Suckerforred you say:
But they are all Queenslanders!!!! Beau for example
Just like Israel Folou, Jono Lance, Brendan McKibbin are all such born and bred Waratahs!! As was Nathan Gray, Jason Little, Brendan Cannon, Ben Mowen, Drew Mitchell, etc before them.
Yes Beau in from NSW and the 'tahs didn't want him - but I don't think Beau will be seen too often in a Reds jersey this year unless injuries hit the Reds backrow. I do think he will be formidable in the NRC whoever he plays for.
Yes Lachlan Turner is now a Red but again the 'tahs didn't want him.
It's just the way of the Australian S15 Franchises that guys will play for a number of different franchises throughout their careers rather than play for the state where they grew up.
Look at the Brumbies backrow - Mowen (Born:Bne/School:Villanova), Pocock(Zimb/Churchie), Jarrad Butler(NZ/TSS) all Queenslanders. Granted not all born in Queensland but they are Queenslanders just like Greg Inglis!!!!
Just on a cross code projection what odds the Waratah finishing atop the Australian Conference and the NSWRL Blues avoiding 9-0 in the SOO???
Who would win a State of Origin Rugby clash between Qld and NSW?
Most important thing is that no matter what franchise they play for we just want the Wallabies to be successful.
