NSW by 12 with MOM T-Turbo

Well it was a bit more than 12 but T-Turbo was the official MOM

According to the BBC website, the next game is already won by QLD as "Game two is in Brisbane on 27 June and the decider in Sydney on 14 July."

think NSW edge the spine and have a far superior backline while the Queensland pack is better.

Well the winner in this one was decisive. The Blues backs were just tremendous . Tommy Turbovic was seemingly playing in every position and none at times , outstanding . Mitchell , To’o , Tedesco just to good , Josh Addo-TheFox was the quietest ! The club combo in the middle is significant to . All pretty much as I predicted until my account was hacked by North Korea

The difference between New South Wales today and last year was startling.  They benefited from the halves combination from Penrith but, more importantly, their edges with Mitchell and Trbojevic were just electric compared to last year when Wighton and Gutherson were kept quiet pretty much all series by Queensland.

Kangaroo team picking itself, meanwhile we got one game v combinational RL.

Tommy T is the best centre in the world and only plays there 2-3 times a year. Crazy.

despite only having one bronco player in the Queensland team it was like watching the broncos.

So, what happened to the directive during Origin 1? Anybody see Feldt take Murray high. In a league game he’d have been binned. 
So consistency or double standards? 
Nobody binned and nobody sent off for the whole of 80 minutes. Unheard of of late.
