Lauren Brown, a standout player for the Maroons, is poised to step into a new role as Queensland heads into Game Three of the series, looking to avoid a historic whitewash.
Last year, her pivotal 69th-minute field goal against New South Wales contributed to a dramatic turnaround that led Queensland to an 11-10 victory, setting the stage for a series clinching 22-6 win.
In the upcoming match, Brown will play as halfback, facing a different challenge as the Blues aim to complete a 3-0 series sweep.
Additionally, Brown expressed concern over the social media abuse directed towards her skipper, Ali Brigginshaw, following the team's two initial losses.
She affirmed that the players and the squad stood firmly behind Brigginshaw, emphasizing that while many fans offer support, "most fans were supportive and knew not to cross the line."
