Queensland have won more Origins than NSW, and they haven’t lost a decider since 2005, when Andrew Johns was running around for Blues. But if you match up each of tonight’s players head-to-head, it’s Brad Fittler’s side who have the statistical edge.
Yes! The Origin curtain-raiser ahead of Game 3 will feature the under 20s State of Origin and kick-off at 5:15pm (AEST).
The pre-match entertainment ahead of the Origin 3 decider will feature Guy Sebastian and start at around 7:30pm (AEST) on ANZ Stadium.
