STATE OF ORIGIN GAME 2

Rugby League’s newest podcast, Simply The Rest, analyses Game 2 of the 2023 State Of Origin Series.

There's been some key changes to both sides through injuries.

"I'd say the changes to the Blues have far more consequences than to Queensland," TBF League analyst, Johnny, said.

"The loss of Cleary is significant but I also don't like what Freddie [Brad Fitler] has done by taking Pangai Jnr out.

"If you're going to pick a bloke because you think he should be there [when others don't] then you need to back them beyond one game.

"Most of the top player rating analysts I know saw Pengai Jnr being the weak link for the Blues in Game 1.

"Freddie saw something different to what we could see.

"So back yourself for more than one game to prove us wrong."
