Madge is a hard taskmaster so it must have got through.

Galvin to Tigers delight was cancer to the dogs attack
-
Madge must have done of one his Tales of Tiger Town speeches at half time.
Galvin was woeful last night.
-
The Dogs have blown up a ladder leading side for Lachie Galvin.
Mahoney and Sexton gone
-
Question is though if with a fit and available team does he start for the rest of the year? If yes, then Gus could have blown up his own side.
-
On available evidence I'm thrilled the Tigers aren't paying Galvin a million a year.

And they also have Latu Fainu who looks very capable of being the Tigers long term half.

Origin 3!
NSW firm favourites, but there will be this gnawing thought at the back of their minds about a quintessential Qld ambush. Underdogs, a guy in debut in the centres who was playing Q-Cup 12 months ago, a guy back from rep retirement, they have all seen this movie before.
Throw in To'o only just getting back to running, Haas not training with the group as late as Monday, Cleary still hampered by the groin injury. That little whisper will be sitting in all their minds "shit, this could go wrong".
I don't expect it to. Klein will swallow the whistle, and the depth in quality will expose itself. If NSW give early ball to their centres this will get ugly fast. That 2nd half of game 2 was one-way traffic once the whistle evened up, just like game 1 was. The NSW outside backs get every set off to a huge start, Cleary's kicking game completes teh field position, and they will just exhaust Qld until their outsides feast.
I reckon about 30-12.

Will be interesting, big Papa should have been called back earlier. Throw in Munster's Dad passing away.. makes for an emotional classic even before the first whistle.
You would expect if NSW are actually fit then they should be strong enough, but this is Origin and I suspect there is a third act somewhere in this script -
Too many mistakes by the Blues.

I’m in one of Melbournes best rugby bars with about 15 screens and 14 of them have the SoO on. Pretty packed with about 50/50 Qld/Blues support. Some willing words between a couple of fans despite NSW playing like crap.
The one other screen I got them to put the Brumbies game on.
