Queensland is simply a different beast when playing at Suncorp Stadium. The loss of Ponga and Inglis is a blow, but Oates, Cherry Evans and Glasby are solid replacements and will take great pride in the jersey. The +3.5 looks a nice start for a team that is playing with a chip on its shoulder.

i really like above thought about QLD....
here is the one good thought of rugby
Canes have been very flat and 12.5 points seems way out of wack. It has been awhile since the blues have beaten a NZ team and this could be their chance. Canes have not looked good since they played the Blues in Auckland and have lost 3 on the trot. Bounce of the ball goes the other way and they could be 0-5 here. I think teams have really worked out how to shut down their smaller pack which has not let that back-line flourish.
I've taken a little more risk here with Blues + 7.5 and also Blues straight up @ $4.50.
i thought chiefs, cans and warathas are safe bets today.. we have to be carefull today.. chiefs is top and do not care this game.. brumbies got still chance to be top 8 and will play with blood..warathas also same is and will not care too much..

Home underdogs have covered 4 of the last 5 Origins, while Queensland is simply a different beast when playing at Suncorp Stadium. The loss of Ponga and Inglis is a blow, but Oates, Cherry Evans and Glasby are solid replacements and will take great pride in the jersey. The +3.5 looks a nice start for a team that is playing with a chip on its shoulder.

NSW Coach Brad Fittler is on the verge of achieving a 3-0 Origin series victory as a coach. He did so as a player way back in 2000 and there aren't many people who can claim both achievements. NSW haven't had a 3-0 series victory since 2000, and even this great Queensland dynasty of recent years has achieved a clean sweep just once (2010). They don't happen often, and even less often in recent years. NSW have the team to win game three, but do they have the desire? They need to lift in front of a mostly QLD crowd. The series is over, and there are no NSW legends retiring from Origin at the end of this game for the Blues to rally around. All they have is the desire to win 3-0. I'm sure they would like to, but how much would they like to? Queensland have been stung by the loss, and they haven't had to feel that sting too often. It hurts, but they have an opportunity to end the series on a high note. They are also seeing out one of the all time greats of the game in Billy Slater. He may not be everyone's favourite player, but he is a favourite for many. He has given the game of rugby league plenty, and I think he has (almost single-handedly) changed the way the rugby league fullback plays the game. That, above and beyond all else, if his true legacy. Queensland won't be lifting the trophy on Wednesday night, but they will lift...and they will win.
Verdict – Queensland 26 to NSW 18
First try scorer – Corey Oates
Man of the Match – Josh McGuire
NSW 19 tires Josh Addo-Carr Latrell Mitchell Latrell Mitchell goals James Maloney 3/4 field goal James Maloney QLD 18 tires Valentine Holmes Corey Oates Will Chambers goals Valentine Holmes 3/4
