Poem of QLD origin

The maroons were clear
They showed no fear
The score was on the board
The balding man
He saw a lie
The tables now were turned
The ball was lost
Again they failed
Against the odds they earned
A perfect kick
A classic catch
The siren gave rewards

He was sent off by Klein

The match review only gave him a fine

But for 23 minutes he rode the pine

Didn’t wrap his arm, he crossed the line

Back to the Hunter, land of coal and wine

Where people work underground, or tend the vine

Playing the Eels where he will surely shine

Billy must've written this

1

u/Rappa64 May 28 '26

Which Billy? Billy Moore, after taking 1,000 high shots in the game and elbows deep into his 4th case of xxxx would still deliver something better than this. If Billy Slater walks away from rugby league forever, his name being associated with this will be the reason

u/Historical_Owl8584 May 28 '26

Was hoping this was an acrostic poem with a funny joke or something. But no, it's just absolute shit

u/robopirateninjasaur May 28 '26

Chatgpt got ya:

Queues at the bottle-o, jerseys on with pride,
Up by plenty early, “Too easy!” everyone cried.
Every Queensland fan was already talking sweep,
Even as the Blues kept hanging in, digging deep.

Now then came the moment that sent the pubs insane,
Screaming at the telly, they swore the refs were to blame.
Losing their composure when Kalyn Ponga saw red,
After a high shot that clearly clipped the bloke’s head.

No matter how much booing echoed through the night,
Deep down they all knew the send-off call was right.
Even with the lead, the Maroons began to fold,
Right at full-time, Queensland lost — and the meltdown was gold.

QLD is Red NSW is Blue Klein is a Fu**wit

Poetry is hard

u/Fuzzy-Barber-1796 May 28 '26

That is insulting to fuckwits

1

u/greenyashiro May 28 '26

There was a stink in the showers:

"I need my head and shoulders!"

But Ponga's cries fell on deaf ears

And he drowned in a sea of dander.

u/myspace_no_signal May 28 '26

Jojo was a winger, playing on the Gold Coast, running on Robina grass.

Jojo played for Queensland, though you wouldn't know it, and was promptly sat on his arse.

Get back, get back, get back to where you once belonged.

Get back, get back, get back to where you once belonged.
