It’s Origin time again, the series that starts in May, It’s Blues against Maroons, with three huge games to play.

Queensland are the favourites, there are hungry to compete,
But the Blues are out for blood, their want to knock us off our feet.

Mal and Ricky have picked their teams, with seventeen men a side,
They’re here to play some footy, for the honor and the pride,
Cameron Smith is Queensland’s captain, a job which makes him proud,
As he inspires his fellow team, and the vocal Queensland crowd.

Paul Gallen is the other bloke, who leads the Blues, in this great fight,
New South Wales are the underdogs, they are out to set things right.
Queensland want to win this series, they’re out to make it seven,
I bet those blokes will smile, up there in Origin heaven.

80 minutes of football, with the blood, the sweat and tears,
It will be the greatest game, that we will see in years.
So grab your mates, let’s party, wear some Maroon or Blue,
Shout and cheer, show your support, your state is calling you!
