History is set to be made as the 2024 Women’s State of Origin series heads to a thrilling deciding Game III in Townsville, with New South Wales and Queensland locked in a fierce battle for supremacy.

The highly anticipated series has created an unprecedented three-match series between the powerhouse states, with the stakes higher than ever before.

After an initial victory by NSW in Game 1 at Suncorp Stadium, Queensland roared back with a stunning win in Game 2 in Newcastle, setting the stage for an epic decider.

With a sold-out Queensland Country Bank Stadium as the backdrop, the stage is set for the first-ever Women’s Origin Game III, promising a monumental clash between the Sky Blues and the Maroons.

Coach Kylie Holder will lead a determined NSW side into the decider, aiming to thwart Queensland’s bid for back-to-back victories, while eyeing a historic series win for her team.

Meanwhile, Queensland will be facing a late setback as hooker Destiny Brill is ruled out due to a calf injury, with Chelsea Lenarduzzi stepping in to bolster the Maroons’ lineup for the crunch clash.

The lineups are stacked with star talent, including the likes of Emma Tonegato, Jaime Chapman, Isabelle Kelly, and Tiana Penitani for NSW, and Tamika Upton, Julia Robinson, and Ali Brigginshaw for Queensland, ensuring a showdown full of electrifying action.

As the countdown to kickoff begins, all eyes will be on Townsville as history awaits, with Fox League and Kayo Sports offering fans the exclusive live coverage of this historic Women’s State of Origin decider.
