QLD Maroons Women Form - Maroons Edged Out In Game 1
Queensland showed plenty of positives in Game 1 despite the loss. The Maroons defended strongly for long periods and were dominant through the middle during stages of the first half before injuries disrupted their rotation.
Keilee Joseph was enormous through the middle before suffering a head knock, while Otesa Pule provided immediate impact off the bench with a try.
The biggest issue for Queensland was their inability to execute in attacking territory late in the match, with handling errors (70% completion rate) and fatigue costing them momentum.
QLD Maroons Team News
Queensland have largely resisted major changes despite the Game 1 defeat.
Phoenix-Raine Hippi has been ruled out with a hamstring injury, opening the door for Jasmine Peters to come into the starting side. Destiny Mino-Sinapati has also been included in the extended squad and could make her Origin debut.
There is also concern surrounding forwards Makenzie Weale and Keilee Joseph after both suffered head knocks in Newcastle. Coach Nathan Cross has included both players in the squad but will wait on final medical clearance before confirming his game-day team.

NSW Blues Women Form - Blues Edge Series Opener
The Blues once again showed why they are the benchmark side in women’s Origin football. Their defence absorbed Queensland’s early pressure before Jesse Southwell took control with her kicking game and composure in clutch moments.
Southwell’s field goal in Game 1 was the first of her professional career and highlighted the maturity of the young halfback under pressure. NSW controlled large portions of the second half and looked the more organised side once the game tightened up.
The Blues spine continues to impress, with Keeley Nizza, Jocelyn Kelleher and Southwell steering the side around effectively, while Olivia Kernick and Kennedy Cherrington provide relentless effort through the middle.
