'30 days of camp and NSW got worse': Voss slams Blues
SEN • July 10th, 2025 10:51 am
NSW having their players in camp for 30-days has been slammed by the likes of Andrew Voss and Gus Gould with both highlighting the Blues got consistently worse through the 2025 Origin series.
The Blues were bereft of any strategy against a dominant Queensland side in the decider at Accor Stadium on Wednesday in which the Maroons claimed a 12-point victory to claim the series.
Just days after losing his father, Cameron Munster bravely led his side out to victory that many believe will go down as one of the greatest performance in Origin folklore.
As NSW begin the post mortem, Voss says a particular focus must be put on just how much time payers spent in camp and whether it was worth the disruption it causes to the NRL season.
"30 days of camp and one of the greatest Origin coaches Gould says NSW got worse the longer it went on," Voss said.
"We give our Test side 3-4 days to prepare. This should be the end of the 10-day camp and this fixes our scheduling issues too.
"Clubs want it shorter. Could you go into camp then go to play for the club at the weekend then go back into camp? Play the Wednesday. Get picked for Origin but play for your club the week before.
"Go into camp during the week. Clubs should be able to use you while in camp.
"Someone has to be accountable for 30 days of camp and NSW got worse on the field.
"We had a set last night with Cleary and Luai on the field and we had Hudson Young kicking the ball. NSW were bereft of ideas late in the game."
