North Queensland lived up to its reputation as a rugby league heartland, shattering the crowd attendance record for a Women’s State of Origin match with 18,275 at Queensland Country Bank Stadium to witness the spectacle. The near-full house heaved with energy as Queensland repelled a relentless New South Wales onslaught in the second half, turning away attack after attack to protect their lead. But with a minute left on the clock New South Wales were awarded a penalty try after Shenae Ciesiolka led with her foot to prevent a try. The Sky Blues inexplicably allowed time to all-but elapse setting up the shot at goal. leaving them with too little to on the clock to achieve the eight point margin needed to win the aggregate series.Tamika Upton was outstanding at fullback for Queensland. scoring a try and making a number of vital one-on-one tackles in the first half when the game was still in the balance. Maroons five-eighth Tarryn Aiken was the most creative half on the field. setting up a four-pointer and scoring a spectacular highlight reel try of her own. She now has three tries and four try assists in five Women’s State of Origin games.
