As the Brad Fittler era reaches its natural end point, what sort of a sendoff will New South Wales prepare for their beleaguered coach? With three State of Origin series wins to his name, it’s not been all bad but the diminishing returns have been stark, and he now faces the ignominy of bowing out in the most humiliating of circumstances.
Not only has it been 13 years since the last State of Origin whitewash, but Queensland have the chance to apply the icing, the cherry and the sprinkles on NSW’s home turf. Accor Stadium will be a miserable place at kick-off – lose again and the atmosphere could turn seriously ugly.
If that were to transpire, Billy Slater would go down as just the fourth man to pull off a clean sweep as both a player and a coach, and the way the last game went, it’s almost impossible to envisage any other outcome.
Fittler has swung the axe ahead of his probable last game in charge, dropping five players, most notably Jarome Luai, who couldn’t put a foot right three weeks ago. Damien Cook has been named at hooker after the bizarre decision to play him as a centre went as disastrously as everybody predicted it would.
AJ Brimson has been brought into the lineup in place of the suspended Reece Walsh for Queensland, who know that whatever happens tonight, Dale Cherry-Evans will be lifting the shield. But clean sweeps don’t come around too often, and the entire setup will go down in legend if they secure it.

NSW Blues: 1. James Tedesco (c), 2. Brian To’o, 3. Stephen Crichton, 4. Bradman Best, 5. Josh Addo-Carr, 6. Cody Walker, 7. Mitchell Moses, 8. Jake Trbojevic, 9. Damien Cook, 10.

Tino Fa’asuamaleaui, 11. David Fifita, 12. Jeremiah Nanai, 13. Patrick Carrigan; Interchange: 14. Ben Hunt, 15. Lindsay Collins, 16. Moeaki Fotuaika, 17. Corey Horsburgh; Reserves: 18.

State of Origin live streams around the world
It’s only natural that you might want to watch a free State of Origin Game 3 live stream from your home country, but what if you’re travelling overseas when the cricket is on?
Look no further than a VPN, or virtual private network. A VPN makes it look as if you’re surfing the web from your home country, rather than the one you’re in. That means you can access the streaming services you already pay for, from anywhere on Earth. Or anywhere that has an internet connection, at least.
They’re totally legal, inexpensive and easy to use. We’ve tested lots of the best VPN services and our favorite right now is ExpressVPN. It’s fast, works on loads of devices and even offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Download and install a VPN – as we say, our top choice is ExpressVPN.
2. Connect to the appropriate server location – open the VPN app, hit ‘choose location’ and select the appropriate location, eg: ‘Australia’ for 9Now.
3. Go to the broadcaster’s stream – head to your home broadcaster’s site or app and watch as if you were at home – 9Now for Aussies abroad.
