state of origin
state of origin
An Aussie met a fairy who offered to grant him one wish.
"I want to live forever," he said.
"Sorry," said the fairy, "but I am not allowed to grant that type of wish."
"OK," he said, "Then I want to die when NSW wins the Rugby League State of Origin."
"You crafty bastard!" said the fairy
to you all you NSWelsh men

Re: state of origin
Good one Bob, even though I'm a blues supporter through and through, I'll pay that one. I like it. Lmao. Go the Blues.

Re: state of origin
I have zero interest in any kind of football and don't know why I even came in here, but I am glad I did. Bob that is priceless.
You are a funny fella.

Re: state of origin
A ringer from out back Queensland is talking to some tourist from New South Wales about dogs and the ringer is most concerned that one of his dogs has a problem. Every time Queensland wins a State of Origin game the bloody dog goes berserk and tears up the furniture in excitement. Rips up the lounge chairs and causes general kaos.
yeah well what does he do when New South Wales Wins asks the tourist.
Don't know is the reply I've only had the bloody dog for six years !!!!.

Can you feel the tension building
there’s expectation in the air
The Blues have made some changes
but do they think we really care.
Will the Hayne train be their savour
or just another cockroach dud.
Bring it on will be the catch cry
Cause we’ll just grind him in the mud.
There will be a lot of posturing
as their players praises do they sing
But Tricky Ricky knows too well
the bitter taste defeat will bring.
This game is where the roaches breed
they can’t afford to lose the plot
But our champion team is primed and ready
and they will give it all they’ve got.
The win’s so close that I can taste it
The Blues will cry and sob and mourn
And their home ground is no advantage
they have no pride in where they‘re born.
When the battle needs a champion
in defence or in attack
The Queenslander call will ring out
And someone will rise above the pack.
Lockyers playing like a teenager
Thaiday will tear the Blues apart
Billy Slaters primed and ready
you can see the passion in his heart
They keep saying that they’ve found it
that they are proud of their home state
but it just can’t be manufactured
that’s what makes Queenslanders great.
So as we raise the shield on high again
a record that just can not be denied
a team of champions ground into the dust by
Queensland the champion side .

Re: state of origin
Why thank you very much Neville. The mongrels better win or I'm for the chop have put so much crap on people this week I'll never be able to crawl out form under it all.
Any it is all in fun. NOT

Re: state of origin
The focus seemed to move away from Bill's joke, which I must say I really enjoyed, thanks Bill, & Bob's was a cracker as well, the poem Bob is a beaut, everyone at ABC today loved your 'State of Origin' poem, though it did not win the day, nor did mine, though I received two 2nd's & a 3rd.
