State Of Origin - Round 1
The first 2022 State Of Origin match between the Maroons and Blues will be played at Sydney's Stadium Australia from around 8:10pm tonight. The Maroons are ranked as underdogs in the first round round of this ultimate annual competition and the Blues will striving heroically for an early win - so viewers can expect some very hard-fought, action packed footy from both teams. This year, State Of Origin will also have a local touch with Cherbourg's Selwyn Cobbo putting on his first Maroons jersey after a meteoric rise through the ranks, and Cherbourg will be holding a big community screening of tonight's clash at the Cherbourg Sports Complex in Collins Road along with a sausage sizzle, popcorn, fruit and soft drinks that is expected to draw a huge crowd. In the remainder of the South Burnett, most clubs and hotels in the region will be broadcasting the match on big screen TVs (and a few will be running special State Of Origin nights), or you can stay at home out of the chilly winter weather and watch all the action on free to air TV.
