NSW Blues face Queensland Maroons in the opening game of State of Origin 2026 at Accor Stadium in Sydney, with kick-off at 8.05pm AEST. Coach Harry Grant discussed the new halves pairing and Sam Walker's influence on the team.

"It's been enjoyable to build that combination," Grant said. "Really talented players individually and hopefully both those boys can bring that creativity tonight."
