I would think he's a similar size to Jason Robinson (looks it on tv anyway) and he's one of the best full backs of the last 20 years.

Full backs don't need to be that bulky, just able to kick, catch and preferably with some pace.

Almost as ridiculous as supporting a team from a town and a country you've never been to.

Hard to see Qld get beat (again).

Edit: NSW done bloody well. Was good to see another gutsy effort by both teams.

Brutal game but the better side won....

Qld had enough ball in the second half to win 2 games but weren't good enough to bend their line.

NSW after a long drought. Another tough slog. Both teams can be congratulated for an amazing effort. Couple dodgy decisions here and there, but have to hand it to the Blues this year.
