Over the past week, the Zero Hanger office caught State of Origin fever as we got excited about the possibility of the old format coming back in the future.
With the last State of Origin match being played in 1999, Australian football fans have had to go without the competition for the past 18 years, so we thought we'd bring it back in our own little way.
We've selected squads for Vic Metro, Vic Country, South Australia and Western Australia, with a view of the mini-tournament being held at the end of the year.
So here are all four squads in full, and our predictions as to how the competition would pan out.
Vic Metro
FB: Rory Atkins, Daniel Talia, Matthew Boyd
HB: Sam Mitchell, Michael Hurley, Heath Shaw
C: Tom Scully, Luke Parker, Andrew Gaff
HF: Jack Viney, Tom Boyd, Callan Ward
FF: Toby Greene, Tom Lynch, Robbie Gray
R: Max Gawn, Rory Sloane (c), Marcus Bontempelli
Interchange: Trent Cotchin, Josh P. Kennedy, Dan Hannebery, Marc Murphy
