[@SRLTUESDAYS]

anyone who says Teddy needs to be dropped doesn't get origin. Let's take it back to 2021 when the captain of QLD Daly Cherry Evans gets absolutely fisted by NSW to a worse extant that Teddy did last night. Not one person was saying "drop DCE" after one of the worst Origin series for a captain ever. QLD have stuck true to DCE after that series as a captain and look at him now, he is going to go down a QLD legend. Sure Teddy has had a slump but let's not forgot he's the captain. Sure drop him at the end of this year if we lose the series but dropping your captain after an 8 point loss is a way to get flogged in game 2. If anyone should be copping the criticism for last night it's the golden boy Nathan Cleary, the man who tweets out "keen for origin" and smirks at the camera before kick off but then goes missing for 80 minutes, hell Luai was better then him by a mile!. Everyone's using Teddy as the scapegoat but let's not forget the missed tackles that led to the line breaks (To'o being out of position, Addo Carr missed tackle, no one chasing Lindsay and helping Teddy). It was a poor display from the team, not just Teddy and putting in another Panther is not the option, as the ones from last night were rubbish.

[@adhisinganallur8718]

I agree but thats mostly due to a necessity too, without moving players out of position, QLD really had no one to replace DCE. This tedesco conversation is only happening because they are so many people (turbo, mitchell, edwards) who can replace him. I agree with the lack of criticism at cleary, but fittler has to take responsibility for not getting him out of there with hynes on the bench, who he had no discernable plan for.

[@matonatomic]

I agree in many ways. NSW management/media/supporters view their team like a K-Pop dance group. Always ready to criticize and pull out the knives when they don't perform. Us Qld'ers rarely do that. If our players play badly, we feel for them, we share the pain with them. We don't hang them out to dry. I remember when Hodges had shockers, and even Lockyer in his early days didn't do well at F/Back, we didn't crucify them in front of the horde. Teddy should be picked again, not because he has a free pass etc, but rather because how good a player he is. He will be more hungry to redeem himself in game 2.

NSW don't have better players, and neither does QLD. Cleary and Luai are examples of players working well in a well coached team at club level. Neither has another level to go up to, and very few players do, but Munster is one who does have the extra level. Cleary and Luai benefit so much from the two premier frontrowers who lay the platform which gives them time and space to shine at club level. That time and space is not available in Origin games ( mostly ).

Tommy Turbo was 40% fit, at best. And worst of all of that - He picks the reigning Dally M winner, has him sitting on the bench for 68 minutes, and only gives him a run when there’s an injury.

[@Mahatheyew]

As good a bloke as Fittler is, he isn't much of a coach. That's evident by the fact he debuted players like TBJ and Hudson Young and STARTED them, instead of his best 13. He selected these players because of some vague "NSW aren't going to be bullied" reason. Also his plan for Hynes was to plonk him on the bench for 80 minutes, or until an outside back went down injured. On the flip side, Slater chose and utilised each of his 4 interchange players effectively. As long as Slater is QLD's coach, and Fittler NSW's, they will always be inferior to QLD.

Tedesco having "money in the bank" ... can you cash that in after a loss? No? Well that should tell you all you need to know. Cleary underperformed, Luai won't pass to anyone that isn't a Panther, Turbo shouldn't have even been there, Tedesco is cooked (QLD have him figured out) and Freddy just didn't pick the right players. It's that simple. I put $$$ on QLD as soon as I saw the team lineup and got paid out and I don't really care who wins pride-wise one way or the other. NSW just had a terrible side and the inability of people like Ennis and Buzz to acknowledge a poor team and to pick new players who will get the job done means QLD wins game 2. People might say "Oh, well, they're playing in QLD so QLD will always win" is just a cop out for not owning up to terrible selections. The Penrith Panthers vs Maroons is a failed experiment. Gordy was the only one speaking sense that entire time.

The shock is that NSW should have dominated the last 10 minutes of Game 1 and secured a win. Very unexpected for Tudesco to fall over and to be outplayed in the leap for that last high ball. Too easy to target him as the scapegoat for the overall performance of the NSW team to not win. In past years, I would be expecting the NSW selectors to make decimating team changes. If QLD team wins Game 2, then the QLD supporters' expectations will be for a whitewash.

He certainly did not help the cause, along with fittlers tactics and game management.

those last comments by gordy , nothing could be truer, regardless which side you go for

[@Bruul619]

Cleary isn't an origin player. People need to stop talking him up constantly. He's not as good as people keep telling him he is.

[@petersimpson6110]

NSW was a team of champions on paper who were and will always be beaten by a Champion Team.. and that's QLD.... NSW can not spell, they have not yet figured out that there is no I in team... QLD will always just be better.

Braith Anasta has got a lump in his throat the size of the state of Queensland 😂Cockyness has gone completely and the excuses are coming in thick and fast

[@scwarrior7347]

Luai is gone. He's a Samoan player holding Nico Hynes to a seat on the bench and nowhere near in the picture for an Australian jersey

[@mwilkins1644]

Why is Tedesco Australian captain?

Dylan Edwards 📞👋🏻

[@venom1889]

The media needs to stop writing off QLD before games! How do the Maroons always end up the underdogs when we’re leading in series wins! What’s shocking is these headlines they keep coming up with! QLD ALWAYS TURN UP! NO MATTER WHAT! 💪🏾👊💥

[@bangbangzz1]

I agree, but they're all now writing NSW off for game 2 at Suncorp, saying NSW don't have a chance. You watch, NSW will bounce back in game 2 and take the win

[@venom1889]

@@bangbangzz1 Yeah this didn’t age well! 🤣 WHITE WASH INBOUND!!! UP THE MAROONS!!!! 💪🏾😂🤣

@venom1889 lol, it didn't age well at all, did it 🤣

Teddy, Turbo and Fox need to go.

[@thomasrodwell563]

Fox and Turbo didn't get any ball mate

[@pearl-pf6xz]

@@thomasrodwell563 no excuse for turbo he can roam...he is not fit. Could not stride out in scoring those tries the other week. I wouldn't be hard on the Fox.

[@E_T_H]

Hoops nailed it on the head with Teddy. Teddy was responsible for 4 tries being given. Edwards is the best fullback in the comp at the moment and Latrell is doing well too but the injury scares aren’t ideal. Edwards deserved that jersey for Game 1. If he didn’t impress then it could’ve been given back to Tedesco for Game 2 simple as that.

Gordon watching the footy…go the bull shout-out from Sydney, Australia

[@Calvin-ks9cr]

Luai played better than Cleary...and they still lost...go QLD

[@R_carlos2007]

At this point we might as well pay more attention to the women NSW team. UP THE BLUES!!! 💙💙💙

[@AJWRAJWR]

Nah, the cockroach sheilas lost too. 😆

[@R_carlos2007]

They are more entertaining to watch😂

Title should be "Clearly where was he".

[@hughjanus5668]

Trying to set up plays but couldn't because teddy thought he was a half back

[@xpsylentzer_8039]

Queensland are just much Hungrier for a Win than NSW

[@MERCURYSUNSET]

And they always will.

[@troyjoseph4792]

and this is why we lose, we over rate players just because they been there and done it before etc Teddy's positioning was wrong all game.
