State of Origin

A series of 3 Rugby League games held each year in Australia between teams from New South Wales and Queensland.

Started in 1980, the series has achieved legendary status and is now the showpiece of world rugby league. Teams are selected from the best players in the NRL, based on where the players played their junior rugby league. As a result the matches are usually filled with exciting plays, individual brilliance and memorable tries.

A similar concept was attempted by the AFL during the 1980's but failed dismally.

SOO (abbrev.) Individual matches are referred to as SOO1, SOO2 and SOO3.

depoop

Verb. To remove a prawn's digestive system during the shell peeling process.

A prawn (or shrimp) will normally shit itself when it realises it has just been thrown into boiling water or on a barbecue. Therefore after the prawn is cooked, and you peel off the shell, you will find a string of black stuff running down its back. This can be easily removed by digging the index finger in just behind its head, grabbing the black string-like thing and pulling down towards the tail. This is commonly known as "depooping".
Hey, did you depoop this prawn? I see black stuff !!
