Brett McKay and Ryan O’Connell are back in the Cheap Seats for their much-anticipated State of Origin Game 2 Special.
Recorded in the aftermath of Queensland’s comprehensive 26-6 victory in Brisbane, the boys give their view on the big plays in the game, the major talking points, and a complete set of player ratings for both teams.
Game 2 Special talking points:
• Superb games from the Queensland big guns;
• A disappointing night for the NSW playmakers;
• The reaction to four men being sin-binned;
• But no love for Ashley Harrison.
Summary of player scores is below, detailed explanation is contained in the podcast, and expected debate welcome in comments below.
