In the 2025 State of Origin Game 3, Xavier Coates of the Queensland Maroons scored the first try, giving his team an early advantage.
This moment came after an earlier missed opportunity when Hamsio Tabuai-Fidow couldn't hold onto the ball.
The successful try was set up after the ball moved through Cameron Munster and debutant Gehamat Shibasaki, who recorded his first Origin try assist.
Coates skillfully leaped over the try-line to secure the point for Queensland.
