State of Origin Game 1 LIVE updates: NSW Blues vs Queensland Maroons; Daley, Slater name strong squads with kick off at 8.05pm from Accor Stadium
I’m panicking right about now if I’m Laurie Daley.
Kalyn Ponga, Selwyn Cobbo and Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow team-up to march the ball 60 metres up field on the first tackle after some beautiful deception from Ponga draws the Blues defenders in.
The ‘Hammer’ makes his way up the left edge, and with the Maroons in strike-range, the Queensland spine once again combine to score in this match.
It’s Harry Grant who offloads out the back to Sam Walker, who only has to pass to big man Tom Flegler for him to score under the posts.
That’s poor defence from NSW, with Flegler allowed to go across untouched.
Queensland 12, NSW 10 after 13 minutes
