For someone that has played a few origin games , 4 NRL seasons.....that was was one of the worst things i have seen.....

Absolutely no composure, no patience nothing....

There was 50 secs left......why take a field goal under the most extreme pressure imaginable?

It fails on so many levels, if he misses, the sharks get the ball back and have a chance...

WOW, just horrendous decision making....

That is like in basketaball , scores level, you get the ball back with 20 secs left (shot clock off), and you with 18 secs left, you take a contested 3.......

Yea i was wondering y not try to score a try for couple tackles and then go for the Drop goal.

I just cant understand every team always go for the Drop straight away and everybody knows it, try to score a try first as they wont be expecting that at all.

Golden point is a bad idea, maybe golden try. But i really don't see what's so bad about a draw

Neither Carney or Pierce could win a chook raffle, (mind the pun).
Just look at last night's game, no result.

WATCH THIS AND RETHINK

And this coming from an anti-imperialist, America First, libertarian.



But I know we Americans and Aussies are best friends.  Hell, you were the only country crazy enough to follow us into Vietnam.  And we don't forget that.

I still have that image of the Tet Offensive on the U.S. Embassy in Saigon.  And the lone Aussie solider, pistol in hand, clearing out the street in front of the Embassy,  Good shit mate.

HoH and Hirschfelder

Have you guys ever heard of the Battle of Brisbane?

Basically an Aussie was sticking up for a Yank who being harassed by USMP officer about his day pass turned into a big brouhahah.

One Australian was killed by an accidental shotgun blast, for the next 2 days Americans had their asses kicked, about 10,000 US servicemen ended up in hospital even Aussie women who were with American servicemen were slapped and kicked about.

You box are lucky this didn't happen in Sydney. Rostos's forefathers would have wiped you out.

Aussie

Wow.  Never heard of this till now.  What interesting reading.

I like this part:

"The Americans had the chocolates, the ice-cream, the silk stockings and the dollars. They were able to show the girls a good time, and the Australians became very resentful about the fact that they'd lost control of their own city."
—Sergeant Bill Bentson U.S. Army

Hahaha.

Didn't know that the American white and black troops rioted against each other for 10 days and the white troops attacked or killed any black troops who crossed the Brisbane river.  Jesus.  These kids were itching for a fight for sure.

Yeah some pretty crazy stuff we never learned about until the internets.

You'll see in the related articles the "Battle of Manners street" was another incident in New Zealand cause freedom loving Americans were uppity about Maoris being allowed in dances,which is kind of understandable given the pub fight scene from Once Were Warriors, but still not cool. Maoris just like a choice night out like everyone bro.

Somewhat related, Aussie scientists have pinpointed the bogan gene came about from when American servicemen mated with Brisbane sheila's.

The moar you know aye.
