Queensland having a cry

No Kiwi has ever played for Queensland. Toni Carrol was a Queenslander. He sold his sole to Queensland and we gave him a shoe,,, or in this case a Maroon jumper.
NSW on the other hand virtually stole Aussie Jim straight out of the all-blacks cradle.

Qlders are like a chick. They get shitty at you for doing something, you point out how they've done the same thing 100 times before and they say 'but that was different'

That a thread titled "Queensland having a cry" is completely overrun by sobbing Blues fans is the very definition of irony.

And hilarity.

i'd say most of these had moved to brisbane with their parents before age 16. thorn played for brisbane wests in the old BRL comp at age 18 or so. lots of young NZ families move to australia for a better life, you know!

Much like James Tamou

Agreed they should just let players pick their own state. If there's some blatantly absurd decision like James Tamou defecting to NSW the admin should just step in and say sorry can't do it.

Ahh ... if NSW supporters didn't whinge about selection eligibility and Mitchell Pearce there would be nothing to talk about would there.

Pre-Origin, NSW were happy to select Queenslander players year after year and decimate the Queensland team. What goes around comes around. Looking at some of the scorelines of pre-Origin interstate clashes, we still have some catch-up to do.

And no, I don't hold a grudge, but amazed at how one reaps what one sows.
