I dont think it was a poor game. It was quality skill wise. I know what you mean if you are refering to the apparent lack of big hits and aggression. I think the weather had a part to play and teams not too keen on running the ball up and prefering to kick more.



Looked like QLD had adopted Agars 5 up the middle and a kick! Smart in the circumstances though. I think QLD knew it would be a bit closer than normal and played it safe and both teams didnt want to do anything silly. Both sets of forwards were huge meaning big smashes are a lot harder to com by in the forwards though I bet they hurt just as much!



I thought Tom Learoyd-Lahrs played well and ran it up a the larger QLD forwards hard while also looking a lot more mobile for the drier conditions.

I am glad you saw that too, I have to say I have seen better Super league this season.. apart from one or two highlights i thought in the main it was very average indeed.

I think the weather helped this situation

Well I stayed off the internet all day yesterday just in case the final score came up some were...

Well Queensland look like to win the 5th straight series in a row because there a team not to be messed with, their hungry, want to win, want play for each other and most of all 1-17 are quality and well coached.

Wasnt the greatest SOO game ive seen but some great individual performances from Thaiday, he ran hard all game, tackled harder and even bagged a try. Civoniceva, for an old codger

made more yards then most superleague props could probably make in 2 games.

As for game 2, Haye needs to play FB, Lyon in the centres and man mountain Indris needs to be in the centres also, but for me in going to be nothing but a QLD win at the Suncorp...

And for the record, Ennis is the big t@t going, he looks like the Huddersfield Giants mascot.

Thaiday and Thurston were the standouts, no doubt about that. As much I don't like Queensland I hope Hannant gets back for game 2!

Ennis is indeed a tw*t but he is a super player.

yeah i hope Ennis gets smashed next game!! i enjoyed watching chris sandow give him a couple a while ago



Thaiday was solid and thurston was like a rash! but Civoniciva was also a beast - i was surprised to see such quality at his age - he has been around for donkeys years



i can't imagine watching a SOO without Civonivciva...

Well in a couple of weeks you'll have to!

why is he injured?

Broken hand

Bad break? You dont know these days with all the treatment you can get, could only be a couple of weeks if its not that bad.

on Friday night footy they said he's out for origin two.

Origin 2 had the lot, tries gallor, punch ups and 1 peed of Greg Inglis..Any one else catch it?
