Douche.[/quote:3sicbyob] I'm not questioning his eligibility ya goon bag. Technically, according to the rules he is eligible to play for QLD. I'm not disputing that. I'm just saying that I think it's lame a shit that some players out there who have grew up and were born in NSW, claim themselves to be Queenslanders when they've spent most of their life in NSW. The true meaning of "origin" is all but gone. Queenslanders harp on about being "passionate Queenslanders" and they pride themselves on how much support they show their state but I think they are the real ones that have trouble understanding what State Of Origin really means.[/quote:3sicbyob] LOLZ! When you mentioned Falou you lost all credibility. He left as a kid, moved to QLD, spent his most important years (of his very young life) developing here, ergo he's a Queenslander. If someone has been in Australia for 6 or 7 years, and they have sworn citizenship, doesn't that make them Australian? Thought so. I'm still chuckling over the fact you looked up "origin" in a dictionary, thereby missing the entire (or "true" as you put it) understanding of the eligibility of SoO or simply ignoring them to try and sustain some credibility.
