State of Origin Game 2 is shaping up to be an absolute belter.
New South Wales trounced Queensland in the series opener, but the Maroons have called back some big names into their team for Origin 2: Thurston, Slater, Holmes…um…Glasby…
Likewise, we’ve called up one of our big guns, Tim Gore, to jump on the Roar LIVE panel as we preview this crucial second game.
We’ll be talking Queensland’s selection shake-up, tactics and predictions as well as having a crack at guessing what the Thursday morning headlines will be.
If you’ve got a penchant for puns, or just back yourself enough to guess how the game will play out, give us your guess for Game 2 headlines.
Will Mitchell Pearce break his Origin curse? Will Billy Slater rip the Blues to shreds? Will another protracted, bizarre decision from the Bunker turn the game on its head?
Let us know in the comments and we’ll get to as many as we can on the show.
Roar Live will be streamed this afternoon at around 5:45pm on The Roar’s Facebook page. It will also be available as a podcast on Soundcloud and iTunes.

NRL get their way by sending Storm and Rabbits to perth 10 days before SOO1 hoping to burn out the big 3 and Inglis (2 of which didn't end up playing). The big 3 rested and Sutton reffing get a Qld win up so as to make Channel Nine's day.

SOO dead! After a 50 - 0 scoreline showing the total dominance and longevity of this truly amazing NSW side it is feared that the fans north of the border will not be able to cope with the expected 5 year dominance of this perfectly coached side.

NSW Pearce on QLD. Then Mitchell gets photo with shield in front of wally statue at Suncorp after game 3. Then the " humble" Queenslanders will say... Talk to us when you've won 8 in a row.

Comparison are odious. Qld scraped home - Matty Bowen scoring in Golde Point - in Game 1 2005. This time around NSW thumped Qld. I dare say, if Qld do get home this year, they're in for some lean years.

Will did you 'borrow' this of Warren Smith? I'm sure he's used this often when Billy's run through a gap to score a try.
