Kelleher: Upton to Face More High Ball Pressure

Bombs Away | Kelleher puts Upton on notice

Jocelyn Kelleher has issued a challenge to Maroons star Tamika Upton ahead of their upcoming match at Suncorp Stadium.

As NSW aims for consecutive Origin series victories, Kelleher is set to test Upton's skills under the high ball once more.

In her starting debut, Kelleher teamed up with Jesse Southwell, leading NSW to a narrow 11-6 victory two weeks ago.

Her series of torpedo kicks caused significant issues for Upton, who is often regarded as the best player in the game.

Despite her status, Upton made three handling errors due to relentless pressure from Kelleher and the Blues' kick chasers.

It appears that NSW's strategy will remain focused on applying similar pressure in Origin II.
