Next Year, 2009. NRL are going to include a New Series....

GREG HORNE CUP

A mix of State Of Origin, and Test Match....

A 2 team series, which is going to be aimed at providing the state of origin feel but with the international inclusion of players such as Sonny Bill Williams, and Jamie Peacock, to bring the real rush of how State of Origin should be, with international mix.

First Match will be in Sydney on August 22nd 2009.

Second Match in Auckland 29th

Will you be there?

  1. How do they pick a team? Captains stand up and pick a player each until they have a team  - lol.

    Who do the teams represents or is it just going to be an "all stars" match like the American pro-bowls. Like an exhibition match where no one gives a F^%k and have nothing to play for. My opinion, unless the fans and the players can be passionate - like playing for club, state or country - whats the point.


  2. Sounds like a stupid attempt to bring international players into SOO. Sounds c**p.

  3. Exactly. Where will they get their passion from?

    They have nothing to fight for, no dignity to restore, no reputation to fulfill.

    Its pointless.

  4. I really don't know.. how about you tell us if we'll be at this fictional event that exists in your head???

    Greg Horne is the name of a nobody, you have no reference and you have no credibility at all. S.O.O doesn't need Sonny Bill or some English t**t... it is the  showcase of rivalry, excitement and football in Australia.

    AFL origin... cheap rip-off that failed...

    NFL pro bowl... has no heart...

    Soccer... who cares...

    English Superleague... their Origin pales in comparison.

    NRL State of Origin ... The real deal that can't be improved or matched.

  5. It will not happen. Y will they wana play? where will they get the passion from? i would rather a week off if i was playing in da NRL

  6. i reckon it wud be a bit boring..

  7. nothing compares with state of origin,its the cream of the cream

  8. I agree mate, what a match it will be.
