Unbelievable game. Queensland showing the character of what SOO is all about.

Loved it.
There is no doubt that Queenslander call from the 80s still works.

NSW should not have let that go.

Genuinely needed to watch that to kind of put the wind back in my sails with RL, especially with Trinity at the min. It’s disgusting how much talent is on that pitch today.

SoO even got a shout out on the Rugby Union Barbarians game.

One of the commentators was saying they let forward passes go in the Baa Baas game as its a free flowing exhibition.
And although they laughably said the Baa Baas was the best rugby you'll ever see, they then went on to say SoO was a close second and pointed out they let rough stuff go in that game that would normally be penalised.

For a Union commentator that's amazing.
He'll be out of a job soon.

I thoroughly enjoyed it too. Was well worth a 7am start with work so I could juggle my day to allow me to watch.

The scary thing is the commentators were talking about a lack of quality throughout the game.

I'm watching alot more NRL this year and the standard is like chalk and cheese when compared to super league.

Chalk and cheese understated it.
I feel like someone from 1920s time travelling to present day. They are that far ahead.

The thing that sticks out to me is the age of some of the seasoned pro’s in the team. When a lot of players in SL are called youngsters at say 22/24years old. You’ve got Haas who’s 23
Tino is 23
Cobbo/Walsh 20
Tabuai-Fidow 21
Fifita 23
Obscene.

Then there are the players who didn't get a game ie. Ketoni Staggs. The talent pool is frightening.
