Can't believe I sat down and watched it

What a debacle

Callum Ward was probably the best of the Aussies and he was harldy on the ground

Why  :banghead

ANd Kingy getting hurt is the reason I am against State of origin and games like this

Agree. We just weren't committed or switched on at all. Constantly out positioned and not running to support one another. I really dont think team selection had a huge impact on the outcome.

the fact that it is played with the round ball is obviously a huge disadvantage, too. Their skills are far superior.

Nothing to write home about from both Tiger boys. Grigg got taken to the cleaners by one of the bigger Irish forwards while Robbie was hardly on the ground  :huh.

The IR series means more to the Irish. Even with the 3rd quarter "farce" with the slight biffo and all and Razor Ray going yellow card crazy and saying to an Irish player "are you deaf?!" :lol, they'll keep it going at least for the next leg in Ireland as they'll get a 70k full house at Croke Park.

Brad Green is an embarrassment. Glad he's not our captain!

Just saw Jake at the basketball and had a quick chat. He poised for a photo with the little fellow too. He's a genuinely nice bloke is Kingy. Seemed to be getting around on his knee without any signs of a hobble. When I asked him about it he was very positive saying the club was being very cautious but he was ready to go. Had a nice little blond hotty at his side too in the coutside box. All positive stuff  :thumbsup
