It's very noticeable how much more lenient the officials are for Origin games. Yeah, O'Donnell should have been sent off, but it would have ruined the game.

I Agree, Bit of biff is always good but headbutting is a thug's game and i didn't like that.

My fave was trent, some guy had hold of him tried to swing at him twice with trent visibly says "what you doing?" or words to that effect seeing that he wasn't calming smashed him with an over hand right oh yeh!

fantastic game. Could never happen in this country even if we had all their players, just imagine Alibert or Bentham refereeing there'd have been a penalty every set of six and every player on the pitch would at least get sinbinned if they watched it and had to call individual decisions. In reality what would happen is the game would be played at half speed and the players would be scared of going in too hard in case they got sent off, and they'd all be waiting for the refs call before getting up like in the WCC. One of the best performances I've ever seen from Queensland.
