Mondy Crew - (State of Origin) - Ideas

[NAGG]

To be quite honest I beleive it has to be the state you cheer for at state of origin time.

Many people can call themselves QLD'ers but really most are just southern neighbours that have invavded SEQ and what jersey would you actually wear? A true QLD'er will wear the maroon jersey in any state and so would a NSW supporter.

Cheers

Lee

P.S Yes I am from down south

you cant do that ..... how many would admit to being a NSWelshman ..... Yes there are a lot of transplants that call themselves a Qlder ...... but we need to keep it balanced
Place of birth - unless 20 years in Qld ..... maybe ?

I love Qld - but I'm a blue ....... besides Maroon is just a dark shade of pink

Well there you go!!

Even though i have been living in Queensland for 31 years i figure that i would have to be selected for NSW

Yes, a big call but, even though i consider myself a Queenslander in every other aspect, the fact that i have already represented NSW in the Australian Fishing Titles seals the deal!!!!! Go the Blues, in the fishing that is,

Now how does that sound???? in the Footy we have players representing QLD who were born in NSW, played their first game in NSW but have said they are QLDlanders, then we have the Polynesians, including our Kiwi brothers, i ask how can they represent either NSW or QLD in State Of Origin

So i guess its goes the way anybody says they want to play/fish, i don't bloody know i'm pissed, trying to get a good nights sleep for a change!

Now we have Tropicaltrout, Nath our good mate from the apple isle who the hell is he going to fish for???

Then you have the Teflon coated one, where do you slot him?????

We need one selector to form both sides after a quite word with each fisho

Cheers & Good Luck

I think its best to nominate which team you want to fish for and then go from there.

I guess the way to seal the deal is to ask this question -

QLD : If you were surrounded by 40000 screaming blues supporters at a blues home game would you still wear your Maroon jersey (and not be scared)?

NSW : If you were surrounded by 40000 screaming maroons supporters at a maroons home game would you still wear your Blues jersey (and not be scared)?

Answering yes to one gives you the team they need to fish on. If you answered no you cannot compete

Also all other invaders of this great state that are not from NSW get to choose.

Thanks John

I always knew the selection criteria was always going to be a tough call - needs discussion at the CM

Just back to the real footy selections - I didn't think the Kiwi & Polynesian players could be selected unless they started their junior footy in Qld or NSW ....... Some one like Benji Marshall confuses me - Kiwi born , played school footy on the gold Coast , played Aust School boys , Grade for West Tigers ....... Capt of NZ ...... hell we need him paying for the blues

Lets just throw all the names of the invaders (not from NSW) in a hat and draw them out to build up the teams. Born and bred stay with that state.
We could also have an all islander team which Nath could captain
