The fact that you know there are twenty six players shows at least some interest Zondrae and remember it's only fun until someone gets hurt then it is hilarious.
Banta isn't that a little chook !!!!!
I also have a PHD and a LOB but I still enjoy a bit of physical contact.
Stay out of this Maureen.

State Of Origin The End
They said we couldn't do it
They all said Queenslands fire is out
But the scoreboard told a different story
And all their talk has come to nowt.
The Blues were never in the game
They never really had a chance.
Queensland hit the ground a running
And they made that scoreboard dance.
Inglis was unstoppable
And Thaiday broke their line at will.
Then Cam Smith iced the winners cake
As he dived in for the kill.
I relish now the look of grief
On Tricky Ricky's beaten face
As his players felt the pain of loosing
And stood there in disgrace.
Good players I will grant you
Who for Australia came of age.
But this is State Of Origin
A completely different stage.
You could see the panic in their eyes
as the doubt they tried to hide,
persistent unrelenting pressure
from this six time winning side.
On this pinnacle of sporting prowess
The Blues our line did breach.
But when they got a sniff of victory
Queensland tore it from their reach.
The Canetoads played like men possessed
And Darren Lockyer reigned supreme.
The best the Roaches had to offer
Were no match for this great team.
So as the dust of battle settles
Queenslands once more the champion state.
We say farewell and thank you Darren Lockyer
You are what makes Queenslanders great.
Queenslander

I have not slept at all just lying here wondering how blokes like Gallen and Innis or for that fact Gidley will handle loosing again. NOT !
My heart goes out to all the New South Wales supporters who like poor demented fools actually thought that this team had a chance of winning.
The old catch cry of Fatty comes to mind. " Can't run, Can't catch, Can't tackle.
Nothing more to say reallly.

Congratulations to your favourite team on their win, Bob.
