Forget The Blues or The Maroons – it’s all about the biceps and abs with this in-depth look at which State of Origin team is the most aesthetically pleasing.
It’s Australia’s greatest sporting rivalry and although much of the nation is focused on which state will take home the shield, we’ve decided to tackle a much more important issue – which chiselled jaw line and well-sculpted torso gets our hearts racing faster than converting a try in the final minutes of the second half.
From Cronk to Merrin, the offside to the scrum, we’ve taken one for the team and left no ball un-handled as we take a very close look at the boys of the State of Origin – all in the name of journalism.
Click through and decide for yourself who deserves the title for the hottest team in the State of Origin
QLD: We’re not sure who benefits more from Billy Slater’s not-so-secret weapons, The Maroon’s or his stunning wife Nicole!
NSW: They say he “bats Merrins” dating surf goddess Sally Fitzgibbons, but we reckon Trent Merrin isn’t so bad himself.
QLD: Some say Greg Inglis is technically a New South Welshman, but we don’t care what colour his jersey is, as long as it’s tight.
NSW: Trent Hodkinson is known for kicking conversions, breaking hearts and having the best abdominal V in the NRL.
QLD: Safe to say that we’d fall in line for this dashing captain. Cameron Smith is the best hooker in the game, and our hearts.
NSW: Those arms, that torso and a career almost as impressive as his rugged good looks – need we say more about Michael Jennings?
QLD: We wouldn’t mind being cooped up with Cooper Cronk, wink, wink. His jersey says number seven, but that body is from heaven.
NSW: Josh Dugan’s position might be the half-back, but we’d like to see his full back. Something tells us Josh doesn’t do things in halves anyway.
QLD: Matt Scott’s run-returns might be eye catching, but my, oh my, so are those biceps!
NSW: Robbie Farah, or as we like to call him, Robbie Phwoar! We’d let this skipper steer us anywhere he’d like.
