State Of Origin - Game 2
The second 2013 State Of Origin match between the Queensland Maroons and the NSW Blues will be held at Brisbane's Suncorp Stadium at 8:00pm tonight. The Maroons are striving for their eighth consecutive State Of Origin series win. And after seven straight years of being whomped by the Sunshine State, the Blues are desperate to stop them. In the first match on June 5, the Blues triumphed. But tonight the Maroons will be aiming to turn the tables - and this means tonight's match should be really great, edge-of-the-seat footy that's well worth watching. Naturally, South Burnett footy fans will be glued to TV screens around the region. But several local pubs and clubs will also be getting into the State Of Origin spirit tonight with big screen telecasts if you'd prefer to share the experience with other fans - check your local to see if they're one of them (they probably are).
