Brian To'o

The 23-year-old, who will play his sixth game for NSW in the series decider, explained he will be “playing for my family” at the tournament in October.

As it stands, players such as To’o can represent NSW and Queensland in Origin before electing to play for tier-two nations.

But, speaking on Triple M, rugby league pundits explained they believed the system is flawed and players should elect where their future lies early in their careers.

To'o today was back to his usual destructive best, playing in his first game in over a month after being sidelined with an ankle injury.

The superstar Blues winger for the 15th time this season amassed more than 200 run-metres and came up with a try as the Panthers edged closer to claiming back-to-back minor premierships with one round remaining.

Moments after crossing for a try during the second half, To'o showcased his rock-the-baby celebration and blew out a kiss as part of a tribute to his younger nephew who passed away recently.

 Luai set up three tries, Kikau and To'o each bagged doubles while makeshift left centre Matt Burton crossed for one as Manly's right side defence was cut to ribbons in ruthless fashion.

 The 40-point loss is Manly's biggest ever at their home ground which was once a fortress but now holds few fears for visiting teams.

 Halfback Nathan Cleary wasn't heavily involved in the attacking plays but kicked brilliantly throughout with both high and short kicks causing the Manly backs endless headaches.
