Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2435110, member: 1899"] Coxy's idea has merit but I just don't like it. If you're a Queenslander, you're also a proud Australian and you dream of wearing the green and gold. You don't play Origin for the fame or the money, you play because you bleed for your state & don't want to let your predecessors down. I don't believe we're seeing that with the likes of Tamou and I don't think we'd see it with Kasiano and the game would just dissolve into another exhibition game, when really it's the jewel crown of the game to many. I don't really have an issue where somebody was born or where they first played League. What I hate is this bulls**t song and dance these players do to up their own personal value. I can't believe a player like Kasiano doesn't know who he wants to represent at age 22 and really I think by the age of 15 or 16 when he's first signed his contract to a major NRL club, he should know & from that point on he cannot change his mind. There is so much more to this problem that needs addressing but to me, that'd eliminate the media circus that's going on right now and the need for QRL, NSWRL & NZRL to scout whatever talent they can persuade to represent them.
