See You In Melbourne For Origin Decider...

Last night, Queensland whooped New South Wales butt in Origin II.
Final Score:
Maroons 30
Blues 6

Storm Boys Dallas Johnson and Cameron Smith did such a great job for Queensland.

It's official - State of Origin III, to be held in Melbourne on July 5th at Telstra Dome, will be the decider. Whoever wins, takes the series. It promises to be quite the game and the atmosphere should be incredible. Last I heard there were only about 2,000 tickets left.

The only negative for Queensland was that Steve Bell was injured after being head-butted by Manly 'team mate', Steve Menzies. Poor Belly will be out for 4-6 weeks and will miss Origin 3 in Melbourne. Bugger. With team mates like Menzies - you certainly don't need enemies :(
