All I can say is hurry up and get this game over with so we can get back into the serious games. Has there ever been so much concern for the players in an Origin match before? I mean think of it from the players perspective, to be chosen to play in one of these sides would have to be a great confidence boost because it puts you into the category of the best players in the league, it's a real honor. But players that have been injured in the past few weeks simply should not be playing tonite. Think about it these players stand out every week anyway pretty much so it will give some of the other names a chance for a bit of limelight and the injured players a chance to recover.

I understand the symbolic reference to the game tonite being the 150 year anniversary match and I will be watching the game but ultimately I just want it to be over so we can get on with the rest of the season. And if Griffo gets hurt I'll probably cry I think...
