I cant remember an origin game that has stood the test of time like some classic internationals
Tests are my passion..
I like SOO, It's great footy and it's a great excuse to get on the beers and grab a pizza in the middle of the week (ok I lie about beers in the middle of the week being a treat...) but it's not the be all and end all...
Newcastle winning a GF would have to be more important to me than a SOO win for NSW...
As a NSWelshman I have no passion and just don't get origin.
ThisI'd probably rather win a GF than an origin but that's probably got something to do with how hard it is to win a GF and that origin is a 2 horse race.
But come Origin time I am a huge fan.
Voted both.
Way to generalise!
If QLD get flogged in game 3, I'll still feel just as crazy about them (and you'll find that's the case with most QLDers).
On topic it's Cowboys > SoO> Australia.
When teams start beating Australia on a regular basis, that might change.
:lol::lol:Origin to me is like 20/20 cricket. Flashy, appeals to the masses, but mostly soulless and a bit of a joke. NRL is the purist's form of the game. Saints aren't just my passion, it's my motherfkn religion. Peace be with you, f**kers
