Do most Aussies think league originated in Australia?
State of Origin is just great sporting spectacle full stop

We all see sporting events in different ways mate, I'm in Sydney at the moment and am fed up with turning on the t.v and it's not stop drool about origin....... Thank the lord it's only a 3 match series.

fed up? lol
its only on the news.
but yes the rubbish surrounding it is pathetic.
in the newspaper, i just keep turning the pages when there is origin articles. its just mundane and childish nonsense that they talk about. i can't believe that anybody would read it tbh.

It refers to the Origin of the player, the State where he played his junior football after a certain age (at least that was the idea when it started, it has been frigged around with since then) .

As in A Grade juniors? Most First Grade players are graded before they get that old.

It's actually where you play your first senior game eg under 19's. Greg Inglis played jnr footy in Nsw but played first senoir graded game for Brisbane norths (storms feeder club) which made him eligible for Queensland.

There having words on twitter. Credit to Demori if he can land the fight. He will fall very short. He definatly won't hear the final bell. In my humble opinion. All the same I for one wish him every success.

Managements are in talks, so fingers are crossed.
Sadly I think it will be a case of the fighters being keen, but Deontay's management doing a bit of research on Mark and picking an easier target.

Wilder's list of victims reminded me of a story I once heard about a Sydney University fifth grade Rugby coach searching male dormitories for warm bodies on Saturday mornings.

If you are not familiar with Rugby, it means young men capable of taking the field but not star material.
What did you think it meant?

Thats why when The Parrot coached the Balmain Rugby League side, back in the dressing rooms, the players used to pour ice down the front of their shorts so that AJ could have a cold one after the game!
