Choose a first XV to represent your Super 14 side. Only players born in that geographical area qualify.

1. Rodney Blake
2. Stephen Moore
3. Greg Holmes
4. James Horwill
5. Nathan Sharpe
6. Mark Chisholm
7. David Pocock
8. Richard Brown
9. Will Genia
10. Quade Cooper
11. Lote Tuqiri
12. Berrick Barnes ©
13. Digby Ioane
14. Peter Hynes
15. Drew Mitchell

Notable omission: James O'Connor

- Not the strongest front 5 but the loose is quick and agile and the backline would stand up to any in the world.

Blake was born in Tonga and grew up in Sydney. Half that team wasn't born in QLD.

I should have made it where you played your first serious rugby - sames rules that apply to the rugby league state of origin series. Obviously Tuqiri (Fiji), Ioane (Melbourne), Genia (PNG), Pocock (South Africa) and Cooper (New Zealand) were not born in Queensland but that's either where they grew up or went to school and would thereby qualify. You called me on Rodney Blake though, he is defiantly from NSW.
