NSW Origin lineup

[Ralph Dawg]

Having a quiet moment at work and started thinking what a NSW / ACT origin side might look like. Well here goes:
B Cunningham Finlayson Buckley
HB Cummings Rampe Williams
C Perryman Mills Smith
HF Heeney Himmelberg Breust
F Wicks Walker Marshall
Foll Witts Steele Hopper
Res Campbell Gulden Green Blakey
Other players Bruce, Bell, Parks, Flynn, Briggs, Lloyd, Vandenberg

I'm sure there are others but I reckon that team could spring an upset if they were firing.

Matthew Kennedy, Tom Hawkins, Phil Davis, Jacob Koschitzki, Ivan Soldo, Doughal Howard, Thomas Highmore, Jarrad Brander.

It could be even better. Hawkins is no slouch. Nor is Brander or Koschitzki. Howard is a quality backman, so is Davis

Wow, team is looking stronger. It would be interesting to see who would play for NSW versus Victoria. I'd bet Hawkins would go the big V.

He couldn't if it was state of origin. He would have to play for NSW

Ahahaaaha! I thought you were chatting to yourself!

I like the idea of an AFL state of origin series with all states playing each other. Not sure how you could fit it into the schedule though

Years ago there was a gun Allies team made up of players outside of Vic, SA and WA. Buckley was captain and Paul Kelly vice captain..IIRC, Danihers played plus other stars. Beat Vics or WA I think

Pretty sure Horse and Billy Brownless dominated that day.

Got a poster of that NSW team from Terry Daniher years ago (surely the first time 4 brothers played in the same State side)

Thought: Play Origin series carnival every 4 years. AFL rounds reduced to 17 every 4 years to accomodate it (teams play each other once). Could be ideally scheduled mid season. Hopefully the Northern Academies would strengthen the Northern States teams substantially over time.
