Hey Be-fagz, if you're a sports fan or interested at all about any type of rugby, I suggest you tune in to the State of Origin series. The first game is being played in a few minutes and I'm pretty sure most countries broadcast it either live or on delay on some crappy obscure channel at least.


State of Origin is the annual best-of-three series of rugby league football matches between the Maroons and the Blues, who represent the Australian states of Queensland and New South Wales respectively. Described as "sport's greatest rivalry,"the State of Origin series is one of Australia's and the region's premier sporting events, attracting a huge television audience and usually selling out the stadiums in which the games are played. Despite the existence of international tournaments and State of Origin being a domestic competition, it is frequently cited as being the highest-level of rugby league played anywhere in the world

It's the absolute pinicle of Rugby League and an often aggressive match. Fast-paced, big hits, (sometimes) fights. It's awesome.
