Easy to not buy when your catchment is literally hundreds of times bigger than other clubs. It’s like living in the middle of an orchard and mocking people in the desert for not growing their own apples. But if it makes you feel special, have at it. 👍

Queenslanders just don’t get Origin: A champion Maroons team from anywhere but the Sunshine State

Congratulations on having the largest catchment area. Incredible achievement. 😂

Guess they can’t all be Danny Nutley or David Stagg 😂 😂 😂

Very much like Penrith is a suburb of Dubbo…. or Temora?

Seems like they’ve used them all up on….. some other activity 😛

Everyone makes poor life choices when they are young

True. Greg Inglis chose to be conned into playing for Queensland – where he lived for a total of 8 months of his life. 😂

Jamie Lyon, Timana Tahu couldn’t be persuaded.

Then there was a couple of guys running around who looked a lot like them. I was sure I’d seen Tahu in 12 Origin games and Lyon in 10. Pod people maybe? 😱

Though to be fair, ACT is literally in NSW. 😛

But the only marquee spine player he’ll have left is Moses….?

You reckon? Reg, Gutho, Matterson, Carty all had attitude problems?

Not to be a Debbie Downer, but was anybody else concerned by the number of forward passes let go in that game? Particularly short passes in the attacking zone, and particularly from Katoa. There was one play with (and I swear this is no exaggeration) three short balls that were forward out of the hands.

Good news for those of us who have to suffer through his “commentary”

So you’ve won the series before it’s even started have you? Typical Queenslander arrogance.

Mighty Tigers to crush, annihilate, humiliate and otherwise do all manner of nasty things to the evil purple empire! Bellamy’s head to explode like all those smug folks at the weird end of that Kingsmen movie…. 😁

NRL Tipping Round 10: The Roar's expert tips and predictions - Origin selection period fraught with danger

The Daily Rupert is reporting that a deal has been done to offload Young to Knights. Even at a cost of $250k it might be one of the Chooks better offloads of the season.

Jeez AL, I don’t think you can say the Tigers have been chasing instant success. I reckon we’ve built a really good balance of experience and potential that is only going to get better over the next few years.

NRL Magic Round Talking Points: Forget ninth, Tigers will definitely play finals this year

They should certainly be nowhere near the bottom 4 with that squad.

Don’t go. You’ll get used to it.

Not defeat – you’re still on top of 3 out of 4!
Agree Raiders still being undersold.
I guess Panthers still get benefit of the doubt for last 3 seasons. But I can’t see them winning it from here.

Utoikamanu seems to think that winning is something that just happens as a benefit of being at a particular club, hence his frustration and braindead penalties in possession when it didn’t just happen. Maybe one day he’ll learn that winning is something you actually have to do.
