Maroons win epic Origin decider over NSW

Murray Wenzel | July 13, 2022

A Ben Hunt intercept try has clinched a dramatic State of Origin decider for Queensland against NSW, winning 22-12 in Brisbane.

Three men exited the game inside the first three minutes with concussion, while Matt Burton and Dane Gagai were sin-binned for a fight that triggered an all-in brawl.

But somehow the Maroons, with a two-man bench in front of 52,385 rabid fans, overcame a 12-10 half-time deficit to clinch a ninth win from the last 10 Origin deciders.
