A record-breaking first half, in which NSW opened up a 34-0 lead – never seen before inside 40 minutes of Origin football – ensured the Blues head to Queensland on 17 July still in with a shout of winning their first series since 2021. The recalled Latrell Mitchell was among the try scorers after Liam Martin opened the scoring, while Brian To’o and Zac Lomax each grabbed two before the first half was up.
It took the Maroons 53 minutes before Jeremiah Nanai crossed the line; Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow and Murray Taulagi made further inroads in a far less intense second half during which just Dylan Edwards added to the Blues score, but it wasn’t enough to change the result, which had been effectively settled by half-time.
