    Ticketek obviously hasn't updated their chart. Suncorp Stadium the website has but still. How can those 4 bays equal just under 20,000 seats? Unless I'm missing something here.

    That still doesn't make sense.

    I just assumed by "since" they meant after Game 2. That's a trivial syntactic mistake but one which I made for this reason - How can they possibly know how many QLD fans were at the game in Sydney? And how do they know how many Blues fans will be at Game 3?

    There's a debate about whether we need the dead rubber. Of course we fucking do. End of discussion :p

    Was thinking about this today actually, if be pretty pissed off to lose my highest paid players at my club for 1, possibly 2, games for a dead rubber

    The dead rubber should exist; it's the scheduling that needs to be changed.

    I've always wondered what playing SOO at the end of the season would do to the build up of the game. Makes the most logical sense but would seem strange not to have Origin in the middle of winter on a Wednesday night.

    They have a stand alone week for the Anzac Test and CvC. Why not drop that weekend and play 3 stand alone rep weekends.

    Have NSW CvC, QLD CvC (both games less Origin Players obv.) and Auckland v Rest of NZ; each as a separate game on each weekend the Origin falls. Each Origin/Minor rep player will play 3 more games a season, yet will be spread out as much as a standard round. And their team wont suffer by having to play without them.

    Yup.

    Throw in some games for the minor countries.
    Makes so much for sense.

    So there is a market on the game tonight for there being 3 unanswered tries. Someone pointed out to me that Sportsbet are paying 2.00 for there to be 3 unanswered tries and Centrebet are paying 2.30 for there not to be 3 unanswered tries. Which for those of you playing at home means that hedging means you are guaranteeing at worst your money back.

    Managed to sneak it in before it got lowered.

    Could've guaranteed a win eg.

    $2050 @ $2= $4100
    $1800 @ $2.30= $4140

    That's right. I'd say it happens very rarely. If I had more money it would've been awesome.
