No-one interested in the State Of Origin?

It's sport at its very best. Any of you know about Rugby League? It's one of the toughest, most physical sports there is.

State Of Origin is played between footy players from New South Wales against players from Queensland, both of which are states of Australia. It's the pinnacle of Rugby League, only Australians are eligible and it's taken more seriously than playing for your own country, mostly because Australia is so much better than everyone else.

I know that sounded arrogant, but it's sadly true, mostly because Rugby League is only popular in countries like England, New Zealand, France, Lebanon, Fiji, Papua New Guinea and various other smaller countries. They even have a small professional competition in the USA.

The point is, Game II is on Wednesday and the Blues (NSW) need to win to the series alive.

Sorry for the ramble.

GO THE BLUES!

P.S Someone ANSWER!
