State of Origin 3 2019, the NSW vs Queensland decider: it's here. Will the Blues prevail or can the Maroons make a come-back as champions? It’s unsuccessful.

Another bomb from Maloney to him - he takes it well, before Frizell tries to absolutely hammer him after he’s landed. #Origin.
The hosts took a blow when Michael Morgan collided with the elbow of McGuire early in the second half, forcing him off the pitch. NSW will have to defend well here, QLD have momentum. QLD will take the two, a fairly easy shot. But while Queensland were on top, strict officiating restricted the flow of the match. David Klemmer 11. NSW then ragdoll Dane Gagai back in-goal, it appears a great play before there’s a penalty for a flop! 26 min: Both sides trade solid sets, and there’s a heavy hit from Addo-Carr on a falling Gagai after he takes a bomb.
