🔥 STATE OF ORIGIN IS HERE 🔥

The pub’s divided… 👀
Our publican might bleed blue 💙
…but up here we know who really runs the paddock. 😏

QUEENSLANDER! ❤️

Game night, cold beers, loud crowd, and one very nervous NSW supporter behind the bar. 🍻

Come watch the Maroons show the Blues how it’s done.
Kick-off, mates, and plenty of Origin banter guaranteed.
