I can’t remember that far back, but wasn’t he playing in England?

Wendell Sailor’s auto- biography said that he went over there after a clash with Bennet. Maroons were obviously struggled and sent out an SOS - I wouldn’t even know if a player playing in the super league would be allowed to under current rules, i wouldn’t know.

Fifita is NSW eligible, but has ties to his Nationality. I think it is unfair to make him choose one or the other, especially considering the financial benefits, and has made such big contributions to NSW and Australia and the NRL in general.

It should be no different to Hoppa not wanting to play on Sunday - we should just respect his decision and let him make the most of whatever oppurtunities are presented to him.

Quite simple. If it were a QLD player there would be articles out saying "Let him play" or something similar.

If the Blues want to win they should pick him, he's the best forward in the game right now and carved game 1 last year - all this talk about commitment, character, culture, passion bla bla, hasn't won the blues ****. Half the squad picked will be ****wits anyway

The blues have had inferior players who haven't brought their best games consistently to that arena. You need to pick your best players that are eligible, if Andrew doesn't decide he wants to play Origin I respect that and so be it
