Pretty bizarre end too. 86 point aggregate is pretty crazy.

Tommy Radonikas gave it to Hames last night on the Footy Show
Beau Ryan was supportive of Hamms and Thurston was (such a champ) diplomatic in support in a non commital way'. He said Holms certainly put's bums on seats

Freddie is likely new coach imo. They will lose more imo.

I am not afraid to say I am a fan of Fittler/Gould (his mentor for many years)
They were winners of plenty of pressure games. Freddie( Adolf in the early nickname days) has no coaching experience of an NRL team as such. I feel that to coach Origin a coach needs to have already been successful at a premiership or three. So that leaves the question who can lead the Blues to victory ?
The answer is nobody.
But Toovey/Hasler/Cartwright could be in the conversation
Johns has also been mentioned. He has a great football brain but I don't think he want's the heartache of being a Coach.
Wonder who it will be?

I think you're right mate, I just remember seeing the spoon...

The ponies were abysmal. A mate went to the game and walked out with 10 to go. I'm surprised he lasted that long. Either way I don't think it matters this year. Nobody is stopping the Melbourne juggernaut.

Freddy had some early success as Roosters coach didn't he? I actually think the three and out Origin format would suit Fittler as a coach.

Some of the scorelines from this round, crazy.
