I can't play Rugby League for New Zealand or even for Queensland, am I being discriminated against?

You can play for the equivalent against those sides though. Outside of their nation not playing the sport, no one is excluded from having the opportunity to play international footy.

What opportunity is there for people of other cultures to represent their culture in a one off game?

No I can't, I'm ineligible to play state of origin despite being an Australian citizen and living in NSW for 25 years.

I am not sure why you would be ineligible but if what you say is true i would suggest the eligibility rules need amending.

You are excluded from playing Origin if you weren't living in either state prior to the age of 13 (with the exception being if your Dad played for either state.

This is discrimination according to the rednecks in this thread.

I’ve no idea who this GW is but I’m guessing he triggers you. Again ask roughyedspud and I’m sure he’ll confirm me as Walter sobchak off the “league express” forum who was accused of being a pro-trump putin puppet!!! lol

Anyone who brings politics up unpromoted, and totally off topic, in a footy forum is clearly a f**king moron.

And anybody who goes around aggressively accusing people of being somebody they are not is clearly a sandwich short of a full picnic.

Also I only brought up politics because there are hundreds of posters on league express and roughyedspud will only remember my political posts rather than my RL posts as they standout more.

I’m thinking the kiwis will get flogged.
The aboriginal is far far superior natural athlete.

Bingo, I was born and lived in South Australia until the age of 14, I can play for Australia but cannot play for NSW or Queensland. Its possible to be born overseas and be allowed to play for Australia but not play be ineligible for Queensland or NSW.

We have spent 100 years trying to tell kids to ignore colour .. ignore race .. treat everyone the same

And now we all try work it out if Dylan walker looks brown enough to be Maori..

You don't need to ignore race or colour, that is the point. It is not racism to acknowledge someone is Aboriginal, Maori or has different colour skin. Its racism when that acknowledgement come along with a sense of superiority based on that race or skin colour.

Don’t some dumb f**ks get that the aboriginals are a minority that we have f**ked over since day dot. Giving them a footbal side is not segregation, it’s giving them SOMETHING back

so it seems that if you don’t think this is a good idea you’re just a massive racist?

More like just an idiot. And not a pure idiot, maybe uneducated idiot.

Oh well I guess I’m just an uneducated idiot for thinking a game that’s pits our black people against your black people is a nonsense idea.
