The second game of the 2015 State of Origin series is set to be held at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Wednesday, June 17, with the kick-off scheduled for 8:00pm (AEST).

Although the game has a scheduled start time of 8:16pm, a delay of fifteen minutes or so is likely. Game 1 was officially scheduled to start at 8:16pm (AEST), and actually kicked off at 8:22pm AEST. We may see a similar situation occur in Game 2.
