Queensland want some sweet revenge and will look to even up the series when Game 2 of the State of Origin is broadcast EXCLUSIVELY LIVE on Channel 9 and 9Now on Sunday night.
Sunday night at 7.00pm, it’s Game 2 of the men’s State of Origin series, with a guaranteed fiery clash after the sublime NSW Blues demolished an underprepared Maroons squad 50-6 in Game 1.
The Maroons have shaken up their team with several changes, bringing in the big enforcer, Josh Papalii, and veteran hooker Andrew McCullough.
But all eyes will be on the controversial selection of freakish teenager Reece Walsh at fullback, picked with just seven NRL games to his name.
NSW are unchanged apart from the inclusion of star Roosters forward Angus Crichton.
Suncorp Stadium is the cauldron for this enthralling encounter – a venue that has traditionally brought little joy to NSW. And with a sellout home crowd behind them, the Maroons cannot be written off despite the odds against them.
Comedy duo Roy and HG return with their own brand of hilarious advice on just how to win an Origin game, and ARIA Award-winning band Sheppard will perform before the kick-off.
Viewers will have the option to stream the game live on 9Now and also watch four supplementary streams to enhance the action:
- Coaches Cam – NSW Coach Brad Fittler and QLD Coach Paul Green
- Player Cam – NSW star Tom Trbojevic
- Player Cam – QLD star Cameron Munster
