Disgraceful. I thought the Queensland team only picked non Queenslanders and NSW only pick born and bred Blues?

Instead of this becoming a "But QLD picked Adrian Lam and Greg Inglis", NSWmen admit that picking this bloke wearing the proud blue jersey in front of a true NSWmen is a disgrace.

Got any idea where Willy Mason or Hazem El Masri were born?


they are australians who were born overseas, and grew up playing rugby league in nsw. just as there is no problem with hunt and civonecva playing for qld. people need to stop whinging and realise that we have many people on this country who are australia and were born overseas. its called immigration. mcmanus is a bit different, he moved to nsw from nt for rugby league purposes, but nt doesnt compete in origin. this is going to become more of an issue as we get more players who grow up playing rugby league in victoria and west australia. hopefully we run a wa v vic origin alongside nsw v qld when the time comes. im not sure what to think about mcmanus.

he is not rubbish, that is ridiculous. but he is not origin material yet. monaghan should be one of the wingers.

lol one poor game and his head is being called for.

I suppose it happens when it's a debatable selection.

Does it matter what you all think about who is from where and who should play for NSWs or QLD. The rules are there in black and white, there is no money being passed under the table. You should all move on, unless you get the rules about SOO changed then it will stay how it is.

I think there will be alot of egg on peoples faces regarding McManus.

He's a bolter, and I would have picked Monaghan, but he wont lose NSW a game.

I see that once again players are picked under injury cloud (as slight as it is) and not playing for a few weeks because of injury. Gidley, played tonight not 100% and didn't finish. And Farrar, 2 weeks on the sideline due to injury. Key positions, this may come back to bite the selectors?

actually, he isnt. as i said, he is not origin material by any means, but he is not hopeless. i wouldnt have him in my top 5 nsw wingers, but he is a solid club player who is playing well this year. he most certainly is a dud, it is ridiculous even suggesting that.
