The State of Origin decider is here, with the New South Wales Blues and Queensland Maroons set to do battle for the right to be crowned champions. As with any big event there is plenty going on in addition to the match, so we’ve got you covered with the full Origin 3 schedule to make sure you won’t miss a moment.

Fans have been advised to arrive to ANZ Stadium early – hardly a surprise with 85,000 expected to fill the ground for the match. The precinct around the venue will open at 4pm (AEST), while the ANZ Stadium gates will then open to let fans in at 5pm (AEST)

Kick-off in the Origin under 20s match is scheduled for 5:15pm (AEST). Fans can get a look at the future of both states with plenty of fringe NRL talent set to run around in the game. That match is scheduled to end at around 6:50pm (AEST) – they play slightly shorter halves of 35 minutes – and the presentation will follow shortly afterwards.

Pre-match entertainment for Game 3 will feature Guy Sebastian from 7:30pm (AEST), before the teams enter ANZ Stadium at around 8:05pm (AEST) – although that’s could well run later, pending on broadcaster requirements.

The Welcome To Country and National Anthem will then follow, with kick-off about five minutes later. Half-time is scheduled to be shortly before 9pm (AEST), with the game wrapping up at about 10pm (AEST).

The presentation ceremony, complete with player of the series announcement and Origin shield presentation, is scheduled for five minutes after full-time
