Origin has lost it's appeal since NSW won. It was much more interesting when we just had to win one, now the differences in rules and slow rucks are just boring - NRL finals > these games this year, IMHO.
I think this scoreline is pretty much what we all expected if QLD ever got enough possession in good ball zones, NSW have done a good job of limiting that up until now (game 3). When you go back and look at QLD's yardage sets this game they've been quite poor, which is what NSW have done to them all series but this time QLD got 7 penlaties which has made the part of the game NSW bases their plan around somewhat irrelevant. As with any game we'll see a reduced penalty count in the 2nd half which means I think we'll see a better NSW performance but 20 points is just far, far too many.
