did you include Polynesian surnames similar to Edwards, Jennings & Pritchard

For which team? And is the percentage of Islanders without Polynesian/Melanesian/etc surnames likely to be any different in Queensland?

Once the number gets above zero I would have thought the odds of it being the same for both sides would be very slim....

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

They're under more pressure to assimilate up there.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Hey Pou - My apologies mate.

Don't apologise mate, I was just being a dickhead. Tyson Smoothy sounds like a parody name.

It doesn't need to be the same to be similar. If it's 10% in QLD and 12% in NSW it's still going to translate to less than one whole kid in each under 18s Origin side.

You can't just ignore 0.2 of a kid!!

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Why not? I ignore 100% of my own!

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

All this talk about chopping up children is a real indication of just how badly we're going.

 

[Bazal]

Why not? I ignore 100% of my own!

Well what if that 0.2 adds up to 112% and our boys only give the usual 110%??

We'll be f**ked then won't we?

is Jaiman Salmon an Islander?

I believe he is Alaskan

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Jamaican

 

[Happy MEel]

He’s actually Tasmanian...so an islander of sorts.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

So we're all islanders?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Then why don't we have Islander names?

Escobar became an Islander name when your grandfather crashed his drug plane here and thought, f**k it, this'll do.

 

[Bazal]

I have an Irelander name, and Ireland is an Island, does that count?

Yeah probably. Same here. I assume you feel a bit guilty about Jimoean as well?

 

[Bazal]

Look to be honest I feel like us Irish have been downtrodden for so long the rest of these high and mighty gobshites deserve Jimeoin.

I'm not sure if that has anything to do with the fact that I have been drinking Jameson from a schooner...

Jimoean Salmon?
