In a gutsy under dog performance, fighting for their survival - Queensland have held on, defeating New South Wales in Perth by 26 points to 24 in State of Origin Game 2, sending the series to a decider in Sydney.

And one thing has never been more true, it’s that you can never write Queensland off.

So, who will win the series? Can the Maroons go one more and down the blues at home? Or will the Blues finally put all the pieces together and seal the deal?

Michael Chammas and Christian Nicolussi from The Sydney Morning Herald, in Perth break down the match.
