Wonder how toothless Rabbitohs fans will whinge about the anti-souths agenda in rep selections if Cook is picked
if not picked, selfishly, not fussed. Souths already have several rep players and if he's not selected, he stays to play in the NRL in an already weakened team. losing Inglis and Gagai over the period and the Burgess boys for the Denver test.
It could vindicate what Crichton says though that playing at other clubs gives a NSW player a better chance at selection (partly why he's leaving). What Souths fans need to realise is that our best players over the last few seasons haven't been NSWmen. Everything but!
End of the day, who gives a f**k! Is this the big story that's going to come out of selections?
Rorters and Illawarra could each have upwards of 5 players each selected in Origin. Steelers could be wiped out when you add their poms and kiwi in addition to Origin. Hope it f**ks their season
