10 Players That Represented Australia But Never Played State Of Origin (NRL)

[@greatest_game_of_all]

Hi guys, both our number 1 & 3 picks respectively made their State Of Origin debuts in game 1 of the 2020 series. Therefore, they now do not fit the criteria for this list. Can you name anymore players that could replace them for this list?

[@eldderkingsmartz2486]

Jake Friend played the 2020 State of Origin for QLD

[@kyliefletcher9041]

No

[@gavinringland1362]

North west coast club

[@mrscammer571]

Jake friend played for QLD in 2020

[@NoahJoh]

Such an Underated Channel to be honest

[@jacobgleggvlogs9059]

I Just Said That

[@brandonbest8105]

Oath

[@R_B69]

I would argue that State of Origin is a higher honour than playing for Australia.

[@velocityjet1884]

By far it is, it's the highest honor in any Rugby league level or competition in the world

[@dylanjhugroo3052]

Logically speaking, that can’t be. But you’re right. It shouldn’t be that way, and it speaks volumes about how international rugby league isn’t where it should be.

[@musicedits9776]

love your work man, need more rugby league content creators like you

[@jakeharrison8015]

Luke keary made it this year in game 1

[@npd6225]

It really shows that origin is the pinnacle of our game.

[@weburnitatbothends]

Jake Friend, love his work, what a machine, a gentleman and a true players player, I really hope he gets to run on for Queensland this year to smash a few Blues.

[@thatmobi]

He retired 2017 or 2019

[@jasegtree1206]

Jake Friend got his call up this year and served his state well 👏👍

[@micklats5584]

Jake Friend’s only obstacle for selection in 2020 comes in two words: Harry Grant!

[@joekattan2234]

Shouldn't be considered anymore, he is past his best and is pretty average now. Give the new guys who will be there for years to come a shot instead.

[@nahtruelad]

Koroisau 😢

[@R_B69]

Not anymore!

[@davidbalchin5639]

Nah mate. Ben Hunt will go 9, and I dont think there will be space for those two on the bench

[@anthasam1523]

He might have a chance

[@adamngangan7416]

You forgot Jordan McLean. He represented Australia 8 times (from 2017-2018) and hasn't stepped foot into the state of origin arena yet.

[@__dr_editzz7390]

are u sure he is from qld or nsw

[@tannerbrown2247]

alex Johnston has now pledged his alegenst to play for PNG

[@QuantumFeldspar]

Alegenst bahahaha

[@nixoneato68]

Allegiance... Please go to school

[@EpiiKxKiller]

In my opinion playing for NSW is alot harder than playing for Australia because of the competition, both QLD and NSW could beat every international team

[@braithleatham2790]

Very very good video, no Mitchell Aubusson??

[@txddyfarquh69]

That head knock should have woken Keary up to fly the Toad colours lol but I DEF see Jake Friend donning a Toad jersey this year....idk why he hadn't been selected before. Dudes an absolute Player!

[@MrPaul1collins]

Good video. Funny how they are almost all from NSW

[@noahbrannelly7795]

Yeah

[@weburnitatbothends]

Andrew Walker, wow what a player

[@mazzakhan1807]

Once SBW showed up, forwards just stopped running hard and straight🤣 I don't blame them😬🤒🤕🤕

[@levulaameo6960]

Please do a ben barber video about why he isn't playing for Australia or an origin

[@troystaunton254]

Because A) he’s an alcoholic. B) he’s never been the best Queenslander in his position. C) he beats his misses like a drum.

[@lmaolmao8421]

D. He shit

[@avixau1664]

Blues went 16 in a row

[@TheBriwi]

This list sums it up for league, as sad as it it... A state vs state selection game means more than an international cap....

[@tiotiwilliams8311]

Friend and Keary has played origin this year

[@Jay-ux5eo]

I'm hoping my man Jake Friend gets a go for Queensland this year.

[@killiankaraut8381]

Jake at 9 and harry grant on the bench 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@tomauvaa8835]

Yeah hopefully jet gets that number 9 jersey. He is right hooker for Queensland

[@frankiekogan5518]

He deserves it for sure

[@bradthegamerr3438]

Smithy will get it

[@aimee3358]

No Thanks, Would take Harry Grant over him any day

[@ClarkeysColumn]

Great video.

[@lachlanquarmby9271]

Shannan Boyd should be on the lost played 5 games for Australia yet never represented the blues

[@sakatagintoki2888]

Laurie Daley was such a shit coach, overlooked so many in form players that could've competed with qlds team

[@skeeza168]

Sakata Gintoki fuck Daley dont know how he coached the blues for so long. never forget when he chose an out of form Dylan Walker on the bench to play 9 minutes and make an error in 2016 game 1

[@stevenwebb3634]

Dally Messenger, Dave Brown, Clive Churchill, Johnny Raper, Norm Provan, Noel Kelly, Arthur Summons,Reg Gasnier, Graham Langlads, Bob Fulton,

[@connormccauley1300]

Good list mate

[@txddyfarquh69]

L.Keary and J.Friend get their chance to shine in 2020

[@troystaunton254]

It’s a joke blacklock was kept out by ainscough and Matt Geyer. Neither were even close to him.

[@stewartmarler1416]

Interesting that the majority are New South Welshmen, overlooked by NSW selectors. Many of the them are the kind of player QLD would pick. Yet, NSW has over 50 players that have only played one SOO match, so it's not like they don't try new blood. They just don't have the same acumen for picking the underrated but honest and devoted player that QLD do.

[@gabbyt98]

Jake Friend did play for the maroons last year

[@sionemanu5235]

Love the channel but think the title of this segment should be people who didn't make NSW 😊😊😊 but still an awesome cover

[@hayreddinbarbarossa661]

To be fair with that SBW hit, it didn't slow Clinton down for a second. Bloke got more whiplash than me when hit by a truck and he just powers through it.

[@cairnscsupercard1675]

Friend got his dream in 2020

[@kezdogz5408]

Chris Lawrence my man

[@cameronduggan493]

100%

[@cameronduggan493]

Sucks that he is always injured

[@Auto_Crispy]

Jake Friend played state of Origin last year in 2019

[@bobhawke7373]

Blacklock should have played in 3 or 4 SoO series at least

[@fiohon467]

You missed Jarrod Crocker, kyle feldt, Beau Ryan, Chris Heighington,

[@thatboy6532]

Croker hasn’t played for Australia. He got to the train-on squad in 2010, but that really it.

[@franzatencia6430]

Why does the thumbnail include Jake Friend? I don’t get it because he played this year’s series

[@looo5829]

Because he made this list before origin?

[@franzatencia6430]

True...

[@naomifishpool2680]

Mitchell Aubusson!!

[@mathewjr]

I just wasted my time watching all the NSW players 😜 Nothing about QLD..

[@JamesF9111]

ikr

[@zechariahliu958]

aha frick not that much qld players man

[@mathewjr]

True. Most of the top players in the NRL now are NSW. 👍

[@UlyssesSeraphim]

Jake has now played

[@zilxlsturn7456]

Do u go for nsw or qld

[@dymarnofficial7592]

Do the Qld one..

[@jeanford5333]

RENI IS MY UNCLE FUNNY HAHAHA

[@sd097]

Surprised Andrew walker and Nathan blacklock didn't play the race card

[@OGTrollTroll8]

They’re better then that. Not like the sooks of today. NSW definitely were suspect.

[@quillzy0318]

Cmon friendy!!!!

[@joshtaylor2573]

We can scratch Jake friend off the list

[@lla1148]

Though he has pledged his allegiance to play for PNG, can Johnston still play Origin? Like Adrian Lam?

[@roryalcock4801]

Yeah pretty sure he can because PNG aren’t a tier one nation

[@JohnDoe-ij7et]

Chris Lawrence - decided to go with guys like gasnier , lol how would he ever be picked infront of gaz n Jennings, they were way better then him, I’m surprised he made it in the national team with guys like gaz n Inglis in their prime, probably only made it in cause of injury’s, i got nothing against him, he’s a solid player, but that position has always been filled with guys like gaz, Jennings, cooper, Morris boys, he would never of made it infront of them. Luke keary has to make it this year, he’s on fire, best half nsw have. Who would u like to see him paired with. Cleary, Pearce, Moses. I personally think he would work best with Pearce, Pearce has the best maturity n game management n would sit back a bit more n let keary work his magic n deliver him to ball he needs, Cleary to full of himself n would try n run the show when keary is a better creative half. I don’t see Moses being picked infront of Pearce or Cleary, especially when Pearce already has experience with cook n teddy in the spine. I think Pearce would accomodate keary the best. Cleary would be to busy trying to be a hero instead of letting the better half keary do his thing. Can’t wait for the hate.

[@anthasam1523]

Keary has played last year

[@ulaiamanu7500]

Keary did make nsw

[@southsea8252]

Nsw selectors should hang their heads in shame for not picking Blacklock

[@thetrickster3309]

Jarrod croker he was unlucky

[@MicklePickle03]

Luke Burt??

[@OGTrollTroll8]

So your telling me all these players except one were over looked by NSW? No wonder QLD thrashed them for 8 straight and beyond

[@narellerichardson6768]

What about Ryan Papenhuyzen

[@BYONYX_420]

99% of the list are NSW players bloody clowns 🤣🤣 keep the vids up bro great shit 👌

[@alazaytauvao322]

jake friend until last month

[@jakeharrison8015]

U know alex johnten made the team but was the 18 man

[@miokkumasi6861]

I only watched this thinking there would be other Queenslander's

[@gavinringland1362]

North west coast club

[@kaydenwillis4103]

Jake friend has now

[@ligmyballs9707]

I’m related to Andrew walker

[@tropickkdae2676]

cool?

[@nicholaslehner222]

Croker is unluckiest

[@ryleylacaze6207]

What about jarrod crocker

[@walterbourne4172]

I swear Lawrence played origin early in his career

[@velocityjet1884]

He got selected in the 40 man NSW preliminary squad, but unfortunately, he did not get selected to play a game

[@jakeharrison8015]

And Jake friend made qld team as dummy half

[@michaelslawyer10]

Shannon Boyd?

[@Nerdificationing]

No Blacklock selection for Origin was racist

[@OGTrollTroll8]

NSW usually are

[@tannerbrown2247]

wheres jarrod Crocker

[@nesahkukurai6215]

Ryan James??

[@A.Khanage]

beau ryan ?

[@jackcvyt]

Where’s the qld

[@pabloneizion2592]

Croker?

[@tigerwarsaw99]

Joel Clinton was garbage at Broncos

[@guigui4763]

Shanon boyd?

[@conspiracyowl2982]

Friend is not as good as Cook.

[@kilalucas120]
