A Queensland Dynasty
Queensland reign supreme in State of Origin. After a weak showing at
the first game of the year losing 18-10 to NSW, Queensland shot back
at game two and struck a massive blow by handing down NSW their worst
loss ever, 30-0. A shut out that was last seen in 1995 when Queensland
won a hard fought battle 2-0. Tonight, Queensland kept their series
winning record intact having won 16-10 in Sydney, their second ever
win at ANZ Stadium. Previously Queensland also won the series in 2006
and 2007.
Queensland coach Mal Meninga now has a 3-0 record over NSW
after being appointed for the 2006 and 2007 series. This is the first time NSW has
succumbed to three consecutive series losses since the Origin concept
began in the early '80s.
