State Of Origin 2014 New South Wales vs Queensland Match 1 will begin 28th May in Suncorp Stadium @ 8.05 pm Wednesday. State of Origin Game 1 is just around the corner and both the Queensland Maroons and NSW Blues have been named for what should be an explosive clash up at Suncorp Stadium.
NSW got to within two points of breaking the Maroons dominance in the last game of last year series, 12-10 losses.
It was the third year in the row the series went to the third game and NSW had edges, which are closer to a series victory since the QLD white-wash of 2010, looked well placed at the beginning of this year to register their first origin series win since 2005 every year.
However, several wounded and some of the players from last years team struggling to find form have seen a serious shake-up for the NSW Blues side this year with a lot of new faces in the backline including a new combination of a half and five-eight.

Canterbury of Trent Hodkinson and Josh Reynolds, which led their side to eight wins from ten games this season, have been selected as the halves over the top of out-of-form James Maloney and Mitchell Pearce roosters.
It is the first taste of origin while Hodkinson Reynolds played in the finals last year only 15mins. It will be a huge challenge for the couple charged with producing enough points to Queensland is back-line that on club level, enjoy playing behind one of the greatest forward packs in the league often have the advantage over their opposition.
As Maroons concludes the condition of origin series of 2014 with the same team as they start, their team will have eight players to at least 20 origin games played and qualify for the coveted Dick “Tosser” Turner medal.
If the Blues reach a similar flat-rate campaign, they have only one; Järryd fullback Hayne.
It is so true that a Gene Miles one-handed offload that winning teams are easier to pick up than those who must constantly be pulled from the canvas but there is an undeniable sense of unity in the Maroons camp that feeds all the way down from the Committee.
Josh Papalii, Chris McQueen and Ben Te’o have not been in the same form for their clubs in 2014, who served them origin selection in the first place, but a week spent in the company of their brethren Queensland will see their performances improve drastically.
Blues coach Laurie Daleys hand was forced with suspensions and injuries within the established as Greg Bird and Andrew Fifita but when Mitchell Pearce was entangled in the late night hijinks that pulled the new South Wales Police anger less than three weeks from game one, Daley took the position.
Not only was Pearce removed from Committee discussions but roosters team-mate James Maloney went with him despite a starring role in a return of the Wests Tigers in round 9 against damage.
Instead, come the irresistible Josh Reynolds and his partner halves Bulldogs Trent Hodkinson while cocks flyer Daniel Tupou an exciting add-on to a backline with a lot of potential.
It is in the forward, but where Daley went in search of a containment crew instead of the next generation of great Blues “bookends”.
There are six players in the NSW forward rotation 30 years or older, including the spiritual leaders of the team at Paul Gallen and Robbie Farah. Beau Scott has earned a recall for the first time since game three, 2012 while Ryan Hoffman maintains the position he held last year, seven years after his debut in origin.
Although still very accomplished first-graders, it is hard to believe that Anthony Watmough or Luke Lewis the best days are in front of them so the question deserves to be asked whether they are the right men to blow in a new dynasty of Blues or just men for now.
Maroons have a debutant (Aidan Guerra) and Blues two (Hodkinson and Tupou) but origin experience weighs heavily in Queensland cast to the tune of 233 games for 124.
Origin games won very rarely use carefully contrived plays perfectly done to expose the opposition defense.
