State of Origin. What a concept.

Mate vs mate. State vs state! The best of the best in front of the biggest crowds, in the biggest arenas, played before the biggest television audience.

The biggest snubs?

It sounds like a terrible reality TV show but boy howdy have their been some big name players overlooked in recent years.

Below we look at ten from recent seasons.

Of course this will depend on your interpretation of "snub" and "recent" but below are 10 players I can't believe weren't picked for an Origin series, or two.

Let us know in the comments of players you believed were unfairly overlooked for rep honours:

7. David Peachey (2001)

The Sharks were magnificent in 2001 and a large part of their success came due the form of their legendary fullback David Peachey.

It was expected he would add to his sole Origin (not counting Super League) from the previous season. Yet he would be overlooked for Mark Hughes.

No disrespect to Hughes, who himself had the Knights flying in the early rounds, but Peachey was the man for the job.

Unfortunately neither would represent their state moving forward but to this day I'm not sure how they didn't name the Peach.
