    <p>Used to watch it with the Mrs but we are both pretty meh about it this year. I think the over-hype in the past has kind of killed the excitement a bit. Every single thing that ever happens is fucking amazing apparently, which kind of takes away from the actual awesome things that do sometimes happen.</p>

    Apparently "people" are "outraged" by Thaidays virgin comments. Admittedly it was a pretty bizarre thing to say but who really cares.

    No coincidence that the match fixing story broke the day after a dour origin game.

    <p>Australian public must be thrilled they can get worked up and outraged again, they had to go days if not a week without some black fluffybunny who plays sport saying something shocking and appalling.</p>

    <p>I sort of enjoyed the game as it reminded me of what great tackling skills these guys have.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Sure the attacking options were poor but the way 13 ultra motivated defenders can bring down people every time is pretty cool. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>The Blues were by far the better team but just couldn't get it done even though their sets were far superior. I guess the Queensland spirit prevailed because the maroons were defending for ages and were exhausted but still for the last half hour they held the blue team out.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Not  pretty game but pretty brutal in defines.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>That Greg Bird is a weird one - vile reputation, not an overly big guy but shit he hits hard head on. He's a niggly bastard but gets through a ton of tackles. I choose to dislike him but if he was in my team I'd consider him a "mischievous rogue" instead of the total fuckstick he appears to be.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Listening to commentators running the game down and hassling the officials as they do is just plain weird</p>

    The thing I didn't like about the game and the way it was officiated is that the refs allowed a hell of a lot of wrestling on the ground. This affected the Blues more last night because just when it looked like they got go forward the Maroons were allowed to wrestle and slow the ball more than the refs have permitted all season. <br><br><br>
