Message: [QUOTE="mstreet, post: 3576289, member: 11634"] I love the inclusivity. No matter your origin story, if you are good enough in your own right, there's a place for you. I love the grass roots, working class origins. I respect teamwork and comradery. People willing to pay the price to further the team. The selflessness. I like the character arc over a career. Hero, villian, hero. Hello Justin Hodges. I love that due to having 40 minute halves, a team needs balance. Not just a power game, but endurance, tenacity. I love that little men, like Langer, can change a game. Proving time and time again, it's not the size of the dog, but the fight in the dog. Came to league via state of origin. It is mandatory viewing in Qld. Hard to describe families glued to a then bulky tv, screaming at it. I love the rituals around family viewing of origin. Whether it be inviting people around for roast, beers, or bbq. Origin is a time of gathering. Much like Xmas. Then Qld got its own team. Being in sunshine coast, Broncos by default. I've been a tragic every since. In the days of VHS, and channel nine. Recorded all the games played on nine. Rewatched, and then rewatched. Especially in the off season lol. Rugby league brings people together. You forget the week. Gives you something to look forward to. [/QUOTE]
