2023 State Of Origin - Game One (Contains Spoilers) The long awaited and eagerly anticipated event had finally arrived, and a nation could barely contain its excitement as the State of Origin series for 2023 got underway with the first game between the Blues of New South Wales and Queensland's Maroons in Adelaide, at the Adelaide Oval.
Billy Slater´s Queensland won the series last year by 2-1 after losing in 2021 to Brad Fittler's Blues, and no side has retained the trophy since New South Wales in 2019.
The bookies had the Blues as slight favourites to take the opening win on neutral territory but close to their own soil, but with a handicap of just two they thought that it would be a close-run thing between two side, evenly matched on paper.
As kick-off approached, the excitement was palpable.
