C'mon... whatever the "even up" calls towards the end were, cannot compare to giving Qld a 9-0 penalty leg up, which just about killed the game by half time.

Weak as piss and still won 🤷🏻♂️

I discriminate indiscriminately
He put the kick in for the first try and the kick in for the second try… he was not the best I have seen him (missed that tackle on Munster) but was not the biggest issue for NSW…
Cleary and Crichton were both obviously injured… somehow Crichton still scored one of his specials but Cleary was a non-event…

Thanks to a lop sided (and obvious) referee… Qld were offside all night and got pinged for ONE 6 again from it…
Enjoy your “victory” cause you will not have the NRL on your side for game 3…

Ultimately he was the difference, giving away a penalty with the ball that ended up being the two point win.

The biggest issue was Klein in the first half.The first kick almost missed his boot,his handling and passing was poor.
I think they missed Barnett more than anything,Cleary was playing injured,but who else would they pick?

You may not want to know it but deep down you do… QLD could not possibly have had more go their way then tonight and they still struggled to hold on…
They are cooked in Game 3 at Homebush…

I tipped NSW by 20 in our comp mate, I know sweet FA 😞
And I'll probably tip the same for Game 3 on a dry track.

Agree… Klein should have got MOM…
I suspect they thought Cleary could play a “director” role with his injury but you need more than that for Origin…
Mind you, but for the stupid slow witted Stefano, he scores an amazing individual try and NSW win so…

On that performance, Burton can consider himself hard done by
Cleary next time hopefully
Stefano just stood there like the sphynx of Egypt, just had to take a few steps forward, looked druged, needs to be replaced for game 3.
