Maybe I'm biased as my experience of NSW was Sydney, the Blue Mountains, the beautiful beaches.
My experience of Queensland was Bundaberg.

There is a lot more to Queensland than Bundy.
Mullets, XXXX Gold and Cane toad golf for example. |

Who are they? next origin will have 2 ex RU players playing in it.
Get real there are some very serious issues in NSW - they are producing a host of SL standard players - no wonder Queensland kick their Ass every year
Mitchell Pearce - he is a very average player who would not get anywhere near the Queensland side, Peter Wallace, bring Brett Finch back - I know how much you rate him, Tim Smith, another of your favourites, Jamie Soward, another the list of top quality NSW halves just keeps rolling of the keyboard |

RL is not as big in nsw as league fans like to think... there are not that many juniors playing the game these days.
most kids play soccer or any other sport and it's usually the left overs who stay with RL... these are the kids with poor skills who wont make it in soccer, union, afl or cricket or golf and tennis.
apart from the fact that just about any other sport in the world offers much more money and opportunities than RL why would any talented kid want to commit himself to league which is a very dangerous game that pays poorly.
also note than the nrl is on its last legs with most clubs struggling to stay afloat.
the salary cap has stayed the same for the past 10 years and now clubs like warriors, raiders, cowboys, newcastle, cronulla, manly are all running on the smell of an oily rag.
the player managers are not dumb, they can see the writing on the wall and are advising their players to leave the sinking ship while they still can.
