Blues appearances by someone born in Queensland: 0
Maroons appearances by someone born in NSW: 78 (Inglis, Thaiday, Gillett, Flannery, Folau, Crocker, Bowman)

I'm pretty sure Hodkinson played for the Cane Toads in the lower grades.

That's Queensland Residents. It was never intended as being "origin". SBW played for NSW Residents. Manly sent Hodkinson to play for a feeder club on the Sunshine Coast for a year, hence his status as a Queensland resident.

They're moving away from that idea now that the U20s Origin has started in recent years.

Only checked back to 2004:

Of 527 appearances each (31 games, 17 man squad per game):

Blues have had (by birth):
NSW: 473
Queensland: 0
Other Aus: 28 (Poore (WA) Tahu, Wallace (Vic), Dugan, Hoffman, Monaghan (ACT))
NZ: 18 (Mason, Tamou)
Other: 8 (Uate, McManus, El Masri)

Maroons have had (by birth):
Queensland: 379
NSW: 78 (Inglis, Thaiday, Gillett, Flannery, Folau, Crocker, Bowman)
Other Aus: 8 (Willie Tonga (ACT))
NZ: 29 (Papalii, Te'o, Hunt, Thorn, Carroll)
Other: 33 (Petero, Costigan, Kaufusi)


In the past 31 games, there have been 551 appearances by New South Welshman (including 78 by cross-border traitors) and only 379 by Queenslanders. That's a hell of a difference - almost 50% more.

That maybe so but a Maroon jersey is still a Maroon jersey. It definitely isn't sky blue.

There's a big difference between playing as a resident of one state in a Residents team vs playing as an Origin player in a state you didn't originate.
