No we need him. Plus im not sure if he would meet the criteria to play.

Didn't they just bring out a new eligibility ruling for Rep games?

As much as I think Koroibete deserves to be picked & think he would do NSW proud. I also don't want Origin to turn into Polynesia (A) v Polynesia (B). Korobeite is a fantastic player & I really want to see him play for Fiji & do his country proud.

FYI - I think that if NZ was to play a combined Tonga, Samoa, Fiji, Cook Islands & PNG is a similar 3-game series to Origin, it would be a huge success?

Plays his guts out probably more than anyone in the game.
You would think Moltzen would get inspired playing along side someone with such vigor and heart but no.

Heart, some have it and some don't.

Uate plays origin,what is the difference,Koro played several seasons of toyota cup.

Uate was selected before they brought in the new laws so he can continue to be selected, same with Tamou.

But a player like Kasaino from the dogs hadn't played for Qld so he had no choice but to play for the Kiwis

People get star struck by damaging runners/awesome attacking players and forget their defense

Exactly !!! Koroibete is so exciting to watch and he is one of my favs but even if he were eligible he is nowhere near ready for that level of football. He is barely ready for nrl level, I think the knights game made that very clear. I'm sure he will become a top level player but he isn't there yet.
