Queensland Keep State of Origin Series Alive

  • Queensland defeated New South Wales 26-24 in game two of the 2025 State of Origin series at Perth's Optus Stadium to level the series.
  • Queensland's strong first half, scoring four unanswered tries for a 26-6 lead, followed a poor first-half showing by NSW marked by eight penalties and ill discipline.
  • Despite NSW mounting a furious second-half comeback with five tries, including a hat-trick from Brian To'o, their poor goal kicking, missing three attempts, prevented a series win in two matches.
  • Maroons coach Billy Slater, 41, apologized in a press conference for remarks amid a feud labeled 'Grubgate' and urged his team to embrace pressure despite being 1-0 down in the series.
  • The tie sets up a series decider in Sydney on 9 July, as Queensland's win breaks a three-game losing streak in Perth and keeps their hopes alive.
