Game three of the State Of Origin series has officially been run and won! In front of a sellout crowd on The Gold Coast, in a year where the Banana Benders hosted all three matches!
New South Wales lost the match 20-18 in what was a bit of a downer on the end of a great series by the Blues.
Look, I know what you’re here for. You want some player ratings.
Well, I’ve got some for you! See if you agree with them!
New South Wales
1. James Tedesco (c) – 6
Not at his best in this game but still pretty good.
2. Brian To’o – 8
Was outstanding for the Blues. Got through so much work!
3. Latrell Mitchell – 9
Without question the player of the series. He was outstanding once again!
4. Tom Trbojevic – 6
A lot more quiet in this game.
5. Josh Addo-Carr – 6
Thought he was a little off in this game.
6. Jack Wighton – 5
Played better in the second half but that wasn’t difficult.
7. Mitchell Moses – 2
What the fuck was that!
8. Junior Paulo – 5
A very quiet game. Should have done more in attack.
9. Damien Cook – 5
Was very quiet!
10. Dale Finucane – 5
Was slightly underwhelming.
11. Cameron Murray – 6
Was good in defence but didn’t offer a huge amount in attack.
12. Tariq Sims – 8
One of the players of the series.
13. Isaah Yeo – 5
Got through a bit of defence but was otherwise pretty quiet.
14. Api Koroisau – 7
Looked pretty handy when he was brought on in the second half!
15. Angus Crichton – 7
I thought he was great once again! I reckon he will start next season.
16. Payne Hass – 6
Another good performance off the bench although he needs to work on his lateral defence.
17. Liam Martin – 5
Didn’t really do too much to be honest.
