LOL at South Sydney fans getting all bent out of shape just because their oversized five-eighth didn't get picked.

Neither him nor Reynolds should have been picked TBH.

so did you stop supporting souths through all the years they made poor selection/recruitment/strategic decisions?

fmd i'd hate to be in the trenches with you

I'm sure you want to see Dragons players do well. If you have reps only in the NSW side or in both, it's easy to support NSW.

When you have 4 players in the QLD team and none playing for NSW, it becomes a tough selection.

Why would we support a team full of players that we hate on a weekly basis?

There are no Souths players in the NSW team so there is no buy in for Souths fans.

Sutton is the only Souths player that deserved a shot for NSW. All their other good players are either Queenslanders, Pommies or Kiwis. Daley was always going to go with Pearce at 7 and Reynolds wasn't the only better player that got snubbed.

But continue being mad over 1 player :lol:

Hmmm so I guess all Knights fans are going to be supporting Queensland this year because of Boyd. Is that how it works?

I guess having players selected for Origin is quite new for Rabbitohs fans so we shouldn't blame them for getting a bit confused.

because you pick a team and support the team.

when it comes to origin and team selection, the criteria would be simple to most folk.

you pick a side and support them, regardless of the players in the side.

I really couldn't care how many Bulldogs players are in the NSW or Qld sides. I'm from NSW and I will support them no matter what. I don't 't support NZ in test matches because Eastwood, Perrett, Pritchard, Kasiano play for them so why should it be any different for Origin?

well by the logic in this thread if the two Burgess boys play for the pommies and only GI makes the aussie side, all the souths fans will be english for the day

It's a pointless addition. The only thing that Reynolds adds is a replacement if Farah gets injured.

You other mongs just don't get it...

We've picked a team and we support it through thick and thin. That team is South Sydney.

Shouldn't you be pissed off at Qld for selecting 3 of your players and thanking NSW for not selecting any then?

The NSW side is bigger than any player for a NSW fan, likewise QLD would be for a QLD fan...

Just chucking a hissy fit because not 1 player from your club has been picked in the NSW side and wanting to change ans support QLD means you have you priorities wrong

That's a f**king awful reason. How about the fact that there's Souths fans from NSW? Is being from NSW not a reason to go for NSW? The only reason I wouldn't go for NSW is if the team was full of Queenslanders. You don't watch Origin to see your club's players play, you watch because you want to see your state win.
