NSW Targets Historic Sweep in Women's Origin Series

The 2025 Women's State of Origin series concludes with Game 3 in Newcastle, where NSW seeks to complete the first 3-0 clean sweep since the series expanded to a best-of-three format. NSW has already secured the title with decisive wins in Game 1 (32-12) and Game 2 (26-6), while Queensland aims to avoid a historic sweep. The final game, despite its 'dead rubber' status, is expected to attract a large crowd, reflecting the rapid growth of women's rugby league. Queensland faces lineup changes due to injuries, but NSW is fielding an unchanged side. The series' evolution from a single match to a three-game contest has heightened competition and fan interest. Newcastle, renowned for strong rugby league support, will host this milestone match.
