Every Rugby League fan knows that it is never too early to begin talking about State of Origin football - even if it's before the first-grade season has started.

As one of the quickest players in the league, at just 23 years of age, the Titans winger has proven to be one of the most dangerous outside backs in the league over the past two seasons.
