It is something that I have been passionate about and I know even others who do the same but don't show it and that is supporting the NSW Blues Rugby League Team in the first Game of Australian State of Origin for 2016.
It is isn't compulsory to support them but it helps. I have pretty much watched all games on television of the State of Origin since it started.I have even been to of of the earlier games at SCG (Sydney Cricket Ground), wet and washed with spurts of rain on myself, especially towards the end of the game!
Currently best out of games wins series and so far NSW has won 13 series to QLD 22 wins. So Queensland have the leading edge. It is always great to watch games where NSW win matches and also to see how 'The Reds' beat us at times.
Wishing a great win to the NSW Blues, I'm sure if they win there will be a lot of happy people in Mount Druitt, with bright conversations of tries, goals and tackles.
Rugby League is not everyone's sport and a lot of new Australians take time to work out what it is and then do the same as myself. With 5 debutantes in the NSW side, odds favour the Maroons as they try to dominate all the series.
