Origin is average, why do you love it so much?

Fredie = legend.

Can this thread be moved to where it belongs please.


NRL and Australian RL


I believe it's called.

Since Freddie is my long lost twin can you talk about it on here?

why do people like ferraris

i dont understand why we cant talk about it here. everything else is in this forum . origin is a mega success. on the frontier's of rugby league progress

there are alot of ex-origin players all over the world still playing .europe uk-have the the 4 nations or whatever . and we have the origin and a test vs nz . who do you go for . im a blue . blue power

Im a blue as well fredie,but you have to understand that to most non-NSW/Qld people,its just another game.Blues to win 2-1 !!

Go Queensland all the way to LA.

bog off over to the NRL/aussie board...

bog or bug?

thats the problem right there

no . we can talk any rugby league topics in this forum . ok

I reckon a team half full of polynesian players will beat another team half full of them.

you cannot be serious

i know what your getting at . you dont watch it do you

Origin is only successful in undermining the international calendar. Nobody outside of Australia gives a cr@p who wins. It's a good spectacle, don't get me wrong. But it is not very important outside of Australia and is definitely not more important than a good international series could be.

I'd rather watch a 3-test series between Australia and New Zealand personally.

as opposed to SL games which involves teams half full of NRL players beating another team half full of NRL players

australians come from polynesian countries.

just because their parents are tongan doesnt make them any less of an aussie than someone whose parents came from england

Phil Bailey played Origin didn't he? Wasn't Matt King a star in Origin?

steele retchless was a star of SL.

how many aussie players are there in SL who nobody in aussie has heard of except their parents.

i mean jason demetriou was off to england for a holiday and had pretty much given up on making it in RL in Oz.

and then he became captain of a SL side

can everyone just calm down please . we want to be civil . thankyou

steele retchless was only a star of SL because he had a funny name...

so whats funny about jason demetrious name?

though hearing about glen morrison playing some games at 6 is really, really funny.

david solomona was a handy forward with a good offload in the nrl, and in SL he becomes a playmaker.

Solomona has played in the halves twice, and is a fat bloater. Chris Flannery played in the halves at Origin didn't he?

so where did solomona learn to be a play maker?

or maybe the skills of a forward in the NRL are good enough to be a play maker in SL?

todd payten things hes got the skills of a half back, sign him up

after going to 7 world cup games its good to have origin where you dont have to worry about blow outs and the quality of the game is fantastic.

im all for RL growing and what not, but there are times as a RL fan i just want to sit back and enjoy a fantastic game and not be worried that if one team dominates RL will get a black eye and be made a joke of.

international rl maybe be a work in progress with a lot of holes in it, but origin is simply perfect.

you can show up every year expecting great contests
