Billy Slater is facing criticism for his recent actions, with many accusing him of prioritizing his own interests over the greater good of the state.
It seems like the pressures of State of Origin have finally gotten to the Queensland coach, causing him to make questionable decisions.
In the past, New South Wales was known for having a strong lineup, but often ended up shooting themselves in the foot with poor choices.
Now, it's Queensland who seem to be self-sabotaging by overlooking their talented players - all because of Billy Slater's apparent grudge against David Fifita.
Despite his polished appearance and fancy vocabulary, Slater's actions suggest either a lack of judgment or a personal vendetta against Fifita.
His persistent exclusion of the talented back-rower has reached such absurd levels that it wouldn't be surprising if he passed over him for a mere pineapple, a decision that many believe he made by selecting Kurt Capewell instead.
