2022 State of Origin Teams and Results
2022 SOO Game 1: May 2022 – NSW v QLD
The countdown to the Origin decider is on with the Maroons hosting the Blues at Suncorp Stadium with the series on the line in a do or die clash.
Read on for all the latest news and updates in the build-up to Origin III.
Five-eighth Cameron Munster was ruled out of the decider on Saturday after he returned a positive Covid-19 PCR test.
Queensland have called on a 21-year-old debutant to come into the 17 following the news, with Cowboys playmaker Tom Dearden given the go-ahead.
While the loss of the star playmaker has dominated headlines, captain Daly Cherry-Evans isn’t expecting any of his teammates to replicate the “unique piece” that is Munster.
Instead, with it all to play for in a couple of day’s time, the halfback sees game three as an opportunity for everyone to “step up” in front of the Brisbane crowd.
“We’ve spoken about how exciting it is and the great opportunity that we have to play in front of a Suncorp crowd for a decider,” Cherry-Evans said on Monday.
“As a Queenslander that’s so exciting. I think the one thing that we can’t do is we can’t expect them to win us the game.
“We want to give them something to cheer about, we don’t want to wait for them to have to cheer us on. We want to play a style of footy that’s going to bring the Queensland crowd into the game because we’re playing good football.”
Cherry-Evans is also looking forward to playing alongside both Ben Hunt and Dearden.
Hunt was leading the Dally M race when the count went behind closed doors at the end of May, while Dearden has helped the Cowboys surge up the ladder to second place.
“I’ve seen it as an opportunity, a great opportunity for everyone in the side to step up,” Cherry-Evans said.
“Obviously being the skipper I want to make sure that I’m really clear and really direct on where our team needs to go on Wednesday night.
“If we’ve got clear direction, I think everyone can play their best footy.
“We’re not trying to be anyone else, we’re just trying to make sure everyone in the side plays their best game and we believe that our best game can win on Wednesday night.”
Maroons coach Billy Slater knocked on Dearden’s door on Friday night to tell him that he’d been selected for one of the biggest games that the sport has to offer.
Cameron Munster has also called the 21-year-old to tell him that the Maroons all back him ahead of his debut.
“I don’t think there’s any time better to debut really (than) in a State of Origin decider at Suncorp,” Dearden said on the weekend.
“There’s obviously Queenslanders relying on us to get out there and win the game and do Queensland proud. I’ve got to do my job for Queensland.”
