Bro for real, as a blues fan it’s so frustrating watching the blues teams during the dynasty. So many games we could’ve iced if we didn’t drop the ball like a bunch of spuds

[@davidduffin1580]

Worst era ever for blues teams. Finch? Gasnier?

[@Oskar.s.s]

@@davidduffin1580 I wouldn’t say 2006 was the worst ever era, but it was a series that definitely could’ve gone the blue’s way if they could catch aha. It definitely got worse around 2009-15

[@dreddie1280]

Rabs calling him Johnny Thurston is hilarious, both legends

Doubt he'll be there for long. All that money, easy to bail himself out

Qld playing dirty for that punch

[@drewaftanas7215]

we had such a beautiful game once upon a time

[@peterkehoe1984]

Was at that game up in the nosebleed seats. The place went off when Finch kicked that field goal. Go NSW!

[@jimwatkins3134]

GO QLD 14 origin series wins in the last 18 yrs compared to your Nsw 4 that really says it all lol

[@BOpal-cl6of]

Good call, Cecchin.

[@bennywang812]

7:42 the same conversion took place when Thurston had a broken arm

[@jakeismyfirstname]

Would've never happened if Bederus didn't throw that punch. hahaha

[@Twixzul]

Then Buderus gets thrown by Thaiday with no repercussion. Filthy one sided reffing when it was at its finest

I’m actually surprised that the NRL hasn’t given Brett Finch the “Chris Benoit treatment” after what he did two years ago.

[@Kelz_vee]

Was the ref wearing a qld jumper...

[@7colliemac]

🤣😢😢

[@joshuav.santos5220]

Finch was the last NSW player to kick a field goal. That’s a long time ago.

[@stefandior1615]

How's finchy going now?

[@txddyfarquh3916]

[@jimwatkins3134]

QUEENSLANDER NO 1! DYNASTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BEGINS!

[@mcgregorkurum]

I hope the linesman got promoted to referee 😂

[@woody500z]

God QLD has gotten away with so much, and still continue too. Seems like the kick on the ground has continued until recently.

[@gregdickinson4190]

Up the blues
