  • 16 - JT & Adam Mogg - An Unlikely Hero

    It can take just one play to make someone an Origin hero. In the case of Adam Mogg, his two games for Queensland are as significant as any.

    In 2006, State of Origin was in its 25th year. New South Wales was coming off its third straight series victory and there was growing concern about the long-term future of State of Origin, as many commentators were beginning to wonder if Queensland would ever win another series.

    Up step the Toowoomba product, Adam Mogg. 

    In this episode of Stories of Origin, Adam Mogg and Jonathan Thurston sit down to discuss the 2006 series, the adversity they had to overcome, and the unlikely hero that would help trigger a decade of Queensland dominance.

  • 14 - Brett & Josh Morris - Whatever It Takes

    The 2014 State of Origin is best remembered for New South Wales' victory which ended Queensland's record run of eight straight series wins. 

    The opening game in front of a raucous Queensland crowd at Suncorp Stadium was a grueling affair. 

    The Blues won 12 - 8 in a demanding match, in large part thanks to the memorable performances of the Morris Twins.

    In this episode of Stories of Origin, Brett and Josh Morris take us through Game 1 of the 2014 drought-breaking series, and the courage, determination and resilience that ended Queensland's dominance.

  • 13 - Lockyer & Joey - Origin Reunited

    The 1998 State of Origin series featured some of the best Rugby League ever witnessed. 

    After three years of interruptions due to Super League, the best of the best were back to battle it out for interstate supremacy. Player for player, it was perhaps the strongest series ever staged.

    Champion Darren Lockyer wore the maroon of Queensland and the green and gold of Australia and with the Super League seasons behind him, was regarded as one of the world's best players.  

    It was his left boot that capped a remarkable Queensland comeback victory in Game One of the 1998 series.
