We'll see you very soon more, Bascal for the WMBL. Hello right, there we go. Let's continue on with this amazing what I have totally researched, this amazing history. So the explained was a residing successful after another one off match in 1981. The full free game state of origin series was the official born of 1982. The Garden finally had its commotion. We are now up to select to the decade of Diamondines and Destriction. The nineteen eighties began with a Queensland storm led by the men they called the king. Wiley Lewis the Monsons was document. Lewis wasn't just a player, he was the monster. Popularity of Queensland team that moved to his Libin. He captained the Morrisons in 30 of his 31 games, winning a record eight men of the match award, which is incredible. Queensland won the first two fall series in 1982 and 1983, building a Dineson formation on per Passion and Lewis. Monthein comment of the game. But the tide turned in 1985 when New South Wales finally broke there through the series win. There overwhelmed Captain Steve Montheimer dropped to his knees and kissed the Sydney cricket ground turf in a now icon moment of she released. The blue blackered it up with the first ever free nil clean sweep in 1986, but Queensland, filled by that vanilla sense of injustice, came rolling back to win free straight from 1987 to 1989. The new 90s saw a golden era for the New South Wales, coached by Phil Golden and led by Garden of Legends like Larry Daly, Ricket Stewart, and Brad Fitted. The Blue assisted their own brand of domination. Winning their three commentation series from 1992 to 1994. The Riley had a become a Branton tugwar. The 1991 image of a rain stock. Willie Lewis snortling nose to nose with the New South Wales NSW in foothood Mark Gary. Preferly captain the raw emotion. This was no longer just a sport. It was deeply personal. Then came their destiny. After appealed of the Blue successful in the early 2000s, Queensland unleashed a round of domination unlikely anything seen before from 2006 to 2013. Their Moors won eight straight series for the new South Wales NSW. It was like hunching a brick wall that rebuilt itself stronger than every single year. The era began the dreaming trailing late in the 2006 deck of Queensland captain Darren Lucky sneaked a losing pass. Oh it's so painful and scored the winning winning touchdown try. It was a moment of Hilvia's NSW heartbroke the kick off decode of pain. This Morris team, future Cameron Smith, Jonathan Philford, Billy Slain and Greg in Glitz played with an almost telephone commentary unbeliever finding ways to snitch a victory from the jaws of defeat and shattered blues hat. Well we come to select three with the modern Grand Knitzer Wales Bonnie shattered late year street in twenty fourteen, unless a tri wave of pool relief south of the border. In the years since Penn has swarmed back and forth by the weight of the destiny still fuse every single contest. It's the ghost that punch every stadium. For the blues, every series is about hearing they're no longer in Queensland shadows for the moons. It's about defeating a scale legend. The model games are no less rudent than the writers has simply intuitive. The open bruise of the eighties has been replaced by Cold War forfeit in philosophy, warfall and surgery. Bone drawing hits. The pressure is heavily than ever. Every series adds a new body chapter and new heroes and the villain are forget over night. The 2024 series, just recent, was a perfect example. After dropping the opening game, the New South Wales stormed back to win that net two, claiming that they go in Brisbane to take the shattered. But Queensland, as they always do, come back with a victory. The 2025 series saw the Blues with the opening in Brisbane, putting the Mons on the brick. In a classic comeback, Queensland caught the next two away games to claim the decade and the series proving once again that you can never ever write them off. Tom Dadeland, a standout for Queensland Captain the State, relies in spirit and was named player of the series. Of course officials, Queensland has won 25 in New South Wales 17, which is two drawn series. But those numbers don't tell the full story. They don't capitalise the feeling of the state holding its breath as a kick sells towards the post after the siren. They don't expect the war of 80,000 people that feels like a fiscal force and the essentially don't explain why for three nights a year. Everything else in Australia simply s stops. Well we do come to the end, ladies and gentlemen. I hope you enjoy it. From the Bon Um foundliness of the old system to the birth of Legend in Arthur B. Stone from the regular of King Wheelie to question the weight of the eight year destination every chapter has poured on history and meaning onto the nets. It's a show of heart led rolling down the hill forever forty years, getting bigger and more unstoppable with every season. Satan Origin is more than a game because it's born from glory fights for respect. It's a family hair loot of animation passing down the actual throne and warm into Australian very NDA. It's the granded match that will never end. What's your most unforgetted state origin? Was it a miracle try? Is it breathing hit or heartstopping finish?
