Re: 2011 State of Origin III

He is more than entitled to defend himself against personal attacks but what he has done is given a spray of personal attacks against a gammut of people who have in no way wronged him. It's hypocritical to say the least and has reinforced the notion that qlders are a pack of sooks.

Re: Through green eyes: Meninga next in line

The media reports imply Mal is upset with Ricky but don't really say why. Mal has been a master of using the media throughout his reign as coach. Sticky has said a lot of things this series but none were slights against Mal or the QLD team. Seems to me Mal is being a bit hypocritical and a tad preci...

Re: 2011 State of Origin III

Well flicking through the Game I thread, there were plenty of posts complaining about the clangers the refs had in that game, but I didn't see any from a NSW fan attributing the NSW loss to the refs (it is a long thread though). I did however find this post: The refs nearly cost us the match with so...

Re: 2011 State of Origin III

You can say what you like about the judiciary system GE, the implication was that it is deliberately biased against QLD. As for the refereeing, well they made some clangers in Game I as oppossed to the subjective ruck policing QLDers were complaining about in Game II. They/we may have complained abo...

Re: Through green eyes: Meninga next in line

Not really. Though I'm disappointed with him fuelling QLD paranoia, Mal had every right to defend himself against allegations about his coaching. All three of the nominated have their off-field demons, this is about onfield achievements.

Wow, Mal has managed to alienate at least three Raiders greats. Obviously Sticky, reportedly Loz and as part of the match review committee Brad Clyde is considered legal action against him.

Skill level had nothing to do with that result. It all came down to school boy errors. They were endemic and often committed by senior players.

I really don't like how they drag Johns' off field problems into it. Firstly they list depression as an indiscretion which is disgraceful. Secondly Lockyer is not without his public gaffs - the raper joke at a formal function comes to mind, as does his assaulting a bouncer. Mal was also up on assaul...

Mal for mine.

Johns dominated Lockyer in the rep arena.

Just because a person hasn't admitted /been caught taking recreational drugs doesn't mean they haven't /don't. You should be careful of your constant criticism of Johns on this GE, you're only setting yourself up for disappointment.

It all comes down to ball control. QLD did it well, we did not. We made more line breaks and had fewer mistakes but still lost. We certainly have the firepower to match them.
