Disgraceful that a hit and giggle legends game gets prime time ................ although i'd expect nothing less in Melbourne.
FFS ................ Origin is the pinnacle of League in the world its better than tests and as a showcase event deserves more respect.
Melbourne fans even not league converts watch Origin.

Happens every year.
Channel 9 Melbourne have this game deliberately scheduled against SOO 2 to ensure they can sabotage the ratings.
Can I ask our friends up north to be very careful in posting spoilers on here tonight, taking into account our coverage doesn't start until 9.30!

I wonder if the script writers have Hayne or Stewart to clinch victory for the Blues at the death and take the series to a decider ............................ is Stewart playing .... NSW or QLD prers will know by now.
I have a feeling that Fortress Telstra will see the Blues prevail ........................... GO THE MAROONS ;D
Changes need to be made to the Blues for SOO3 and the future.
First change ought to be Jarrod Mullen back in for Anasta(who looks like he has a busted hand anyway). If that happens Kimmorley will stay at halback. Brett Stewart played very well and should be retained when Minichiello returns. I'd also drop Jamie Lyon and Jarryd Hayne for game 3. They really miss Gasnier as an attacking inside centre so who to put there is the toughest decision. Matt Cooper and Matt King both should be kept. I prefer Eric Grothe to Hayne if he is fit.
The forwards need a big overhaul. Brett White is not an answer. Bailey and Kite are too predictable. Jason Ryles will come back in but they need two other props. Paul Gallen is tough and ought to be tried at least. Greg Bird ought to be retained as a second rower or lock.
Graeme Murray most likely will be chopped for next year but I think the selectors at least owe him another chance in game 3 by making changes like some of those suggested above. Craig Bellamy is being touted for the job next year. He certainly has the right credentials.

Not a great game to watch. Very hard fought and tight, but all very predicatble, especially from NSW. The Storm Boys, White and Ingliss, were the exceptions and the difference, along with Lockyer.
Tight and hard fought, but no razzle dazzle.
