    After i watched the replay a few times he did kick it out of Inglis's hand but when he did it rolled up G,I forearm and went forward. So the score should have stayed 12-10 Queensland.

    Although i feel NSW if QLD went mistake free wouldnt have scored.

    That would technically be a charge down because Inglis made no attempt to catch it, still no knockon, and still try.

    If the ref was fair dinkum & didnt sin bin Jennings theres a fair chance QLD would have only had one try

    Yeah born in Victoria who moved to Queensland then moved back but my father and his family all have lived in Queensland now for 17 years. So ive been following the game for a while now. My Dad's a Cowboys fan me sister a Bronco's fan and i was a Bronco fan until Melbourne got a team.

    So ive always followed Queensland in Origin as i lived around the Logan area for over a year.

    A charge down?? :rofl

    Farrah would have had to play at it for there to be anything of the sort

    no because robbie didnt deliberately kick it and greg played at it. pride will keep you arguing the toss but its no try and you know it.
    this isnt sour grapes im happy to accept being beaten 12-10 but not having games just given away on a whim like that bull**** tonight.

    pretty much, there was a foot there that was just there in the process of the game, if Farrah doesnt play at the ball & Inglis knocks it onto the foot/leg etc & then regathers it, its a knock on

    But come on Wopen Road that wasnt a smart thing too do. Imagine if he had of connected and KO'd some player with that flying haymaker.

    I feel that way too with the rate as they play happened i dont think Farrah played at it intentionally either.

    i can grudgingly accept that decision but i feel it goes right against the culture of origin. the punch did no damage and as ive said thaiday pulls that crap every single series. A penalty would have been sufficient.

    Well i have seen Thaiday do this it happened last year but Thaiday i will say this didnt run 40 meters he was the first to help out if i recall because his Queensland team mate was getting towelled up thats how i remember it.

    Like Gallen said to the refs, Thaiday has been doing that for years

    Its been generally accepted that in origin there is going to be some argy bargy, players accept it, the smart thing to do is let them cool down, warn them & let them get on with it

    Send offs & sin bins destroy the odd NRL game but **** me, a SOO??..theres only three & it could be all over in two, a sin bin like that for a pissy little fight could change the whole series

    But coming from Gallen thats a bit rough considering he was a Grub for how many years.
