Finally, some skill with a 40 -20! then they lose it!!    Sides pretty close and neutralising each other.

No penalty after some wrestling and upset!

That’s a great try

[Graham]

Maroons retake the lead!

[Sports Prophet]

Forget Cobbo scoring if he catches it, if Crichton doesn’t pass he is in!

[Sports Prophet]

Even Adelaide adores him. Love it that he’s a Shark!

[JohnM]

Sin bin?  Never!!

[Sports Prophet]

Isn’t it beautiful what can happen when you actually compete for your bomb, rather than aiming to tackle the receiver as soon as he lands on the floor.

Great try to win it!

Unbelievable 

[Futtocks]

Odd, watching Origin without really engaging on here, but I saw the first duplicate thread appear and thought "oh, what's the ###### point?"

A cracker of a performance from the Maroons, given injuries and the late binning. The big Adelaide crowd got a great game.

[DavidM]

They always find a way he says … 12 men , guys out of position , they pull of a great win . Fantastic efforts by The Hammer and Collins to nail the job

Probably the worst 10 or so minutes Nicho will experience in Origin!

[Llangennech]

I'm just starting to get over it. That's the biggest disappointment I've felt during Origin. 

[Anita Bath]

Relax, it will only last for 3 weeks when it will become the second biggest disappointment you have felt
