If they bought back state of origin

[Cassiew 157]

I hope they do it properly, like the original series, not the one like last time. Make it actually state against state, not “Victoria vs everyone else in a croweaters jumper”. It was embarrassing makes our sport look like a Victorian-dominated one, not one that encompasses the whole country. At least the RL version properly uses two states (even if that’s it). 

I had no problem with the original allies (Qld, Act, Nsw, Tas) as they don’t have enough players, but surely Wa and Sa have enough players in the AFL to represent their own state. We like to present Aussie rules as a national game, not a Victorian-dominated one. 

As a young girl, I used to love watching us play Sa. The rivalry was fantastic.
