Gallen has been on the wrong end of 10 series wins for the Queenslanders in the last 11 years.Flames of interstate hatred were stoked for Wednesdays Origin III at ANZ Stadium by Queensland players sledging Blues counterparts following the Maroons series-clinching win in game two in Brisbane.And an arrogant tweet about losers having meetings while winners have parties sent by Maroons prop Josh McGuire provided the Blues with even more motivation.In his final pre-match press conference on Monday, Gallen returned fire, accusing Maroons players and their fans of lacking humility.Ill say one thing about Queenslanders, I think theyre bad winners to be honest with you, Gallen said.When you win 10 of 11 series or whatever it is you probably can afford to be.Thats not so much the pllayers, Im talking about the people up there in general to be honest with you but as I said theyve got the runs on the scoreboard so we cant change it.ddddddddddddGallen, who will retire from representative football after Wednesdays match, has served as public enemy No.1 for Queenslanders for several seasons, but said he took that as a sign of respect.Theres that many times I go to Queensland with the Australian side and everyone says wed love to have you as a Queenslander any day of the week and I find that an insult, Gallen joked.I remember Ive had a couple of drinks with Justin Hodges on Australian tours and hes said the same thing to me. Its like, oh mate leave me alone.I think theres a respectful hatred there, theres no doubt about it, but its finishing on Wednesday. ' ' '
