Chapter 1: What is the significance of the greatest comeback in Origin history?
Putters and dribbles were brought to you by Four Pines Japanese Lager, obviously. And I just wanted to draw attention to the truck that had Fosball written on it that drove around.
What a nice little surprise. We get out of the Uber on the way to our award-winning night at Landers Pocket, Four Pines Hello Sport Landers Pocket, read a book, and we get out and there's a massive truck there that says, welcome to Fosball. Yeah. It was terrific.
It was.
The eye replaced with a can of Japanese lager. It was a beautiful touch and beautiful vision and beautiful creativity from the people at Four Pines, Tom.
Yeah, it was. And shock horror, we fuzzballed all over Magic Round with a famous win over the Tigers. So shout out to Four Pines. Shout out to Kieran Foran. Shout out to fuzzball. Shout out to us.
And to Manly.
And to Manly. You are listening to the Outlaw Sport Podcast.
We cleared for takeoff. That's high-level clearance for takeoff punters and dribblers. I've just woken up on the couch. Might have dozed off. As we waited to record, no, I didn't sleep in my own filth last night, but I would have been well within my rights to do so had I decided to sleep in my own filth. New South Wales win, New South Wales win, New South Wales have won game one.
They're calling it the greatest win of all time, statistically the greatest comeback of all time. I have just got on the phone to our effigy provider and I've let them know not to cancel the Laurie Daly effigy we were planning on burning, just put it on hold. Don't cancel it. In fact, just finish it. But we're not burning any effigies of Laurie Daly in the streets. Not this day. Not this day.

Chapter 2: How did New South Wales achieve their historic win?
You ruined the series.
You ruined the series, but you've ruined Origin. And you've ruined Origin. You've ruined Origin. Well, you've taken... You've got no sense of the occasion. You've taken part of its soul. You're also the reason they can't throw punches anymore. Gallon hit me in the face. Ref, can we ban punches forever? People don't know that. You guys are such fucking pussies.
People don't know that Nate Miles and the Queensland Cucks, they all ā It was the higher-ups. It was the CEOs. It was the CMOs, the chief CFOs.
It was the head of Queensland Rugby League at the time.
It was the head of Queensland Rugby League, the QRL.
He said, no, we've got to protect our little men.
We've got to worry about their faces, their ref. Fuck, they're such losers, dude.
And listen ā Listen, you're up 20-0 and you lost, so you're the fucking losers, right? Like, you were up 20-0 and you didn't score another point. So whinge all you want, you stupid Queensland fucks. Whinge all you want. You couldn't defend a 20-point lead. Good facts are facts, Tom.
Kalen Ponga saw the real man in Kula steaming at him. He's seen the damage that kid's been doing.

Chapter 3: What were the controversial moments during the match?
He's seen the tape. He knows what that motherfucker's about. And he goes, he is literally too hot to handle. So I'm going to drop the shoulder. Okay. And I'm going to take this motherfucker out. Yeah. And that's what he did. And the price you pay for that in the modern game because of the bet that you made is that you get sent off. Sorry. Your fault. Your fault.
You've done this to yourselves for being huge pussies. And okay, sure.
I don't even want to win that way because we're about it down here. But so be it. It is what it is. I'll take it. Listen, would you prefer to win in a different way? Maybe. But, like, also, I don't care. No, it's about winning. I don't care. The thing about us and New South Wales' greatness is we'll win anyway. Yeah. Correct. We now hold the record of greatest comeback in the history of Origin.
So... And Queensland hold the record for... Why don't you try and sit on that? Queensland have the record for the most points scored to giving up the greatest lead. So, yeah, if you look it up right now, it'll say who's the team that let go of the biggest lead in the history of Origin?
It's going to say Queensland.
It's going to say Queensland. It's going to say last night. And then for people back on Ponga, because I did see the incomparable Cameron Smith, who only during Origin period do I not respect ā came out and he was like, well, the match review committee didn't even suspend him. They fined him.
So they didn't even think it was a send-off, which, again, Cam Smith, you know, one of the goats, but Cameron, Cameron, it's your job to know this, sir. And that is that their match review committee treat Origin and NRL games differently when they're grading and when they're doing their charges. It was a grade two, Cam, which is suspension in NRL. But in origin, it's a fine. So read a book.
He should have been sent off. Sorry, Cam, but on this occasion, you're going to have to read a book. Yeah. Yeah, sure. You can mount a pretty good case for your career. But on this occasion... Yeah, you did all right. You did all right, mate. But on this occasion... On this occasion... We're going to have to direct you to the library, mate. You're dead wrong.
You're going to need to go get a library card. We can. And you're going to need to get in there, fucking work out the Dewey Decimal system. Get in there early. Get in there early and read a fucking book, son. Yeah. Get your Dewey Decimal going, son. Scratch up on your Dewey. Scratch up on your Dewey Decimal.

Chapter 4: How did individual players impact the game?
Get yourself a library card because you're going to be borrowing some books. Because you need to read one, brother. Because you're wrong. You're dead wrong. Mate, you're absolutely ā you got this one wrong, brother. Book time. Oh, dude, what a bad morning to be a Queenslander. Oh, yuck, dude. You let go of the biggest win of all time. You shit down your throats, Massoud Stoss.
Shout out to the great man. And then Cameron Smith, your so-called greatest of all time. Pretty strong case for it. No, no, no, no. Has a shocker. You know what I mean? Like, what can you blokes get right? Yeah. Seemingly very little. Very, very little. Nathan Cleary, cometh the hour, cometh the chin. He stood up when he needed to stand up. He looked good. He laid on our first try.
Edward, a nice little no-look kick to Hudson Young. Have you heard of him? Huddy Young with the big, big tongue.
that had to do with his try celebration where he was basically licking Queensland's assholes 40-20 scores a try there was like fuck all he could do well he set up Hudson Young's try he scored his own try it was his kick that Tedesco scored off but like there was a period there in the game where I was like we were getting our assholes ripped apart which we'll get to
But it was like, this is not a Nathan Cleary problem. This is our forwards, a couple in particular, stink. Were you and I, Tom... I think are the bastion of truth. Right? Yeah. There's not many bastions left. This remains a bastion. We were deplorable for 60 minutes and there's just no getting away from it. We were disgusting. We were abhorrent.
And listen, that's why I haven't cancelled the effigy because I still plan on burning it. Oh, no, there's... There's room for an effigy, Tom. That's the other thing about being a Queenslander is that that was probably the worst Origin performance I've seen from us in fucking 20 years. And we still won. And we still won.
Like, am I fucking taking crazy pills? Like, everyone's carrying on like, oh, Pong, oh, shit, oh, man. Bro, that was the worst we've ever played.
And we still won. And I'm even talking like those really dark years. The dark years. The Kirk Gidley captaining off the bench years.
When Kirk was captaining off the bench. Those teams would have rolled the fuck out of us last night.

Chapter 5: What was the reaction to Queensland's performance?
It was like 16 metres each or something.
16 and 17 respectively.
From two runs each. Two runs. Yeah. So they'd been looking for work. They were on the fucking... They were in the bloody dole queue, mate. Jeez, you wouldn't want to have hitched your bloody wagon to those blokes in the Great Depression. Fucking hell, you'd go hungry. No way, no how. You would go fucking hungry, mate. Like, just no willingness to look for a bit of work. No.
Not like Russell Crowe in Cinderella, man. Well, he had to work. Feed his family more. Well, I bet he went looking for it, Tom. Of course he went looking for it. Of course he did. He even walked into that bloody restaurant and asked rich people for money. Like, he was looking for it, right? Yeah. And then found it. And found it. And found glory along the way.
The point of all this is that I... We need to sack some blokes. I think we need to sack some blokes. I don't mind sacking some blokes. Listen, again, this is even-keeled, state of origin, post-mortem.
Yeah. That's the other thing as well, Tom, as blokes are going, oh, we're fucking good on you for beating us with 12 men. We play with 11.
Yeah, we had two guys that didn't even run the fucking ball, mate. We didn't have 13 men out there. We had 11 men. They didn't complete a set for the first 60 minutes. I know. I mean, we had such a bad night. Yeah. That the King of Kings, Brian Toto, dropped the ball twice. Yeah, in like five minutes. Three times actually. Three times. And still got like 300 metres.
We're talking the King of Kings here. Yeah.
Dropping the ball three times. He still ran for the most with 185. Exactly.

Chapter 6: How do the hosts reflect on the aftermath of the game?
There's still grounds for burning it. If we get to game two and Murray's not starting, Tom. The effigy might get set alight. The effigy will get set alight.
If there isn't changes to the forwards, the effigy gets set alight.
There's just not that many Leafs out there. How's he blowing still? How's that Leaf blower still going?
There's not that many Leafs. I haven't heard that Leaf blower go for six months. Seriously, dude. No, I'm not even tugging the piss. You saw me walking hungover as well, so... I'm just going to come and blast this thing. We've been getting on, though, so... Yeah, we have. No, no, no, there's no more beef. We laid down our swords.
Payne Haas will come back, and then it's probably... I mean, Syfy didn't even get on the field, the poor bastard. I don't understand what... Did he play or not? No. He didn't play. I don't understand fucking rotations and benches anymore. Because... We never have, really.
No, but at least you knew it was easy.
You have these four players, they come on and they go off. And now it's like they've got six and it's like, how are we picking them? Burton's on there. You know what I mean? No, it's such a good point. I don't know what is happening anymore. And no one's explaining it to me as the game's going on. So I just get to the end of the game and go, oh, Sofie didn't even fucking get it. Time was, Tom.
Time was.
And I'm talking good old days here. Yeah. Where a front rower on the bench would come on after about 20 minutes.

Chapter 7: What insights are shared about team dynamics and strategies?
Yeah. Twin brothers.
Point is, we debated that. Anyway, he gets selected, but he's not even... Has he been selected? Did you even intend on using him?
I don't know. I don't get it, dude.
I don't understand it. I don't understand. At what point were you waiting for... Who were you waiting for to get injured to put Syfidi on?
Well, I think maybe what they would have done is move Yo up the front row and then Cam Murray came on and Cam Murray is now a fucking...
Cam Murray starts or you go you go fuck yourself right like that's just but when you're two front rowers at half time at 34 metres combined don't you go I'm gonna I'm gonna make a change here yeah get get a SAF on you know what I mean it's like you're not having a crack mate get off SAF get on
And it sounds like we've been a bit bitchy. We're not. It's just... Mate, we're not being bitchy.
We won excellent. It was 20-0. We're not being bitchy. It was fucking 20-0. We smashed all of our guns. Tom, sometimes it's just nice to be on the couch with you and you just provide clarity, the clarity I needed. It was 20-0. It was 20-0. And I smashed the headphones. Yeah. I smashed four or five guns. I've got a huge blood mist up.
I reckon, you know, the headphones, you can probably, I know it was a moment of passion and I respect it. Well, I sort of regret it as soon as I did it. They're ours. We actually use them. We use those. At one point, it was like the worst item of life. Yeah.

Chapter 8: What humorous anecdotes are included in the conversation?
We were completely and utterly fucked. And then... From the heavens, Thomas... descends a flying James Tedesco, pill and all. Dude. Pill and all. Pill and all. Down will come Teddy, pill and all. And down will come Teddy, pill and all. To score the greatest try of his career, you'd have to think. You'd have to think. When that pill goes up,
Perfectly placed, obviously, by the man himself, Nathan Cleary. You just see that wily little fucker just on one of the great tears for the pill you've ever seen. And listen... And showed more intent than I think I've ever seen. You know... There's also just, it was 20-0, right? It was 20-0. With more to come. With plenty more to come.
Ethan Strange, he cuts Cam Munster in half, forces a bloody knock on. Which we said at the time, because you and I are astute, that's the turning point. That's the turning point right there. For Ashley and Martin, not an ad. He got up and he got into his rib cage. He got up and he got into his rib cage, which I actually did from celebrating last night. I popped a rib again.
Not as bad as before, but I've got serious rib pain. Same rib? I can't remember. I think it might be the other side. Anyway. That's alarming. But, like, we also were robbed multiple tries. Three. Cam Murray's try was a try. Yeah. Ethan Strange's try, I'll allow you to fuck us, but I still thought it was a try. It was a try. And then, I don't know if there was another one.
I think that was it. So. Was there one more, boys? The Hamole.
Ethan Strange. Ethan Strange. Well, yeah. No, no. That was it. It was two. Two that were taken off us. We blew some tries. We blew. Oh, I'm thinking of the. We blew that. The Hamolo one where he dropped it.
There was an obstruction one as well with Hamolo.
That's the Ethan Strange one. Yeah. That's what I'm saying, yeah. The obstruction one, whatever. But then the Teddy. It's a bit of a dark. Ah, the obstruction. Don't care. Like, are you telling me that Cam can't. Fucking fight tooth and nail for the pill. Again, Queensland sensibility. Like, it's just... Game's gone, really. Like, you blokes...
You couldn't handle a bit of shit-talking last year. Now you can't handle a bit of bloody argy-bargy on a rugby league field in Origin. Listen, Queensland whinged so the punches were gone. Queensland whinged so the banter was gone. Queensland whinged so now you get red-carded in Origin. It's your own fault. We didn't want it. We were happy to keep it as it was. And you losers just keep whinging.
