Last night I drove over the gaming house driving through the horror that is pre-game Lang park traffic jam throughout the CBD of Brisbane. It was state of Origin night, and a big game was about to burst through.
To my horror I rang up to tell the boys that I would be a little late and learnt that they were all too piss-weak (or poor, one of the two) that no one had beer for the game…. I cut through three lanes of traffic to tear into a bottolo and buy a carton of cold Gold’s for the night. Having Origin without beer is something is blasphemy!

Queenslander’s have had it pretty hard the past few matches, but I a feeling the underdogs could make it back…

Having only a few Blue’s supporters in the room was fine, as seeing them writhe around in agony as we flogged them for the first half was
priceless.

The second half was truly a battle of titans, and with two or three dodgy judges from the Ref the Blues were a head 20 to 19! Through some amazing foot work we chipped our way to the golden minute, to have the blues ball intercepted for a freaking fantastic finish in Origin history as Bowen runs down the field fisting the air in success and then takes the try bringing it to 24-20.

Bloody amazing game, couldn’t ask for a better finisher! All I can say to the blues is…
