The impact of this Origin reaches beyond a normal series
It was the kind of victory that can imbue a new generation with Queensland folklore. Queensland has claimed a win that will be re-visited as long as Origin is played. A legend out of retirement. A coach under fire. A star rising. A journeyman on debut. A captain engulfed with emotion. It was all the famous storylines combined. From a NSW perspective, the defeat raised familiar questions about long standing cast members. The answers seem more definitive and that's not a good thing.

Why Piastri is seething and how it will colour the season ahead
Oscar Piastri said a lot without saying much at all. The Australian driver gave an air of quiet fury after a ten-second penalty cost him a famous win at the British Grand Prix and handed victory to his chief rival.
