Airdate: Women’s State of Origin II

Women’s State of Origin Game II screens live across Nine tonight from Newcastle.

Coverage is hosted by Emma Lawrence, assisted by Phil Gould, Allana Ferguson, Peter Psaltis and Darren Lockyer, with Marlee Silva on the sideline.

After a sizzling attacking performance in their opening game win, the New South Wales Sky Blues will bring an unchanged lineup to clinch the series in front of a sold-out home crowd in Newcastle.

Ready to put on a show will fleet-footed Sky Blues backs Jaime Chapman, Emma Tonegato and Isabelle Kelly, while experienced forwards Millie Elliot (nee Boyle), Kezie Apps and Yasmin Clydsdale look to get the upper hand in what poses as a hostile encounter.

The legend of Origin football famously reminds us that you can never count the Queensland Maroons out. This time their captain, Ali Brigginshaw, and NRLW Dally M Medallist, Tamika Upton, are on hand to plot another famous Queensland underdog win in enemy territory.
