Message: [QUOTE="Hamm.0, post: 2217540, member: 1852"] There are scores of QLD Origin players I love; Lockyer, Langer, Meninga, Miles, Bella, Gillmeister, Larson, Lindner, Backo, Conescu, Shearer, Webcke, Civo, Price, Jackson, Moore, Renouf, Belcher, Steve Walters, Kev Walters, Tallis, Gee, the list goes on and on and that is no disrespect to the players not listed. There is only two NSW players I liked; Sterling and Pearce. There are many NSW players I begrudgingly respected; Elias, Roach, Sironin, Stuart, Daley, O'Connor, Johns (the brother that actually had skill), Jack, Mortimer. However, there is still only one who stands head and shoulders above the rest, who epitomises what Origin means; The King. He was (and still is to an extent) Origin; [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NottgZJhUk&feature=related"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NottgZJ ... re=related[/url] That is what the QLD public thought of his greatness, nobody sends off the King without a good reason or else! Also, think of his nickname, which the players actually called him...The King. Utmost respect by all who played with and against him. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKrkSX0I6O4"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKrkSX0I6O4[/url] Watch how he comes in flying, then heads straight to the ref! Knew how to get what he wanted.(P.S. Peter Jackson what a player R.I.P.) Only the true greats control Origin; Lockyer, Lewis, Langer, Sterling, Fittler to an extent. Nobody else has done it, except Andrew Johns, in one game ever.
