State of Origin Game 2 is done and dusted and it’s happy days if you’re a Maroons fan – Queensland are the Origin champions once again after a 26-16 win at Suncorp Stadium last night.
That means the Maroons are the winners for the second year running and the tenth time in eleven years – yep, it’s pretty good time to be a Queenslander.

The side will now look ahead to Game 3 and Roarers, we are asking you this question: what changes, if any, should the Maroons look to make for that match?
They have the opportunity to go 3-0 in this series if they press hard for it, but on the other hand with the series wrapped up the chance is also there to blood some future Maroons talent.
Should Nate Myles come back in automatically if fit to play? Or did Jacob Lillyman perform well enough to hold him out of the side? What other potential changes should Queensland consider?
There’s bound to be a wide range of opinions, and we invite you in this Roar Forum to let us know what yours is in the comments below.
For your reference, here’s the full team from last night:
