Laurie Daley has issued a rallying cry to his NSW troops, the coach declaring they have a chance to be remembered "for all time" if they can pull off a State of Origin series win in Brisbane.
The 2026 title will be decided at Suncorp Stadium on July 8 after Queensland levelled the series in Melbourne, running in six second-half tries to turn a four-point halftime deficit into a 44-24 victory.
Rampaging winger Selwyn Cobbo scored a hat-trick while fearless young halfback Sam Walker earned man-of-the-match honours in just his second Origin match, engineering their attack and also adding 16 points with his boot.
Queensland skipper Cameron Munster was forced off for a HIA late in the first half and said he could see something brewing as he watched the game from the change-rooms.
