Origin needs Sonny Bill Williams

June 14, 2007

Where was Sonny Bill Williams as the NSW Blues lost their game 2 of the State of Origin series in 2007.

We all know Sonny Bill is a kiwi, and of course is ineligible for Origin selection. The QLD Maroons are lucky enough to have Karmichael Hunt as their custodian, the junior Kiwi picking Australia over his native New Zealand.

As a NSW Blues man, I wish we could have stolen Sonny Bill and made him eligible for Origin. His silky skills and most notably big hits and enforcement would be ideal for the NSW Blues side.

Sonny Bill is a figure feared when on the park, much like the QLD have in Tony Carroll, Carl Webb and Neville Costigan.

So Sonny if you ever want to start playing State of Origin, NSW will welcome you with open arms!
