The much-anticipated Game 1 of the 2025 State of Origin series is set to take place in Brisbane on Wednesday evening, featuring a showdown between the QLD Maroons and the NSW Blues.
After their notable series victory last year on Queensland's home ground, the Blues have a chance to make history by becoming the first team since the mid-1990s to secure consecutive wins at Suncorp Stadium.
The Maroons, under coach Billy Slater, are bringing three debutants into the match: Robert Toia, Beau Fermor, and Trent Loiero.
In contrast, the Blues, coached by Laurie Daley, will see only Max King making his first appearance in this prestigious series.
