NSW won the first Origin 18 - 10. What happened?
Who do you think will win?

As a New South Welshman it goes against every grain in my body to tip QLD - i just won't do it.
As a critic of the game of rugby league - the observer casting an objective eye over this GREAT series - NSW are massive underdogs.
QLD have a team that is MMMIGHTY
- Inglis, Slater, Folau, Thurston, Meninga it's all there.
On paper NSW don't have the firepower to match - but this is where NSW have to put words into action.
All week Bird & Co. have been going on about 'spirit & heart' - well boys, show us what you got!

As a NSWelshman supporting QLD all his life I hope QLD gives it to the Blues.
No time for sympathy or mercy. Just look back at the last time NSW had 3 up on QLD. 3 zip to the canetoads!

As a New South Welshman I find it traitorous and un-Australian to support QLD!! It doesn't matter if I know the Blues will probably lose (though in my heart I hope they don't), I will refuse to go against them.

NSW all the way. QLD just sucks! I don't care who they got playing for them... heck let Sonny Bill Williams play Origin for them so we can bash him too!

NSW were simply brilliant.
I really thought QLD would win because of their superior team, but I forgot one thing - favouritism means nothing in State of Origin.

I lost two matches in the Cockroach vs Cane Toad web game -- but finally scored a try as NSW.

So on the basis of that....

I am a Blues supporter living in QLD. The Blues were beaten by a better team last night, as much as that kills me to admit.
BUT, isn't it surprising that when QLD loose, their supporters love to blame everybody but the team. Yet when NSW loose, if they blame anyone but themselves they are whinging.
Last night's ref was disgraceful, and it just compounded NSW's poor game.
