‘Go look at the rules’: Bennett slams changing Origin eligibility as ‘waste of time’ – Fox Sports
Legendary former Queensland coach Wayne Bennett has blasted talk Pacific Islanders like Jason Taumalolo could play Origin, declaring the rules “are the rules”.
Debate around the criteria for Origin has intensified after North Queenslands Tongan lock Taumalolo expressed interest in representing the Maroons in this years series.
Taumalolo is currently ineligible to play Origin because he has played for top-tier nation New Zealand, even though he lived in Queensland before his 13th birthday.
