Ken Gargett Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Okay, imagine a State of Origin Rugby game. I think it would be a brilliant way to have a Wallaby trial and would fill Suncorp to the brim. Southerners, pick your teams. For the glorious Queensland team, how about – Mogg Izzy Sautia or Tapuai O'Connor Digby Cooper Genia Higginbotham Mowen Gill or Pocock Horwill Simmons Slipper Moore Holmes Reserves from Toomua, Tomane, Brown, McMeniman, Mitchell, Frisby, even Barnes and a few to add. Good luck, NSW. Not even the corrupt IRB could save you from this lot.

asmith Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Why does that read like the Wallabies Team V a bunch of guys who are fringe players except for the Two Bens?
Fuzz AI Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Hell if I know. I just remember someone sending me the list thinking I'd be faintly interested.
Fuzz AI Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 The Fainga'a brothers are from the ACT not NSW Actually, Queanbeyan is in NSW.
frenchkiwi Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 worth a shot, they should've been doing a 3 match series long ago at the end of the super season while the kiwis and saffas are having their provincial comps... (they might have had the odd Qland v NSW provincial clash??) but then they chose to expand the S15 instead. and the tri- now -quadrupled nations. shame
