 UK Kick off time

The game is being shown on Watch NRL

Australia: kick-off scheduled for 7.45pm (AEDT).

There are 10 interchanges across the game which lasts for 70 minutes.

[Futtocks]

Here we go, in what will be a rainy match.

[Farmduck]

Why did Penitani take that tap kick right next to the sideline?

[Futtocks]

I didn't realise that this is going out live on both Channel 9 and Fox League. A very positive message for the women's game Down Under.

9min: Isabelle Kelly try for Blues

[Futtocks]

Kelly opens the scoring for NSW.

[Farmduck]

Southwell missed the goal.

NSW 4 - 0

[Farmduck]

No that ball was lost before the NSW player knocked it back.

[Farmduck]

Destiny Brill held up. Bunker should say NO TRY.

[Futtocks]

Destiny Brill held up over the line... no try.

[Farmduck]

Try to NSW? Was the ball already on the line when she touched it? No, says bunker. Knock-on NSW.

[Farmduck]

Hannah Southwell off with ankle injury after tripping over a blade of grass.

[Farmduck]

23min: this time Brill scores from dummy half. Qld on board. 4 - 4  ktc

[Farmduck]

Lauren Brown converts the try.  Qld  6 - 4

Good work by Qld to take the lead given the overall dominance by the Blues.

[Farmduck]

Harden off to HIA for Maroons. That was a strong contact. Think it was Togatuki

Rona Peters on as a replacement, and a noted hard tackler.

[Farmduck]

Sergis blew that try for NSW. All she had to do was catch the ball and fall over. ?@?#?$?#?@?%?$?%?^

[Farmduck]

Togatuki under the post but ref says Qld didn't get their advantage from the knock-on.

[Farmduck]

HT:   Qld  6   NSW  4

[Futtocks]

HIA for Togatuki.

[Farmduck]

Togatuki off for HIA

[Dunbar]

Going to be interesting how this last 30 minutes or so pans out.

You feel that the Maroons have more nouse in the spine but NSW have better running options out wide.  In the conditions I will still go with my tip of Queensland getting home.
