Origin or 'State of Origin' is a 3 match battle between Australian
Rugby League's two premier state's; NSW and
QLD.
Player's are chosen on a 'state of origin' basis rather than on which state they currently live.
For three matches the gameplay takes sideline to
hitups, hardhits and fighting. Many memorable hits have been thrown and sometimes games are so overtaken by fighting and smashing the opposition that a match may end up 2-0. (4 points for a try and 2 points for a goal).

Australain 1: "Let's get a case and get fucked up watching 'origin'."
Australian 2: "Why does Robbie O'Davis play for Newcastle in (
NSW), but played origin for
Queensland?"
Australian 1: "Coz hes from
QLD, that's why they call it 'state of origin'."
