    Post Season State of Origin?

    I'm all for ROK to bring back a State of Origin, after the season's over (so any injuries can be easily recovered from).

    But not the Allies v Vic anymore... These days with the AFL being a national sport, how about we have individual state teams, (NSW, Qld, WA, SA, Vic.. TAS?) - "Super Sixes"?.

    Wonder who could be the coaches? Hmm..

    Can you imagine Juddy and Pavlich together, or Magic with Ricciutto and Tredrea.. a match up Leo Barry on Hally in a big biffo (like WOAH!)

    Dunno about those Tassie blokes though we could bring back Lynchy and Cressa and string up our Willo.

    I think it should be a once every 4 years event but with all the states.
    I will be a member again when I return.

    No way, state games are boring, the only real footy is the home and away season, plus finals of course.

    replace international rules with state of origin! play at the end of the year every 2-3 years. those irish boys are too soft anyway . state of origin would have way more passion than IR- look at rugby league- origin is more important than internationals in that game.

    Yep. S.O.O. has always been a dud I reckon.
    Besides, I don't want to see fellow Swans go against each other. It goes against the whole Blood Brothers vibe they've created.

    It's quite funny that for Rugby League state of origin is the pinnacle of that sport but for footy it still remains the premiership.
    I guess it's the only time during the H&A season they get to play to a half decent crowd.

    But S.O.O. for AFL? Forget it. The only colours I want to see our players in is Red and White (excluding International Rules).
