State of Origin
I went to the big fight, and a rugby match broke out..
It's game on in the 2011 State of Origin series, with NSW getting an emotional win over Queensland 18-8 and taking it to a decider in Brisbane. Blood will flow..

Some gentlemanly good sportsmanship and fair play!

You do realise that the Maroons threw the game in Sydney just to keep it interesting don't you? 
Hard to see past 6 in a row for Queensland really...

Why is it that when Miley Cyrus gets naked and licks a hammer it's 'art' and 'edgy' but when I do it I'm 'drunk' and 'banned from the hardware store'?

Now Rugby is one Brit sport that isn't as boring as a paint drying contest....
(Except of course for that "group hug" thing they like to do from time to time...Rugby players sure seem to like to do a lot of "male bonding"...)
A primitive forerunner of the modern game of Football, Rugby has a certain quaint charm....
Sort of like being transported back in time to watch a football game from the 1890's.....when teeth weren't considered to be a particularly important part of the human body....

The scoreline was not a fair reflection on the game. Queensland dominated from start to finish apart from a brief spell at the end of each half which was when NSW scored all of their points.
A fitting send-off for Darren Lockyer in his last Origin game although I was hoping he'd sing 'What a Wonderful World' at the end... he's certainly got the voice for it!
Best moment was the pitchside 'interview' of Lockyer by Wally Lewis after the final whistle:
WL: Onya mate!
DL: Thanks mate!

Re: State of Origin
I do like rugby player's physiques, talk about beating yourself into shape.
I'll take a hug from one or several, any day!
