new King, Nathan Cleary. Do you agree? 0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:04.600 Yeah? 0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:10.000 I agree, He's just it's just so we're talking about 0:10:09.440 --> 0:10:13.040 the peers that he plays. No, I haven't seen anyone 0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:17.080 play better peeriods than nathink when I'm talking fifteen minute blocks, right, 0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:20.440 we've seen camp Smith. There's two mortals in my lifetime, 0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:23.160 John's camp Smith. They're the only two that I would 0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:26.240 John's obviously an a mortal, and camp Smith I would 0:10:26.720 --> 0:10:29.560 have in there. But they dominate for eighty minutes. Nathan 0:10:29.640 --> 0:10:31.320 just picks his moments and when he goes in for 0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:32.760 the kill, they have none better. 0:10:33.320 --> 0:10:36.560 On the flip side, Sam Walker incredible in game one, 0:10:36.559 --> 0:10:40.440 incredible in Game two. Had a very very rough night tonight. 0:10:40.480 --> 0:10:42.400 Well, they got at it tonight. I think Liam mark 0:10:42.440 --> 0:10:43.920 cap on the other side of the field. 0:10:44.000 --> 0:10:47.400 The right hand side to put on his earlier so 0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:47.960 they got. 0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:50.760 After him and physically he spent some time on the 0:10:50.760 --> 0:10:53.319 sideline right, so he got beaten up a bit physically, 0:10:54.000 --> 0:10:55.360 and he never really got into the game. And I 0:10:55.360 --> 0:10:57.280 would say them, no, you know, but I don't think 0:10:57.320 --> 0:11:01.600 we should sell short Sammi Walker series. I think he 0:11:01.640 --> 0:11:04.360 had an outstanding series with Queens, and he just didn't 0:11:04.360 --> 0:11:08.280 have his best tonight. And that's unfortunate for people remember 0:11:08.320 --> 0:11:09.680 his last game, right, But I think he had a 0:11:09.679 --> 0:11:10.640 great series, Sam Walker. 0:11:10.720 --> 0:11:14.000 So people were talking leading into this game like, obviously 0:11:14.120 --> 0:11:16.679 Origin is a long way away from next year. Who 0:11:16.679 --> 0:11:19.199 knows what can happen, But Tom did and I think 0:11:19.200 --> 0:11:21.120 walks Up Start Walk Walk Up Star. 0:11:21.280 --> 0:11:24.000 Yeah, I mean I think if well, I was going 0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:25.400 to say, I would have had him going through. 0:11:25.240 --> 0:11:26.400 But I wouldn't have the way se him. 0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:31.880 Could you could, but next year Tommy walks into the 0:11:31.880 --> 0:11:33.600 team because he's the best half back. 0:11:34.160 --> 0:11:38.200 But at least you know now with Sam. 0:11:37.280 --> 0:11:38.960 If he's needed, he'll play Origin again. 0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:40.960 He's good Origin. Yeah, of course he got a month 0:11:41.000 --> 0:11:41.560 still retire. 0:11:42.920 --> 0:11:47.280 I spoke earlier about the Queensland Pack getting absolutely monstered 0:11:47.280 --> 0:11:50.319 by the Blues back. Would Pat Carrigan have made a difference? 0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:53.880 Did Billy make a blunder not playing Pat Carrigan? Uh? 0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:57.040 Well, I can't remember how the interchanges played out, but 0:11:57.880 --> 0:11:59.480 it was their first one. You would imagine I Patty 0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:03.000 Carrigan's I mean Patty hadn't played any footy into the game, right, 0:12:03.040 --> 0:12:03.920 that's the but. 0:12:03.840 --> 0:12:06.280 He was chosen by Billy. Billy and said he was 0:12:06.320 --> 0:12:06.800 ready to gain. 0:12:06.840 --> 0:12:09.040 That's the risk he had taken with Pat. But in 0:12:09.120 --> 0:12:10.959 my eyes, Pat's been a player than trently Era. 0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:11.440 I agree. 0:12:11.480 --> 0:12:12.640 So if you're going to bring one of them one, 0:12:12.640 --> 0:12:16.360 you'd probably bring on Patty. Right, There was obviously reason why. 0:12:16.679 --> 0:12:18.840 The only saving grace is that he hasn't played football. 0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:22.640 If he'd played, if he'd even had one game, yeah, 0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:24.560 I'd be calling it a blunder. But the fact that 0:12:24.600 --> 0:12:27.000 he hadn't played footy. They had to get Reese Welsh 0:12:27.040 --> 0:12:30.280 onto the field to try and obviously Sam Walker came off, 0:12:30.280 --> 0:12:32.240 but I think Reecee was probably used anyway to try 0:12:32.280 --> 0:12:35.240 and spark life into it. It's it's tough because you 0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:37.760 couldn't have used him as your first interchange, because if 0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:41.280 something had happened and you needed Pat to play sixty 0:12:41.320 --> 0:12:43.800 minutes off the back of having not played for a while, 0:12:44.160 --> 0:12:44.960 that would have been tough. 0:12:45.040 --> 0:12:47.960 Extraordinary how quickly it changes. We go into the game 0:12:48.040 --> 0:12:51.680 thinking that this could decide the origin futures of Blues players. 0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:55.880 Now eighty minutes later we see here thinking it has 0:12:55.920 --> 0:13:01.079 only solidified the future of so many Blues players. Jack 0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:05.760 Boss got on taboo, held his gloves up and and 0:13:05.760 --> 0:13:08.240 and biggest concern was him coming out of yardage. 0:13:08.360 --> 0:13:11.040 Throws it back a couple of bounces, walk at a grab. 0:13:11.360 --> 0:13:13.720 You'll pick out why he's trying to get it in 0:13:13.840 --> 0:13:16.360 behind the new South Wales defense. Boss stocks back there. 0:13:16.360 --> 0:13:17.480 He's gonna have a job to get back. 0:13:17.480 --> 0:13:19.040 He does. He does. 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:24.760 That's a huge play, Jack Bosstop, that's an origin play. 0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:26.959 He did his best at a time when he was 0:13:27.000 --> 0:13:29.840 on the back floor. Great on the under the high ball. 0:13:30.720 --> 0:13:33.120 He'll get another crack for sure, Bradman best. 0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:36.800 All the changes, changes that they made are a winner, 0:13:37.400 --> 0:13:39.080 even the non changes because. 0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:43.560 Credit where credits kicking game. 0:13:43.679 --> 0:13:46.800 I thought the opening half hour just pin Queen's end 0:13:46.800 --> 0:13:49.120 back right, even when you said was struggling out of 0:13:49.120 --> 0:13:52.040 their own end, Mits just bombed bombed it long and 0:13:52.360 --> 0:13:55.400 the momentum change and Mitch showed tonight. He's an elite 0:13:55.400 --> 0:13:59.000 man like Nathan's obviously a great player and those we've 0:13:59.040 --> 0:14:01.120 seen that those two guys can play together and play 0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:03.199 well together because Mitch is an elite football. 0:14:03.360 --> 0:14:05.600 No one's doubted that Mitches is an elite player. 0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:08.599 It's just his form has been horrendously bad and was 0:14:08.640 --> 0:14:09.920 bad when he went back to Paramount. 0:14:09.960 --> 0:14:11.360 That was the concern because we all picked. 0:14:11.480 --> 0:14:13.480 I was happy for him to play Game two right, 0:14:13.559 --> 0:14:15.080 but off the back of that performance and the way 0:14:15.080 --> 0:14:17.280 he backed up for Paramatta, that was the concern. But 0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:19.600 he had a great game, had a great game. Stephen 0:14:19.600 --> 0:14:24.880 Crichton's return was awesome. You know, Liam Martin, what a selection, 0:14:25.320 --> 0:14:25.920 what a selection. 0:14:26.840 --> 0:14:31.320 We all called for that, but he's still still understand 0:14:31.360 --> 0:14:31.600 that was. 0:14:33.600 --> 0:14:36.440 What about I'm only not getting on what would you 0:14:36.480 --> 0:14:38.480 bring the constance, but. 0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:43.520 Liam Martin was like, that was that is the typle 0:14:44.200 --> 0:14:52.680 Liam Martin performance. He just got under everyone's skin, got instincts, face. 0:14:52.520 --> 0:14:53.800 Perfect, more of it. 0:14:54.000 --> 0:14:56.680 I can't knock the bench director. Obviously in an ideal 0:14:56.720 --> 0:14:58.800 world he would have gone on, right, but you know 0:14:59.160 --> 0:15:01.960 Cam Murray first, I can't argue with Adam finol Blake's 0:15:01.960 --> 0:15:05.160 opening stint best he's played in Origin but like easily better, 0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:05.880 better than. 0:15:05.840 --> 0:15:07.080 The best game he's played this year. 0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:11.520 Correct, correct, And then Coler had to come on just 0:15:11.560 --> 0:15:14.320 before halftime because of AHI. So if color doesn't come on, 0:15:14.360 --> 0:15:16.800 I think it gets used. And then I think they 0:15:16.840 --> 0:15:19.800 needed to use Brayley, having heard not used a second hooker. 0:15:20.080 --> 0:15:24.840 So yeah, I'll look on to in this instance. In 0:15:24.880 --> 0:15:27.320 this instance, unlucky not to get. 0:15:27.120 --> 0:15:29.320 On after bubbling the way for the first two games 0:15:29.480 --> 0:15:32.320 male game three when it matter there, it's that easy. 0:15:32.400 --> 0:15:35.720 Who knew Laurie daily. We still firmly believe this is 0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:36.080 it far. 0:15:36.240 --> 0:15:38.080 I want Laurie to ride off into the sunset. 0:15:38.080 --> 0:15:40.760 It's a perfect way to end. Told you so I 0:15:40.800 --> 0:15:44.400 can coach. Look what I've done. Unlucky Brent, unlucky Michael Dave. 0:15:44.440 --> 0:15:48.400 You'll still with us, but the rest of us, you know, like, go, 0:15:49.160 --> 0:15:51.360 you've done it, you've come back, you've won a series. 0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:54.160 You're won in Queensland. Thank you for your service, Laurie, 0:15:54.320 --> 0:15:55.600 well done. You've proved this all wrong. 0:15:55.760 --> 0:15:58.240 Yea, As I said, I mean, I hate it when 0:15:58.280 --> 0:16:01.040 Queensland loses, but I'm happy for That's the one thing 0:16:01.080 --> 0:16:04.800 I'm happy about because, as I said, we he got 0:16:04.880 --> 0:16:07.360 ridiculed and something not not by the media. I don't 0:16:07.360 --> 0:16:10.840 think you're ridiculed by the public, right, ridiculed by the public, criticized, 0:16:10.960 --> 0:16:14.320 and he got scrutinized by the media for his coaching 0:16:14.520 --> 0:16:17.160 and some of the decisions he's made. And that's how 0:16:17.280 --> 0:16:20.240 that's our job, right, that's what we do. And you know, 0:16:20.360 --> 0:16:23.840 I think the scrutiny was spot on most of the time, right, 0:16:24.320 --> 0:16:26.360 but he got it right when it mattered in the end, 0:16:26.400 --> 0:16:28.120 and he deserves immense credit for that. 0:16:28.600 --> 0:16:31.440 And you know, I'm happy for the guy because you could. 0:16:31.200 --> 0:16:34.440 See he has looked to me throughout the series inside guy, 0:16:35.080 --> 0:16:37.560 under immense strain, personal strain. 0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:40.280 So to see him tonight, you know, I'm happy for 0:16:40.280 --> 0:16:40.560 the guy. 0:16:40.680 --> 0:16:44.000 Probably the most controversial moment of the game was the 0:16:44.040 --> 0:16:46.280 opportunity for Queensland was a crossfield kick. 0:16:51.040 --> 0:16:51.520 What a kick? 0:16:51.600 --> 0:16:55.920 It is lost at high over Jojo fafeed his head. 0:16:55.560 --> 0:16:58.400 He challenges the ball, so too to Jack Boss got 0:16:58.480 --> 0:17:02.120 the ball bounces free, Bradman best ninety meters, scores a try. 0:17:02.360 --> 0:17:06.399 They go to the bunker and it's deemed not a 0:17:06.480 --> 0:17:09.760 knock on from Boss Stock. I admit I thought it 0:17:09.800 --> 0:17:11.680 was a knock I thought there was a touch there 0:17:11.680 --> 0:17:12.280 from Boss Stock. 0:17:12.359 --> 0:17:14.000 Yeah, that's my first instinct to Dave. 0:17:14.040 --> 0:17:16.400 It's hard to tell because we didn't get a clear 0:17:16.440 --> 0:17:21.280 cut look at the replay, but my initial reaction live 0:17:21.520 --> 0:17:24.439 was that it was a knock on, yeah, and that 0:17:24.520 --> 0:17:26.240 New South Wales potentially got away with one that I 0:17:26.240 --> 0:17:28.040 think Ready's got a harder dance on. 0:17:28.160 --> 0:17:28.399 That was. 0:17:28.680 --> 0:17:30.760 It was eighteen eight at that point, the game was 0:17:30.800 --> 0:17:33.120 still in the balance, right. It was a huge decision 0:17:33.600 --> 0:17:37.720 that changes that impacts significantly significantly on the game. Right, 0:17:37.920 --> 0:17:39.560 And for me, it looked like a knock on. Now, 0:17:40.119 --> 0:17:41.960 I'd like to watch you three well, I watched it 0:17:42.000 --> 0:17:44.320 three or four times time. It looked like a knock on, right. 0:17:44.359 --> 0:17:47.960 But in the call, Brad Fitler on. 0:17:48.680 --> 0:17:51.040 Got no luck in this this series. 0:17:50.480 --> 0:17:52.440 Here we go. All we had to do was give 0:17:52.520 --> 0:17:56.760 him an avenue to latch onto Robbed. 0:17:57.320 --> 0:17:59.480 I didn't say Robbed said they had no luck in 0:17:59.520 --> 0:17:59.920 this series. 0:18:00.200 --> 0:18:02.760 Brad Fidler in the Channeline commentary said that they used 0:18:02.800 --> 0:18:06.520 the an angle that we didn't see at home viewers, 0:18:07.200 --> 0:18:11.520 a corner post camera in line with the try line 0:18:11.560 --> 0:18:14.399 and therefore where the contest for the footy were. 0:18:14.480 --> 0:18:16.000 I need to see it. I need to see it 0:18:16.040 --> 0:18:18.480 because from what we saw it looked. 0:18:18.240 --> 0:18:20.320 Like why didn't we see that angle? If they were 0:18:20.400 --> 0:18:23.240 using it, we should be sure the punters should see 0:18:23.240 --> 0:18:25.960 that angle. Queens and fans should be given the given 0:18:27.080 --> 0:18:27.880 You know they should. 0:18:27.640 --> 0:18:32.080 Be because they were the ones suffered. They were the 0:18:32.119 --> 0:18:33.600
