Queenslander Papali'i believes NSW can benefit from Maroons' hard-working Origin blueprint for success.
As a proud Queenslander, Josh Papali'i couldn't care less what the NSW Blues do, but he does think the Maroons' successful Origin blueprint could work for the Cockroaches.
New Blues coach Michael Maguire's inaugural State of Origin squad has been likened to a typical Queensland one - full of Maroon-collared workers willing to give everything for the jersey.
That's in contrast to the usual star power NSW sides were renowned for.
