The Women’s 2023 State of Origin title will be decided in Game II, live and free on Channel 9 and 9Now on Thursday, June 22 at 7:30 pm AEST.
With the match taking place in Townsville, the Queensland Maroons can secure the title at home provided they are not defeated by more than eight points on the points aggregate format for the series.
The New South Wales Sky Blues feature NRLW stars Isabelle Kelly, Millie Boyle, Jessica Sergis and Emma Tonegato leading the charge to bring the shield back to NSW.
The Maroons led by Ali Brigginshaw will feature Tamika Upton, Shenae Cleslolka and Zahara Temara.
China Polata will replace Julia Robin after she was handed a one-game ban for an elbow strike on Isabelle Kelly in the first match of the series.
Nine’s coverage will be hosted by Danika Mason, assisted by experts Phil Gould, Allana Ferguson and Johnathan Thurston, commentator Peter Psalltis, and Emma Lawrence alongside Darren Lockyer on the sideline.
