Australian rules football matches between teams representing Australian colonies/states and territories have been held since 1879. For most of the 20th century, the absence of a national club competition and international matches meant that games between state representative teams were regarded with great importance. Football historian John Devaney has argued that: "some of the state of origin contests which took place during the 1980s constituted arguably the finest expositions of the game ever seen."[1] Australian football under lights at AAMI Stadium in Adelaide. ...

Description

Until 1976, interstate Australian rules football games were played by teams representing the major football leagues or organisations. From 1977 to 1999, players were generally selected under State of Origin selection rules and they were chosen mostly from the Australian Football League (AFL). Since 2000, all matches have been between teams representing the second-tier state or terriorial leagues. Players from the AFL no longer take part in interstate matches. The Australian Football League (AFL) is the Australian national competition in the sport of Australian rules football. ...

The matches have mostly been held on a stand-alone basis. However, an Australian Football Carnival, a national championship series, held in either one or two cities, took place between 1908 and 1993, usually at three year intervals. Teams which have taken part have included a combined Australian Amateurs team, Australian Capital Territory (ACT), New South Wales (NSW), NSW-ACT, New Zealand (NZ; 1908 carnival only), Northern Territory, Queensland (Qld), Qld-NT, South Australia (SA), Tasmania (Tas), Victoria (Vic), the Victorian Football League (VFL), the Victorian Football Association (VFA) and Western Australia (WA). The Allies, a combined team representing the states and territories other than the three major Australian rules states — South Australia, Victoria and Western Australia — also took part in State of Origin games during the 1990s.

History

Inter-league competition, 1879-1976

1879-89

As the birthplace of Australian rules, and with advantages of population and finances, Victoria dominated the first hundred years of intercolonial and interstate football. This was the case in the first ever interstate game, held on Tuesday, July 1, 1879, at East Melbourne Cricket Ground. The final score was Victoria (represented by the VFA) 7 goals, 14 points to South Australia 0.3 — a margin of seven goals as points did not count unless both sides scored the same number of goals. The match was attended by more than 10,000 people, a big crowd for a weekday at that time. A self-governing colony is a colony with an elected legislature, in which politicians are able to make most decisions without reference to the colonial power with formal or nominal control of the colony. ... July 1 is the 182nd day of the year (183rd in leap years) in the Gregorian Calendar, with 183 days remaining. ... 1879 (MDCCCLXXIX) was a common year starting on Wednesday (see link for calendar). ... The East Melbourne Cricket Ground (EMCG) was a sports venue vocated in East Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. ...

The third and fourth teams to commence intercolonial competition were New South Wales and Queensland, playing each other in a two-game series in Brisbane in 1884; the result of the series was a one-all draw. Tasmania played its first game, against Victoria, in 1887. New Zealand entered the competition with a victory over NSW in Sydney, in 1889. Brisbane (pronounced ) is the capital and most populous city of the Australian state of Queensland, and is the third largest city in Australia, with a population of just under 2 million. ...

1890-1907

Victoria's long-term dominance briefly faltered in the 1890s, when other Colonies recorded their first ever wins over the VFA: South Australia in Adelaide in 1890 and 1891 and Tasmania in Hobart in 1893 (twice). In 1897, the VFL split from the VFA and the two selected separate representative teams, further weakening Victoria in intercolonial competition, which became interstate competition following Federation of the six British colonies in Australia, in 1901. For other uses, see Adelaide (disambiguation). ... For other places and things named Hobart, see Hobart (disambiguation). ... The federation of Australia was the process by which the six separate British colonies of New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria and Western Australia formed a federation. ...

Western Australia played its first two interstate games in 1904, including a win over SA in Adelaide.

1908-18

The VFL's dominance, at least within Victoria, was established by the time an interstate carnival was held for the first time — in Melbourne in 1908 — to celebrate the golden jubilee of "Australasian football" (as it was known at the time). The widening gap between the three major footballing States/leagues and the others was shown in the organisation of the competition: the VFL, SA and WA comprised "Section A", and Tasmania, NSW, Queensland and NZ were relegated to "Section B". The VFA did not take part and the carnival was New Zealand's last appearance in representative football. The VFL team went through the competition undefeated. A Golden Jubilee is a celebration held to mark a 50th anniversary of a monarchs reign. ...

This impression was reiterated by the 1911 carnival, in Adelaide, which also set the pattern of a carnival every three years. The VFL lost only one game, against SA. At the Sydney carnival of 1914, the VFL was once again undefeated. Following the onset of World War I, interstate matches then went into a five year hiatus.

State of Origin, 1977-99

West Australian State of Origin guernsey.

By the 1970s, VFL clubs were signing up an increasing number of the best players from other states and Victoria dominated state games. West Australians, led by the marketing manager of the Subiaco Football Club, Leon Larkin, began to campaign for players to be selected according to state-of-origin rules. The West Australian Football League (WAFL) negotiated with the VFL for two years before agreement was reached on the format. Image File history File links WA-1995. ...

In the first such game, at Subiaco Oval in Perth, on October 8, 1977, Western Australia defeated Victoria, 23.13 (151) to 8.9 (57), a huge reversal of the results in most previous games. In the words of one football historian: Subiaco Oval (, ) is the major sports stadium in Perth, Western Australia. ... Perth is the capital of the Australian state of Western Australia. ... October 8 is the 281st day of the year in the Gregorian Calendar (282nd in leap years). ... For the album by Ash, see 1977 (album). ...

A Western Australian team comprised entirely of home-based players had, on 25 June, taken on a VFL team containing many of the same players who would return to Perth three and a half months later for the state of origin clash. The respective scores of the two matches offered a persuasive argument, if such were needed, of the extent to which the VFL had denuded the WAFL of its elite talent:

• On 25 June 1977 VFL 23.16 (154) defeated Western Australia 13.13 (91) - a margin of 63 points
• On 8 October 1977 Western Australia 23.13 (151) defeated Victoria 8.9 (57) - a margin of 94 points, representing an overall turn around of 157 points

Western Australia's previous biggest winning margin against a Victorian state team had been a mere 38 points in 1948. Almost overnight, an inferiority complex was dismantled: Victoria, it seemed, was not intrinsically superior, only wealthier.[2]

Possibly the largest attendance at a state of origin match was recorded in 1989, when a crowd of 91,960 people attended a game at the Melbourne Cricket Ground between Victoria, featuring greats of the game such as Gary Ablett, Tony Lockett, Jason Dunstall and Terry Daniher, and South Australia, featuring Andrew Jarman, Stephen Kernahan and Craig Bradley. The selection of Dunstall (who won the E.J. Whitten Medal for best Victorian player) and Daniher, who were born in and recruited from Queensland and New South Wales respectively, exemplified the often loose and constantly mutating selection rules applied in state of origin games. This reached farcical levels the following year, when the selectors of a "New South Wales" team (captained by Daniher) were allowed to include any player who had played for Sydney, resulting in the inclusion of players from several states. Later, controversy also surrounded the selection for South Australia of the NSW-born and raised Wayne Carey, after his best-on-ground performances. 1989 (MCMLXXXIX) was a common year starting on Sunday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

E. J. Whitten Legends game

Following the death of Ted Whitten — who is regarded as one of the finest ever players of Australian rules — from prostate cancer in 1995, his son Ted Whitten Jr organised an interstate charity match between teams comprised of retired players, to raise money for research into the disease. The only two teams which have taken part in these games are Victoria and the All Stars, who represent the rest of Australia. The first E. J. Whitten Legends Game was played at Whitten Oval in 1995, and it has become an annual event. The games have often attracted crowds of over 10,000, and this has resulted in them being moved from Whitten Oval to Optus Oval, Adelaide Oval (South Australia) and the Telstra Dome. Edward James Ted Whitten (born July 27, 1933, died August 17, 1995) was an Australian rules football player, considered by many as being one of the greatest players of all time: in 1966, he was the first inductee to the Australian Football Hall of Fame and given Legend status. ...

Games between state leagues, 1991-

Games between sides representing players in the VFL (VFA before 1996), SANFL, WAFL, AFL Queensland, AFL Canberra and AFL Sydney still occur, with most leagues usually playing one interstate game each year. Frontline AFL players are generally excluded from these games, although members of AFL rookie lists often play. Tasmania hasn't played a representative match since 1999, after the statewide league folded and separate North and South leagues were introduced. The Northern Territory Football League (now AFL-NT) has opted for challenging AFL or other league clubs just before the end of their season. They haven't played against another league since 1995.
